I did a Post earlier this month dedicated to Siblings, to ALL three of my kids together….
Today I want to Focus on Big Sister, my Oldest…
*She leads, He Follows*
*She helps Him learn new things*
*She helps keep Him safe*
*He Cheers for her at Softball Games, she shares her free drink*
*They Caught a Caterpillar and Named it “Fuzzy”*
*She is His Miracle League Buddy, His Big Sister, His Friend*
I Know there are days when He drives her Crazy, I know there are days when they fight like cats and dogs, but I Hope and Pray that I am doing a good enough job of ensuring she maintain her individuality, and not letting her get lost in the overwhelming storm that Autism can sometimes be. I Fear that no matter how much I try to do, it will not be enough, that I have somehow let her down.I Pray that she will not resent her brother, but continue to love Him as they grow older. She is a HUGE Blessing and help to me, and words will never be enough to express how much I love her, How Proud I am of the young woman she is growing into.
Having an older sibling is wonderful and she obviously is a good big sister. You are doing a great job Mom.
