Sisters

Chance made them friends........Hearts made them sisters. I know this saying is backwards, but truly this is how it should be said when you speak about the MyMy and the LuLu. They have become great sisters in every sense. I am constantly amazed at how easy the process has been for them. When LuLu first entered our lives I was not sure how the 2 would get along. In fact, I never imagined it to be so simple. They were attached from day one, and, one and a half years later, the senario remains the same.



One of the cute things they have done, all on their own, is mailing letters to each other. Each girl made a mailbox that came to them from an all-girls craft club. Then, weekly, they will mail letters, invitations, coloring pages, homemade puzzles and activities to one another. It is fun watching them sneak around making items to mail, or watching the other open their letter. This was going on for awhile before I even knew it was occurring. I found out about the letters when I spent a long day in the MyMy's room helping her clean and dejunk. I came across the letters and was about to throw them away, when the MyMy immediately came to their rescue pleading to me of why they were important, and so, needed to stay. Since then, I have become more aware of the passing of letters to each other and am so grateful that their relationship continues to blossom and grow.

Watching the 2 interact has made me realize how much they love each other. This is especially neat to see because the LuLu hasn't had many chances to love, or, to let her guard down enough to be loved. The little sister broke through the barrier, and love has won.

Yes, chance did make them friends, but hearts, has made them sisters.
