So much so, that I might dig out pictures of my own sister, with whom I did not share childhoods. It would be good, perhaps, to look at her as she once had been. She'd just turned 13 when I was born, so I never knew the little blonde with the curly hair and the sweet face that I saw in her darling babyish photos. Her life went on to take a very sad direction. She died 20 years ago, thankfully making peace with God before passing on. Thank you indeed for sharing your heart.Nancy Shumanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05584199691076992017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-25897276766857520332014-12-14T08:14:06.246-07:002014-12-14T08:14:06.246-07:00Deborah, You've said it so beautifully.

I have family that lives far away and we don't see each other as much as I'd like, so it's nice to remember them when we were all little, as that does make me feel tender and close to them.<br /><br />Brenda @ Its A Beautiful Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02955486477303938670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-85090365393996722762014-12-14T08:12:29.403-07:002014-12-14T08:12:29.403-07:00Christmas really does open the heart for loved one...Christmas really does open the heart for loved ones, doesn't it?

My little bro...I think I know what you mean Brenda. My little brother has lived in Hawaii for 25 years, haven't seen him much. We are living very different lives, and yet all I need to do is remember him as he was as my little brother, and there's a closeness there. And whenever we feel upset, angry, or hurt by people, it does seem to help to remember that they were once children, and all of us have inside of us a child that was once eager and excited, and sometimes broken and hurt. The pictures of you and your sister are sweet, and I can see why they are also very poignant. Blessings to you.
