Dear Krystal:
It says to write to your sibling, and I just feel like I'd have more to write about you than Michael. I love him to death, but we have some stories.
Since we're six years apart, we didn't like each other at all when we were younger. I thought you were the meanest person in the world, and you thought I was an annoying brat. There's no getting around that fact! It was ridiculous how much we fought in those days, and how much we don't now. You've also mellowed out some since you had Clarice and Eli though. Now all I have to worry about is the fact that Clarice hates me when I'm around.
Truth be told, I hated you when I was little. But now, our relationship is different. We don't act as much like sisters as some families, but they don't have the history we do. But nowadays, there's no hostility here. Just teasing. And I like that a lot. I love my sister, but since you don't read this, you'll never know. ;D
My sister apparently does read my Blog, and she sent me this via Facebook. It made me cry, to tell you the truth.

"u only think i don't read your blog. I try 2 keep track of things in your life. it is difficult having such an age difference, but it is getting easier now that you;re becoming an adult. i think about u everyday and wish that we could have a closer relationship. i'm glad you'll b able 2 drive soon, it will make it easier to invite u to do things. i dont always feel like driving all the way 2 mom&dads to pick u up and come back to wichita. i was very cruel to u as a child and i'm not sure why. it was easy i guess, u were a very sensitive little kid. but i do love u very much and if it matters i'm very proud of the woman you have become. (and clarice loves u, she is just going thru an annoying stage. she wants nothing to do with anyone that is not mommy or her 2 grandma's. she wont let anyone near her unless she's getting something out of the deal, a.k.a. food. at least eli is still sweet and innocent ) I have been looking forward to having a sister that i could call a friend someday, i've just had to wait for us to both get a little older. ♥"
