Sister #1 Destry
My only OLDER sister by 18 months. She is the perfect person to be an older sister. She, having gone through everything before myself has always been concerned about making sure I was/am prepared, well informed, and not nervous at all about anything. She was a life saver when I started junior high, started playing school sports, went on to high school, dated a boy, went to college, got married, got pregnant and now I'm texting her almost everyday with questions that start with... Is this normal......? How do I do this better............? or I'M GOING INSANE WHAT DO YOU DO IN THIS SITUATION..........?
I will admit most of my childhood I was so jealous of her. Well, look at her, you would be too :) Destry has always been beautiful, smart and successful. It's so fun to have her as my sister and I pray that one day we will live close so our kids can grow up together! (Did you get that Riley??? Move closer!!!)
Sister #2
Devon
Being 3 years younger than me we didn't have much in common BUT she is always a perfect person to go to when you need some good clear sound advice. She is able to sort through all my girly, hormonal problems in high school and calmy say to me, "D'laney, you are being stupid!" Sometimes a girl just needs to be told that and she has said it to me countless times :) Devon is my beautiful, humble, creative sister that came up with so many hours of entertainment for us, making movies, creating plays, art projects and so on. We got especially close a couple years ago when we lived together for 8 months. She may have been messy and ate all my food but she was the best roommate ever! I love reading her emails now as she serves a mission in Houston, Texas and can't wait to see her and compare our mission stories in just 3 1/2 months!!!
#3 Davis
5 years younger than me she was always in the "little kid" group in the family but now I can call her a true friend! Growing up we constantly made fun of her for being a "blonde" and even though she can still have some blonde moments she blows my mind when she tells me about the things she is learning in college. Davi is smart, humble and kind. She forgave me when I dyed her hair orange! Talk about a saint! She is also the BEST with kids! She is going to be an all star mom and then I will have to add that on the list of things I want to be more like her at. I remember I had this picture of her on my mission and some elders saw it and wanted her to write them ASAP! Gosh I have beautiful sisters!!
#4 Dalyn
The Ginger of the family! 7 Years younger than me and I would kill for her body! Seriously, it's not good for my self-esteem to be around her when I'm preggo! haha, I laugh to keep from crying! This girl is the NICEST of them all. I can't think of a single time she has ever been upset! She is always down to do pretty much anything and by the way she rocks at everything she does! If we had "Class Bests" in our family she would win ALOT of them but the first one on my mind is BEST HAIR (actually the first is best wardrobe but I'm too jealous to talk about that) ! If I had her hair I would rub it in everyone's face (not literally that would be weird) But not this girl she has chopped it off and donated it TWICE!!! Talk bout having a self-less heart!
#5 Dakota
We save the best for last! I was 14 when she was born and as soon as my mom brought her home I took her away! She was my little buddy when I was in high school. I loved dressing her up, doing her hair and taking her out on girl dates! After going to college and on my mission I came home to a totally different Koda! Now she is a sassy, smart, beautiful clever girl that surprises me every time I talk to her. She knows more about the world than I did at 18 and can hold an adult conversation but than turn around and go watch Disney channel! I love her to pieces and have come to the realization and am now okay with the fact that she my parent's favorite and will always be the favorite aunt!! She deserves it she awesome with all the grand kids!
Gosh I'm one lucky girl to have these ladies as my sisters!!
