sisters

mommy's belly is growing

oh how your life is going to change

the bedroom isn't your own

your shadow isn't caused by the sun

that dollhouse grandpa built for you, it's now hers too

your clothes will never be where you thought you left them

all those dolls you put away because you're too old, she unpacks and plays with now

that fight over darrell, it may be your first but it won't be your last

high school brings its own kind of frustrations, but you're not new to this, you have a sister

you can handle anything because you've fought over things non stop for years

when you finally move out, you will miss her, though not as much as when you move out of state

finally, you're married

then so is she

you're raising kids at the same time

you're dealing with crap caused by husbands and family

you know you can be yourself and not worry about judgement

a love like few others in life grows and develops and brings such joy

few opinions matter more than hers

you watch her girls

they don't know what troubles are in store

they don't know that blessings lay ahead

oh life is grand
