10 things you only know when you have a sister
1. No matter what, she must be the first to know, It used to be the grade of the math exam, the first kiss, the first butt. Today it's the knee surgery, the busy children or the argument with the husband. If there is something, we will choose her number first.
2. "But not mom and dad say", This sentence is still valid if we are 56 and 59. There are things the parents do not need to know, because they would only worry about that. Point.
3. She honestly tells us the worst truths in the face, That's why we may be briefly offended, but then realize that she's right. At least, most of the time. We definitely think about it in detail.
4. We share everything with her. Really everything. Except for the toothbrush, maybe. And the men, of course.
5. Together we are not embarrassed, Laugh so loud that everyone is watching. Like two lunatics jumping on the dance floor next to the clock, with bad breakdance deposits and no shame. Make yourself really Horst. Most fun with her. Have we practiced together all our lives.
6. It remains forever the small and the big, She still buys T-shirts in XS for you, because you'll be forever seven for her? Of course, after all, you're the younger one. And you think she's taller and more mature and beautiful just because she's 18 months older. That was the same in the old days. We never get out of the roles. Even if both are grandmothers.
7. Together we are doubly happy, sad? and unbalanced, Two women. Two unfiltered emotions. Any questions?
8. Your enemies are yours too. It does not matter if the teenage boyfriend broke up without warning or the mother from the Kita seriously asked if you may have increased: You're proxy, when it comes to your sister. Your blood is also her blood. If one is mean to her, he is the same to you. That was already the case in the schoolyard.
9. You can always call or come over! It's 5 o'clock in the morning and you're in the hospital with one of the kids? Your husband and you had such a quarrel that you have to call them at 11.30pm even though they have morning shift tomorrow? This works out. Always and at any time. If necessary, even without reason. She is your sister after all.
10. She makes the very best gifts ever, The woman has known us since birth, so she knows exactly what we want. Better than any man ever could.
