A Mother, a Sister, a Friend

Having a sister is like having a best friend you can't get rid of. You know whatever you do, they'll still be there. ~Amy Li




A sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost. ~Marion C. Garretty















I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life. ~Abraham Lincoln



The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness. ~Honoré de Balzac








Yesterday brought the beginning, tomorrow brings the end, and somewhere in the middle we became the best of friends. ~Author Unknown








A true friend is one who thinks you are a good egg even if you are half-cracked. ~Author Unknown

Thank you to all my mothers, sisters, and friends. I am abundantly blessed.

The people in your life are ridiculously good-looking! But WAY more importantly, they seem to love and support you, as you love and support them. So beautiful- congratulations on all of your blessings.

I loved your quotes. I hadn't heard most of them. Thanks for bringing to my attention the great love I too have for my mothers, sisters, and friends. I so often don't stop to really think about all the blessings they've brought into my life, so it's nice to have this moment to remember them as the incredible people that they are. Thanks Brie.

Yay for sisters! My mom and my sisters are having a girl's weekend this next weekend. I am so excited. I feel so sorry for anyone who doesn't have sisters. Glad you had a good time!
