"I'm going to miss you, sister!" the five words coming from the other side of the room, spoken in heartfelt sincerity, made my stomach hurt. "Me too!" I answered.
Only a few hours later, I was in the same spot as I was last year.
I had tried to avoid thinking too much about my lonely summer, but most everybody, including myself at times, didn't help much. Every few days Emily would do the math and come up with however many days were left, until YFJ.
Now as I'm sitting here missing my sisters, I think again of a friends words when he saw this hanging the kitchen wall:
"No wonder you were so lonely!"
'A sister is worth a thousand friends.'
