My Sisters Made Me...

In my extended blog circle, there are two blogs started because their "sister made me do it," Rachel Made Me Do This and My Sistor Made Me Do This.

Here is what my sisters have made me do...
My sister made me cut my beautiful long red hair, so she wouldn't be the only one with a new hairdo. I will always remember being a 12 year old "boy" due to my prepubescent body.

My sister made me go to picture day (the very next year) with frizzy hair because she passed out while she was doing my hair.

My sister made me go on a diet with her when I was 16. I had to sit back and watch my self-esteem drop as I lost nothing, and she dropped to a size 2.

My sister made me come with her to talk to my ex-boyfriend, who flew to AZ to break my heart, when she came to Ripon to visit me. She states she wanted to say hi to him because he was so nice and funny.

My sister made me watch and dress ten 2 year olds as they cried waiting to go on stage to dance.

My sister made me go to an all-night scrap-booking party with her and my newborn for 5 hours. I was too embarrassed to breastfeed in public, so my baby screamed and I got extremely engorged.

My sisters made me love my life.

  7. OK, I am convinced that my older sister did not live in the same world as me.

    She did not remember my boy-cut hair.

    She did not remember that her other sister lost like 40lbs of baby fat.

    I need back-up!
