All grown up

Today is my little sister's birthday, the big 1 - 8. This morning when someone asked me how old she turned I immediately said 18 but then had to stop and think, is she really 18, I just couldn't believe it. My baby sister is all grown up!

Growing up we had our moments of closeness but a lot of the sibling fighting that went along with it. Now a days we're the best of friends with our little inside jokes and weird faces (I dont think we know how to smile at each other). We're also movie quoters, if she texts me a quote I have to text back another line from that same movie or impending doom will rain down upon us(okay I really dont know if that will happen because we've never stumped each other).

"oh good, my dog found the chainsaw!" Lilo and Stitch was the movie we watched when my parents went to their new years eve party.
"oooo I love it!" Dickie Roberts is our go to movie when we need a good laugh.
"I fly?" "No you fall" Land Before Time will always be OUR movie.
And she'll always be a Tim Burton lover with me!

My sister is witty, smart and beautiful and I know we'll just grow closer as we get older. I remember telling her once that when we're old and gray we're going to have sister ice cream time, she just told me I was crazy but I was dead serious!

Thanks lil sis for letting me boss you around all these years, I'm sure glad mom didn't take you back the hospital when I told her too!
