Our relationships with individuals are unique and take on their own, color, flavor, and song. My sister Carol, who is little more than one year older than me, has the unequaled ability to transport me back to a simpler time and place when days were long, responsibilities few, and laughter contagious.

I treasure the moments we’ve had, continue to have, and will have in the future. And I’d just like to say, “Thank you sister, for helping me free my joy now.”
Is there someone in your life who makes you feel the joy of childhood again?

Brava, sisters. Laugh on!
Laughter is the best medicine…thanks for such a sweet dose of it!
This was a delight to read, Christine! Great shot too. Life is better with laughter.
You’re very lucky to have a sister you can have a good relationship with, who you can trust.
Wonderful picture 🙂
Your niece captured a wonderful moment.
Thanks everybody, for letting me know you stopped by. May you share laughter today.

This is just an amazing picture and beautiful blog by #Random thoughts from midlife.
Love this pic. so meaningful and full of live I can almost smell the lavender and vanilla candles scent and the fresh wind on their silver hair, and hear their laughter of just pure joy and friendship. It brings me memories of my dear family back home. Love it, thanks for sharing. Evie
Thanks Evie. Sorry it took me so long to reply. I was traveling. To Florida, in fact, to visit my sister, where this photo was taken.
LOVE the photo. For me, it’s my sister, as well. She is so incredibly funny. Nothing like a good laugh.
Hugs from Ecuador,
Kathy
Hugs to you too.
That is just a great shot, lighting, colors, composition, all of it.
My niece has a real talent with a camera.
What a great picture. Your niece did a fine job of capturing the moment.
