laddie and i, five years agoMy little sister is one of the most beautiful people I know.
Ever since she was little, she's had a knack for entertaining others. She used to get dressed up and dance around the living room in the house we would visit every summer. All of our aunts and uncles, great aunts and uncles, and cousins would gather around and watch. At the end of her performance she would waltz around the room with a hat outstretched, hoping people would tip her for her fine performance.
She was born with blond eyebrows and my aunt would always get a kick out of drawing them on with eyeliner. Before her performances, she was very particular about the fact that she needed her eyebrows before she could go on.
Whenever my sister, brother, or I, who are all older than her, would tell her to do something, she would undoubtedly say, "You are not the boss of me! I am a freeeeee woman!" Emphasis on the free, of course.
She has always been giving. When she was going into the first grade, we moved states and bought a new house. My parents were planning on giving her the bedroom with the walk in closet, and I was so upset about this! I somehow talked/tricked her into switching with me. She never seemed put out by any of our requests.
To this day, every time I get scared during then night, I go crawl in bed with her. She probably hates having to share her tiny twin bed with me, but I never want to stop cuddling with her. Shes gotten me through some of the roughest nightmares and thunder storms.
She is one of my favorite people in the world.
