The Sister Picture

I love this picture of you and your sister. At times, I have had my doubts about how connected you two would be, about how you would be treated, if they would favor Amelia, being the natural one. But this is too cute. I can see how obviously close you two must be. You have your arms up on your ears in the exact same fashion. The closeness you guys are sitting to eachother. It just tells me everything about your relationship as sisters. I love it. I thank your mom all the time for sending me pictures like this one. Pictures that ease my fears of anything that may be wrong. They provide such reassurance that you are ok. And Jerusha, don't that a day ever goes by that you're not on my mind. No matter where you are, no matter where life finds you, I will always love you. I always want you to remember that. I may not be your mom, I may not have been there all those years, but I did the best I could to place you in the arms of someone that could provide for you what I couldn't. What is my role in your life? For now, I'm a piece of your past. I also hope every day that I can be a piece of your future. What my place will be then, only time can tell. Just remember, when you went home with the people you call Mom and Dad, you took a piece of my heart with you.
