Oh March 11th. It would have been great to have another sister because the void my sister left in the lives of us siblings is felt by each of us everyday. I think we were all close to her in our own way. Having two older brothers, whom I love dearly, is just not the same.

Yes Denise, that is a void that would be very difficult. I love my brothers too, but sisters are different.

March 21~~"An ounce of blood is worth more than a pound of friendship." Spanish proverb

March 22~~"By now we know and anticipate one another so easily, so deeply, we unthinkingly finish each other's sentences, and often speak in code. No one else knows what I mean so exquisitely, painfully well; no one else knows so exactly what to say, to fix me up." Joan Frank

March 24~~"The pull between sisters is the realization of similarity versus the need for difference." Elizabeth Fishel
