my sisters


This is me and three of my favorite people in the world.
Candice, Holly, me, and Wendy
This is on our vacation this summer to Branson. We found these pictures at Aeropostale and bought them to surprise my Dad. This is one of the only times you will ever see me wear pink. But... I did it for my sisters.
Candice is 23 and married to Michael Dohman. She is the outgoing, fun, loud one of the bunch. She always wants to know what's going on in her little sisters' lives. She is steadfast in what she believes and refuses to back down, but will break it to us gently and lovingly when she knows we're wrong.
Holly is 20 and married to Will Kellenberger. I can always count on Holly to laugh with; we feed off of eachother's stupid comments. She is also the protector of the four of us. She'll defend us to the death and always stick up for her family.
Wendy is 15. She's somebody I could just hang out with and talk to all night or not say anything at all. She instantly makes people feel at ease and want to have a good time. Her carefree, fun-loving spirit attracts others to her.
I'm never bored when I'm with my sisters. I always come away having laughed or cried and sometimes both, and feeling good. Each one of them means so much to me and I don't know where I'd be without their support, their love, and all the memories we've made together. They, including my parents and brothers-in-law, are the people I probably pray for the hardest and most often for. And I know they do the same for me.
Family is the group of people who know your past, all your mistakes and short-comings. They know your imperfections and your weaknesses. Yet, they still love you regardless. They love each weed in your garden. These are my sisters.

Four girls? Wow! I have three brothers so that makes us a little the same. Are you the third too? I think the third in line gets the shaft. #1 gets to do all the "grown-up" stuff. #2 gets to tag along. And #4 gets babied. So little #3 sits all alone with no love. And he stays home like Cinderella. Washing floors.

Hey Stoller. I love how tight you and your sisters are. I'm kinda jealous of that, I don't really feel it with my siblings. Last night Luke called me to say he had an extra ticket to the Illini home game, and he asked if I wanted to go. I turned him down...I don't really know why.

Kristi- Thanks for the update. I've been meaning to do that.

Joel- Yes! Third children do get the shaft. We kinda get lost. No cool name or anything for us. We're not the oldest, we're not the youngest. We're lost somewhere in the middle. *sigh* I'll wash floors with you the next time I'm out in Colorado.

Wuthrich- Believe me, it's not easy. I really have to make the effort sometimes to be with them. It's always worth it though. Luke obviously wants to hang out. Give him a call.

Ok, am I color blind (actually, yest) or are those shirts white? I see no pink! Great post, Nat. You're really blessed to have such great relationships with your sibs, and to have them in close proximity.
