Do you remember building houses with our blankets in the dark? And on Christmas Eve or was it Christmas night - we'd sit in our room around those little Christmas candles and just chat. I have many good memories of our time sharing a room together. I'm sure there were rough times. Thankfully those memories have faded; all I can remember is the good! There is hope for K and E!!! I love you! As the sister who shared a room with you for so much of our life, I am proud of you for doing this even though the complaints and tears are hard.

My best friends to this day are the ones I shared a room with. You learn to love and appreciate somebody so much better when you have to share space and be mindful of another person 24/7.

But we survived and were happier for it in the end. She got married that December and I've been grateful we could room together for her last summer home. Someday your daughters will be glad they got to know each other better. At least, we can hope they will be!
