Little Girls Have to Grow Up

To day is my little sisters birthday. Well , she’s really not little any more. She nineteen today. And since there is only a year and a half between her and I quite literally don’t know what life is like with out her. We have had some great times. When we were little kids we are ALL about glitter! I ‘m telling you I went crazy with that stuff. You would put it in our hair, we had glittery eye shadow, glitter lip gloss that was of corse pink, we had glitter stick on earrings, and of course our all time favorite that roll on glitter this would insure that our entire face had an even coat of wet, sticky, ultra glittery film. Then we would take the roll on glitter to our cloths. Especially our jeans and mom didn’t like that too much. We shared a room up until I was 9 and it seemed like every night she would ask me if she could sleep with me. I didn’t want to tell her no because we always had so much fun before we fell asleep but almost every time I said yes I would wake up in the night with her head in my rib cage. So most of the time I would say no but I got tired of telling her no so I would pretend I was sleeping and she would try to tickle me or make me laugh in some way so she could “wake me up” and convince me to let her get in my bed. we did a lot of things together like gymnastics, cheer leading, volleyball, and track we shared a lot of our cloths and we had most of the same friends. Some times I felt like I couldn’t ever get away from her and she annoyed the crap out of me. She has this saying that she would claim that I would say to her which I really didn’t it was jus basically the underlying tone of what i was thinking, “get a life and get outa mine!” and some times I really was thinking, “uh can I please have my own life?” but I am so glad that I have her. She always brings me outa my slumps and knows how to crack me up and keep me awake at all ours of the night even though I have to go to work in the morning. But you know what its worth it, because we are making memories that we are going to cherish when were 40 and 41. Barbie’s, oh man did we love bardies!! It wasn’t so much of the playing house and stuff its was the important things like figuring out who was gunna be the richest, and picking out outfits, and making sure there hair was all pretty. Oh and of course we had to pick names too! Emily’s was always Shelly every single time, where as my girl never had the same name twice. There was never a dull moment and we still have tons and tons of fun. We go on all kinds of adventures and explore anchorage. She’s my best friend and I can tell her anything. She is a total crack up and some time knows me better than I know my self. I’m so glad that I have a little sister to share life with only thing is that she’s not so little any more
