Almost every night at my house my mom or dad reads a few stories out of the Bible to me, and sometimes my little sister Alex. Tonight, Mom was getting Jules ready for bed, so Daddy sat on Alex’s bed and read to us. I scooted up real close to him, and he put his arm around me as he read. Then Alex laid down on my lap and I stroked her hair for a few minutes. My favorite part was when she said, “Thank you Liyia,” in her sweet little way. We may fight a lot, but every once in awhile us sisters have a tender moment, and when it happens, it’s hard to let it go. So thank you Alex, for letting me love you.
