A Kid Again

[raefinlay]

I'm sooo not ready for Hannah to grow up (see icon).

The top of my baby sister's head reaches my breasts now, but she is too far from me in years to be so tall. I wish there was an anti-growth pill, or perhaps a vise for her skinny body. What if I couldn't bend down to kiss the part of her blond hair? What if, when I stalked her with the Tickle Hands of Doom, she stood to look me in the eye and say, Bring it on, Rae! What if her wide eyes stopped delighting in all the amazingly stupid things, the things I can't see without her?

*mourns*

Not always, and Hannah's a special girl. I bet she'll skip the Teenage Years of Doom and go straight to Amazingly Interesting Conversations of Doom. :)

I think you may be right. Remember, this is the girl who told me a restaurant lobby looked like "a Star Wars space station with all the strange people."

Lordy, but I love my sister.

My teens aren't so bad and we have remarkable convos. They make me think sometimes.
