Little sisters are special.
It isn’t often that they get to be smarter than the oldest, but when they do, they sure do make it count.
Sometimes it is ok to show your weakness, fears, and tears. It is ok to be vulnerable. Even to your little sister.
When I was a kid, I could not cry in front of my sisters. It upset them so much. I was their protector. There was no one for me to lean on so I learned how to stuff my fears and anxieties.
Now? Now, I am a mess. But my little sister doesn’t care that I am a failure.
She loves me anyway. She has so much that I can learn from.
She is strong.
She loves unconditionally.
She wears her tears with honor.
I want to be my baby sister when I grow up!
