Sappy Sister

My sister’s birthday is today. Mom’s is on Tuesday. These are both amazing women who support me in a major way. Strength, laughter, and support are just a phone call or IM away and I’m so glad. I’d be living in the streets if it weren’t for family. My brother and I wrote songs dedicated to them over the holidays.

Yes, I’m a sappy sister. Yes, yes, yes. Kisses to California and Utah.

There are so many ways to say I love you.
so many ways to say I care.
With lunches, and bunches of roses on tables,
adventures in learning, the moments we shared.

Mornings unending, garage needs a cleaning,
the weeds need a picking, and my room does too.
A smile as sweet as chocolate in blenders
The wonders of blenders and motherly brews.

I love you. I love you. I do.

Floating like falling
Never if the water holds you up
Falling like floating
Didn’t think I’d have to drink this cup

Still the wind blows
Still the wind blows further
Still the wind blows.

Daughters never falter
Never when the water holds them up
Floating like flying
Winds that only carry me up

Never if the water holds you up
Falling like floating
Didn’t think I’d have to drink this cup
Still the wind blows
Still the wind blows
