Older sisters are lible to nag. To refuse to lend you things. To scold. To make you walk too fast.
But on the other hand, they take on bully boys at school and send them running for their lives. they disentangle problems in arithmetic and knitting.
And when they're grown they listen to your secrets and anxieties. And never tell without your say-so.
An older sister is a friend, and a defender, a listener, conspirator, a counsellor and a sharer of delights. And sorrows too.

Thank you LuAnne for letting me be your big sister.
