Sisters................

My baby sister Kelly, you gotta love her shes loud, outrageous, shameless, compassionate, giving caring and a huge part of me.
(Her laugh is a shocker though WHOW NeLLY you should hear her, much worse than mine)
We didn't meet until she was 16 and I was 21 when I found my birth mum but she and I clicked right from the beginning with a closeness that has gotten deeper through the years.
I had the pleasure of having all 4 of my nieces and her hubby CJ on Sunday night.
I was responsible for getting those two together and so sometimes I'm thanked and well other times their not so grateful. Giggle.
I miss her so much, her and I are very much a like and tend have the same thoughts when family shits going on so we stick together. LOL .
I am her big sister and she loves me just as I love her.

A you can see she is so way braver than I am my little sis has just shaved her head for the Leukemia Foundation, she wears her hair short anyway but this was still extreme.
I love that she did it it makes me feel like more of a sook.
She is my hero, I love her bravery and she also raised some money for a good cause.
The fact that I have had cancer twice and I am a survivor and as you know have struggled with loosing my hair makes her sacrifice all the sweeter.

Its funny looking at a photo like this though, as we both have a similar shaped face but with all the weight I have put on we look very different now. It was lovely to have them all here the house was alive with laughter and squeals with all the girls running hiding and enjoying each others company.
I miss the laughter of a full house and it really does make me miss my older 2 babes all the more. I have had a shitty week with my health I am just so tired but I cant sleep my body aches like I have a truck parked on me and my head thumps like a jack hammer.
I am however off to the specialist tomorrow so we'll check my bloods and maybe adjust my meds so that I can feel a little better.

I am so grateful for a wonderful weekend. The girls had a great time playing with their cousins and the boys well they were a little bit funny by the time they came to bed. (if you know what I mean) I just wanted to touch base before I try to sleep some more it seems thats all I ever do these days but they say thats good. (keeps me out of trouble so I can't complain, smile)

Well I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and your week is full of good health and joy.

Blessings and Laughter is my Prayer for you all xx

You know what I love the most about you.....that even when you are feeling like crap and you have every reason to complain, you always find the blessings in life.

You are a truly remarkable and inspirational woman Shaz, no wonder your sister loves you so much.
