A sister is someone more special than words.
She's love mixed with friendship, the best things in life.
She's so much inner beauty blended together with an outward
appearance that brings a smile to the happiness in your heart.
A sister is one of the most precious people in the story of your life.
And you'll always be together, whether you're near or apart.
Together, you have shared some of the most special moments
two people have ever shared.
A sister is a perspective on the past,
and she's a million favorite memories that will always last.
A sister is a photograph that is one of your most treasured possessions.
She's a note that arrives on a special day,
and when there's news to share,
she's the first one you want to call.
A sister is a reminder of the blessings that come from closeness.
Sharing secrets. Disclosing dreams. Learning about life together.
A sister is a confidante and a counselor.
She's a dear and wonderful friend,
and - in certain ways - something like a twin.
She's a hand within your hand;
she's so often the only one who really understands.
A sister is honesty and trust enfolded with love.
She's sometimes the only person who sees the horizon from your point of view,
and she helps you to see things more clearly.
She is a helper and a guide,
and she is a feeling, deep inside,
that makes you wonder what you would ever do without her.
What is a sister?
She's someone more special than words;
someone beautiful and unique.
And in so many ways,
there is no one who is loved so dearly.
