Big Sis with Little Sis


This is my little sister Sohpia! She LOVES to dress-up and look pretty. She also loves to take pictures. I took this picture when we had some down time, and I could tell that she needed some big sis love!



I am Sophia's "buddy" and in being her buddy, there are several responsibilities! Celeste is Chloe's buddy and Celeste does a lot of the same things for Chloe as I do for Sophia. Some of the duties include getting them dressed (day clothes, pj's, etc..), doing their hair, helping them with their school work, helping them with their chores, and just being there for them when they need us the most! Now, I don't only do these things for Sophia, but for all of my siblings as well! My prayer is that I will always be a godly example for ALL of my siblings and to assist my parents in teaching them to be godly examples to their younger siblings! I love them so much, and I want the best for them. It is my desire to see them grow up knowing how to be godly young women and men, and how to be there for one another. I am not perfect and am always learning myself, but I know that God will show my younger siblings, through the diligence of my parents, and the assistance of Celeste and me, how to follow God in everything they do! And in doing so they will be the best big sisters/brothers to their younger sisters/brothers than I could ever imagine! Sophia, I am so honored to be your big sister and to be able to play a major role in your life!


To God be the Glory!!

WHAT A TREASURE YOU ARE!!!! I sometimes forget how grown-up you are because I see my sweet little Chey still playing in the pantry and watching Pete's Dragon or Barney in New York for the ump-teenth time :) I couldn't be prouder of you, and all your brothers and sisters. How blessed I am to be your Gramie! You are so precious.
