Youth Gifts For Little Brothers And Sisters My Sister Loves Me T-Shirt

Product Information

Mom had steadfastly cared for my dad, my brother, and me since her early twenties. She rarely complained, but I thought I detected the toll this sacrifice took in the way she seemed happiest not with us, but at church or petting the dog or watching PBS. I tried to make things easier by hiding my troubles from her and sometimes even myself, but this time I was too weak to pretend. Until then, they will keep sharing their Saturday nights and balancing the challenging dynamics of a relationship under-cover. It's well worth it to them. The latest twist in this is that my sister-in-law and her husband are moving here and will live about 10 miles away. My wife knows how I feel, but she is excited and plans to spend a lot of time with her sister. This continues to bother me, and I have much less enthusiasm and interest in my marriage. Don’t talk about my sister; don’t play with me about my sister. If you do, you’ll see another side of me.”—Beyoncé

When I complained to my wife, she did not seem surprised and made some feeble excuses, ending in “Well … that’s my sister.” She has refused to confront her sister about this or even ask for an explanation. She is worried that this would change her relationship with her sister. She now says that her sister “didn’t mean anything” by what she did, and seems to be trying to blame me for being offended. I told myself and others that I was so immersed in Teri’s care because no one else could understand Teri’s medical issues and advocate for her. Mom was a nurse, meanwhile, and had my dad, a radiologist, my brother, also a radiologist, and my aunt, a nurse, for support. But the truth was that I wanted to help and be with Teri more, and she wanted me with her, so I was. Whenever I thought about this, I felt equal parts warrior and betrayer. I’m the big sister. I want to make sure she has everything, even if I don’t have anything. It’s hard. I love her too much. That’s what counts.”—Venus Williams

If your sister is in a tearing hurry to go out and cannot catch your eye, she’s wearing your best sweater.”―Pam Brown I asked my dad to send me, and by sixteen I was in college. I just graduated with a Transfer AA and I go to an online college next semester. I work online too. Doing research papers for college assholes who can’t read a book, apparently. So, I when I can, I take the same classes. Slam dunk. That's the best thing about little sisters: They spend so much time wishing they were elder sisters that in the end they're far wiser than the elder ones could ever be.”—Gemma Burgess

If I was to give you three words to describe my big sister: encourager, supporter, and amazing!”—Ann ButlerI’ve always admired my little sister because she’s able to play with no fear. She’s a cutthroat player when it comes to taking risks.”—Ashley Prange A couple of years ago I married a wonderful woman after living with her for a few years. I am a man in my 70s, and my wife is a few years older than me. She has an older sister who is on her third marriage and has a reputation in my wife’s family for being flirtatious and extremely manipulative. She has been living far away from us and visits three or four times a year. There can be no situation in life in which the conversation of my dear sister will not administer some comfort to me.”—Mary Wortley Montagu Your sister is a jewel, a priceless, one—of—a—kind gem who makes living precious for many people, including you.”—Dave Pipitone
