Its my little sister's 11th birthday. Unless you have siblings this statement probably has no meaning to anybody, but shes growing up and its scaring me. I remember when we were just little toddlers, me laying on her bed demanding things and her running back and forth just wanting to be like me. fast forward 7 years. Im just shocked at how things are now, how much everything has changed since then, since my biggest worry was how I was going to con her into getting me more cheese nips. Whats in store for her? I dont want her to be a teenager like me, but I want her to be able to look up to me and be able to have an older sister she can trust and confide in when things get tough. I just want to be there for her. Ive never thought like this before, but its the type of thing where I just want to sheild her from everything Ive endured, I want her to just be her smiling 6 year old self again. Does anybody have any idea how much it hurts when my baby sister tells me she thinks shes fat? When shes embarrassed about growing up and starting her transition into womanhood? oh god its corny. but I worry about her. Shes just so innocent, stay sweet annie, stay sweet.
