to my sister
today is Stephanie's anniversary - 4 years ago today, my big sister died in a tornado, refusing to take shelter because she wouldn't leave her horses. she is a hero to me most days; other days, i curse the heavens that she didn't have more self-preservation instincts.
today i wear her jewelry - a necklace and ring that is perfectly her. i toast her with a cocktail. i think through every moment of that day. i think of how she will always be young, and that i'm older than she will ever be.
and i hope with all of my heart that she's watching over me.

I am so very sorry for your terrible loss... She sounds like quite a woman.
I am absolutely certain that she is with you.. I honestly am. I wish I could explain...but I would be here all day. .. but I am certain.
I wonder if you realize that you too are strong and loving and special. I found that in you the first time that I read your blog. You love your pup with your whole heart, and live long in a big way,from what you share..
When you join your sister, a very long time from now... it will be okay.. you will be any age you want to be.. so feel free to wrinkle in life, cause it will be okay in spirit..
hugs
k
