Every day I look for ways to be inspired, to learn and to grow. And trying to be the best for my kids, my husband and my family. One thing I really wanna do is being there for my kids, be part of my siblings and my parents.
every one of us possesses a gene predisposing us toward rivalry, competition, and fits of envy with any past, present, or future siblings.
There's a truly unbelievable story in the paper today, that a young brother and sister. . . have been turned down for adoption by their own grandparents. . . If that weren't enough, the siblings are now to be adopted by two complete strangers against the wishes of the grandparents. . . And as if that weren't enough, the two strangers are a gay couple, who have been selected ahead of several heterosexual couples.
One of the best things about being an adult is the realization that you can share with your sister and still have plenty for yourself.
Help one another is part of the religion of our sisterhood.
Previous generations understood about death, and undoubtedly would have seen a reasonable amount of death. Once you get into the Victorian era, you might well have seen the funerals of many of your siblings before you were very old.

A sibling is a friend for life, but they are a friend for life that you are forced to have. And like anything that you are forced to do, occasionally people will drive you crazy.
More than Santa Claus, your sister knows when you've been bad and good.

Thus did my siblings and I learn one of the hard lessons of life: the best way to strip the allure and dreaminess from a lifelong dream is, very often, simply to have it come true.
Everyone if so warm, and the children know my from the children's books. Their oldest siblings or young parents know me from "Here Comes the Groom" or "Waterboy. "
That's when it happens. Maybe it was my argument. Maybe it was my scary zeal. Whatever the reason, as soon as Megan whistles, the crowd is on its feet. They're blowing bubbles. They're raising their lighters high. They're cheering through their fangs. . . For Dawn Summers, for themselves and each other, for every sibling who got tossed into a situation beyond her control. For me. And for my sister, who whistles again. . . Once more with feeling.
Relationships with parents, grandparents, friends, and siblings were important to me when I was young and have remained so throughout my life. Our relationships with other people both shape and reflect who we are. These relationships are infinitely fascinating to explore!
All my siblings became artists. One's a novelist, my brother is a painter, my sister was a costume designer.
I'm really lucky to have my brother because I know a lot of teenagers, and even adults, aren't as close to their siblings. Working in Hollywood definitely does bring us together and gives us something to connect on. I had an audition yesterday and he came by before and ran my sides with me. Being able to work on things together is really cool and it gives us something to have in common.
