These days, via phone lines, cyberspace, and occasional airports, we are connected. We share every aspect of each other’s lives and the Grand Canyon sized chasm that once separated our lives is merely a crack in the sidewalk now. As each other’s maid of honor (she at my wedding six and a half almost seven) years ago and me at her wedding in June 2006) we toasted our brothers in law, charging them with our care, and letting them know they are the luckiest men on earth because they get to be with us every day. My little sister, Kelly … the sibling I always wanted, never knew I needed, and absolutely will never be able to live without.

Beautiful story - I want sisters! (But I do love my brothers!)
Christie, This was absolutely beautiful. I am so glad Kelly shared it with me. I loved your article because it shows how our perspective can truly change our attitude about people and life, in general. Thank you for your willingness to share some really intimate feelings. God bless you for having the courage to share your God-given talents.
I too am in tears (probably more so because the article is about me). My sister never ceases to amaze me with her unconditional love for me. The time and effort she puts into loving me is something I will never be able to repay her for. I've said it a thousand times and I'll say it again. God has truly blessed me with having Christie as a sister.
I'm in tears! Marvelous!
