Day 13 2013 - I love my sister!

Hello!

I don't really want to go into too much depth with this post, but today really made me appreciate my family members especially my sister.

My life isn't like everyone else's, I don't have the perfect family and live with my mum and dad. I don't even live with one of them, or any of my family members. My sister and I live with foster carers. We've been lucky enough to be kept together, and even more so to the fact that we've been with the same carers for 8 years.

I won't go into the reasons why we're in foster care. But the fact my sister has autism (I did mention this in a previous post!), sometimes questions arise of what would happen if things were different, but if I'm completely honest, I love my sister to bits and couldn't imagine my life without her! I well up with tears even thinking about it. She's such an inspiration in her own right. She's so creative and artistic, and has such a great humor that sometimes I wish I had some of her qualities.

Yes siblings fight, but that is completely normal! Sometimes you need to chill for a moment and appreciate the fact you have that person in your life. Make as many memories with them and take the arguments or sibling rivalry with a pinch of salt, and make things better again.

If you're reading this and have siblings, I hope this post makes you appreciate the people in your life!

Don't leave it too late to make things better
