Our parents get a lot of attention on Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, and rightly so because they have very special places in our hearts! But this past Thursday was National Siblings Day, a day to celebrate our brothers and sisters - people who I think deserve just as much attention. Because no matter how mad they can make us or how much they may annoy us sometimes, our siblings are without a doubt some of the best and most important people in our lives.
They’re the people we grew up with and who know everything about us. From getting each other in trouble and being in trouble with each other, to sharing secret handshakes and inside jokes, we’ve seen and done it all with our siblings. They’re the people we hang out with the most during our downtime at home, and the people we miss the most when we’re away. Our brothers and sisters are probably the only people who we can really bond with over the inevitable quirkiness in all of our parents. We can look or act as silly as we want to around them, because we know for a fact they don’t care. We can always count on them to make us laugh and cry, especially at the same time. Our brothers and sisters are the only people who can make fun of us over and over and it be okay. Although they’re the people we will fight with over any little thing, they’re also the people we would fight for if they ever needed it. Let's face it - they’re the people we would do ANYTHING for, because at the end of the day, we don't know what we'd do without them.
There are probably a million more things I could say about how special the relationships we have with our siblings are, but it all comes down to this: they’ve seen us at our best and worst, and love us just the same. So next time your little bro or big sis gets on your nerves, just smile, and know how absolutely lucky you are to have them. Have a wonderful week! God bless.
Love,
Vanessa
