They say you can choose your friends, but you can't choose your family. Well.......I've decided, I'd choose mine!! Even with all of our craziness! I swear, I have the coolest sisters EVER!! And you should meet my sister-in-law too. I mean, I got real lucky with that one! In all honesty though, there is nothing like a sister. Mine are my best friends. I know I can go to them with anything...all the good, the bad, the ugly, and all the in-between.
I think having my baby has really enhanced our relationships even more. I know it has for me. I have always said that the next best thing to having a baby yourself is to have a niece/nephew. There is nothing like it. I love my brother and sister's kids as if they were my own and I LOVE that I know that is how they feel about my baby.
To my sisters {and that includes you, Tara!}, thank you for always being there for me. For listening to me when I needed someone to cry to, bitch to, put me in my place, be on my side, laugh with, and get advice from. You are the most beautiful, inspirational women I have ever known and I thank you for always sticking by me and loving me unconditionally. And most importantly, for loving my child as if he were your own!!! For all this, I am forever grateful!

That was awesome and made me feel so good! I think the same of you...don't know what I'd do without you!
