She is my best friend and my other half, and I would do anything for her. We have been together from the minute we were conceived until this very day. I remember we would wear the same clothes, but they would have opposite colors. My mother loved these specific outfits where I would wear a purple top with green shorts and my sister would wear a green top with purple bottoms. We were these two adorable little blonde haired girls but we would always be running around like heathens. We would run and play out in the woods with each other and make up stories and our own little worlds and narrate them together. Sometimes we would bring a friend along too. We were sweet kids, very family orientated but we were also a little mischievous. I once convinced my sister that we should play hairdresser up in our tree houses. Meanwhile I had planned this whole scheme of actually cutting her hair off and I had stolen my moms large orange handled scissors. I lured her up into the tree house, pretended to play with her hair a little bit, then hacked off the majority of her pony tail. My mother was not too pleased when she discovered Jade's hair on the floor that she initially thought was dog hair but I do not quite remember getting punished. This, unfortunately was the beginning of Jade's short hair days.
Despite my one-sided mischief, we did everything together from sports, to riding bikes, to playing dolls; we were each others other half. It was awesome to always have someone to play with, talk to and be there for me whenever I needed someone. The memorable moments we made as children, all the fun and goofy times we had together are the ones I remember most. She was right by my side from the day we were born, because of this my fondest moments and experiences with her are also my earliest memories.
Must be weird for you to be separated.
ReplyDeleteI like the hair-hack story and the opposite color outfits image.
