Do you have any siblings?

Happy National Siblings Day, friends — that most glorious of days when we all take a moment or two to pause and really appreciate our siblings. Founded by Claudia Evart following the tragic death of her brother and sister, the day has even been recognized by 40 governors.

“Like many, I have these pictures of my brother and sister, who are both gone, but remain with me daily, not just in these pictures, but in my daily thoughts and in my heart. I lost both of them in tragic accidents, making me understand the everlasting bond we have with our siblings,” says Evart.

So, Janelle, it’s no secret that we’ve been through a lot together, but I wouldn’t want to share this roller coaster journey with anyone but you. I’m proud to be your big sister and even prouder to call you my little sister. Here’s to many more great years together!!

Do you have siblings, friends? Are you the oldest, youngest or somewhere in the middle? Any sibling lessons you’d like to share? Make sure to give your siblings an extra hug today — they deserve it! xoxo
