Sisters

"God help the mister who comes between me and my sister..." is a favorite movie quote around here. I know there will be a time when the rest of that quote will ring more true for them, but today I'm holding on to their great sisterly affection.
I am finding that there are a lot of benefits to girls having younger siblings. One benefit that showed up recently is that little sisters help reveal the true character of gentlemen callers. The girls are immediately irritated with any guy who doesn't adore their little sisters. I'd say that's an indicator of good character.

Hey Lori, it's Dawn. I completely agree with your assessment. Younger siblings are a great test case for character issues that can be otherwise hidden.

I love this too! I went to lunch with my sister today. The girls were a bit jealous. Then I reminded them that they would one day be grown up and hopefully having the blessing of sisters and lunches together! I appreciate your example as a mother of many girls and their example as godly young women. In Him, Eva
