The Top 10 uses of a sister

The stepping stool

 Inspired by my big sister on her  30^th birthday-

1.       The Stepping stool when you’re too short to reach the sink.

2.       The loyal defender, even when she knows you’re wrong.

3.       The culprit when you don’t want to do something wrong alone.

4.       The ever forgiving brunt-of-a-joke that only you think is funny.

5.       The walloped victim when your day just didn’t go your way.

6.       The one that is laughed at, scream at and cried to in the midst of emotional eccentricities. 

7.       The one that shares your childhood memories, childhood fears and those secrets that were so important to keep.

8.       The one that forgives your adulthood shortcomings just because you are you.

9.       The one that understands your physical insecurities because- more often than not- it’s a family trait.   

10.   The best friend that you can’t outgrow.
