Today was a much more pleasant day! The
sun came out to play and there wasn't a cloud in sight. I live for these days.
This morning I sat outside and did some
reading. Then, my mother and I went to fetch my sisters from uni and school.
On the way back we stopped by my
mother's cousin and her husband. It was nice to sit there and listen to all
their stories about when they were younger, and all the trouble they used to
get up to. My mother and all her extended family were really close. They all
grew up together and lived in the same neighbourhood. Aunties, cousins, uncles,
nieces, in-laws etc. I almost wish that we could have grown up in that kind of
environment. As it is right now I don’t see any of my cousins or either of my parents’
family really. They have somewhat grown apart. Lots of history there. So I
guess all I can hope for is that my sisters and I have that sort of
relationship when we start our own families. I would like to think of their
children as my own and vice versa.
Once we got home I went out for my first
jog/walk here at home with my sister. We didn’t quite make it on to the beach
but we survived the whole course once. Hopefully soon we’ll be able to jog the
whole way. But baby steps for now J
Now I’m off to watch a movie with my
little sister – a rare opportunity! I love these little sisterly bonding
moments ♥
