When you have a ‘little sister’ who supports you, she makes it easy to want to be around her. When you have a little sister who makes you feel special in being her older brother, it’s easy to have good feelings. When you have a little sister who makes you feel proud of yourself and treats you like you are essential in her life, it’s easy when you see her to want to hug her. It’s easy when memories of your little sister come to mind, and they are always filled with joy and laughter, that you smile. It’s easy to love a little sister who, after sixty years of hearing you tell the same jokes and stories, still laughs with you. It’s easy to love a little sister when you write something like this, and tears come to your eyes with gratitude! It’s easy to love a little sister when you still say to her, “I can’t wait till tomorrow…” and she goes along with it and says, “Why?”, and you repeat for the thousandth time, “Because I get better looking every day!”

It’s easy to love a little sister when you have one like mine! Happy Birthday, “little sister!”
