Sister/Roomie

Thinking fondly of my roommate sister tonight. Living together has been fun and full of good times, laughter and girl adventures. So glad she came to stay at our house. It is also real life.


It is not one long slumber party. We have rubbed each other the wrong way, had arguments that made both of us cry, fumbled with common standards and practices that would be agreeable to both of us and danced around awkwardly trying to both have romantic relationships in the same space. I have to say that although it has been tricky, it has been one of the good choices in my life. When you get the chance, live with those you came from and do it with a stethoscope on your own soul. If you can learn from it and stay soft under the experience it will be the best kind of school and a way to know yourself and your family better.

Thanks for all you put up with and bring to the party, Lockbox! xoxo
