big belly

love it.

sister.

i cannot say how many times in my life people have asked me if i like being a twin. and even though i don't exactly know what it's like not to be a twin, my answer to that question is unequivocally that being a twin is the best thing ever. having a twin sister is one of the greatest blessings in my life. we have gone through so much together and i really don't know what i would do without her. but i guess i am about to find out (temporarily anyway), because she just left on a mission to buenos aires, argentina. my little brother just got back from his mission from the dominican republic a couple of months ago so i thought i was done with this whole missionary thing! but now the countdown has once again begun. it's almost too much for a new hormonal mother to take i'm telling you. she will be such a great missionary and i am so excited for her and for the people of argentina. but i am also going to miss her.....a LOT. love you ams!!
