There was a time when my sister and I were sharing our bedroom.
Mum organised it so that we each could claim only our own half of the room...
Any trespasses needed to be taken, after some sort of pleading and cajoling smiles, into agreeable consent from the other. These needed to be secured, assurances were made that in fact our infringements were truly friendly and well intended!
Our affection being extended to the other, and in peace we came to share our toys and games...books & papers... our dresses & skirts...
And then came the time we needed to respect the privacy of each...
Total support was given with little more...
as we knew our lives gradually were taking their separate paths... Our future was to be different and life needed to take its course...
We both cherish our childhood memories & the lovely parents we will always miss...
Still enjoying the joys of each other's company whenever we get together!
We still share few things...
The heartwarming love of our kids and beautiful daughters & nieces... Lovely sisters in turn!
And the journey continues...for now:)
