Sierra’s been my little sister for about two years now, and she’s recently turned 12 (going on 18!). She just moved out to Redmond to live with her dad, and even though we don’t see each other as much, she’s loving her new school, and making great friends. She’s also getting certified as a babysitter to make some spending money (she’ll be great because she loves kids!). I’m so happy for her!
In response to Chris’s post about what to do with his little brother, it’s sooo easy!! The most fun times I’ve had with Sierra have been totally unplanned and unstructured. For instance, she thinks it’s really cool if we just go and run my errands together. I can’t understand this, but she digs it! Or just hanging at my house, making mac and cheese and watching American Idol. Things I’d be doing anyway, she feels like a grown up that she gets to do them with me. And the littles LOVE flashing their “little” card at restaurants, stores, etc. to get discounts and special privileges. Chris…thank you for being such a great addition to our community, and for being a mentor and making a difference in your little brother’s life!
