Once I had 6 siblings but now I have 5 - five sisters, all older than me. I am that oft dreaded baby of the family. Of course I describe myself as Cinderfella! But the truth is I have 5 amazing sisters. They are all incredibly bright and strong and unique and special.
I am not sure I have ever told each of them how much I admire, respect and of course love them. They are so different and yet I have this special bond with each of them. Sometimes I can feel them inside of me or in my head.
Siblings are special because they do not own you. Parents own you. Spouses own you. But siblings (and children) share you. You have more in common with your siblings than you have with any other person in the world. That is not just those genetically bonded siblings. It is also those children of the heart who share common parents of the heart.
So - if you have a sibling make certain that you let them know.
