It was a late evening after a long day and I was hungry. After a venison burger on a huge bed of lettuce, I was ready to settle in and catch up on a few emails and blog posts before calling it a night.
It had been a productive day including a short shopping excursion that afternoon to help a friend. (Yes, I served as sisterly fashion consultant, don’t be too shocked!)
After opening my email, I was delighted—overjoyed really—to see an email from a contact inviting me to speak at an event in Cuba and share some of the IRSM resources there. Wow! What a blessing. What an honor. And what a joy that I didn’t want to keep to myself!

Our heights range from 5’2” to 5’10”. Our hair colors are still distinct, but some of us are now blessed with more God highlights than before (how I refer to gray hair). We live in four different states and our relationships are each unique. They are my sisters.

This month, because of the location of various events, I will be able to spend at least two days with each of my sisters. And I couldn’t be more thrilled! I delight in the time I spend with my sisters.

We may not always agree on things. We come at life with different perspectives and insights. We have a plethora of shared experiences growing up, but the older we get, the fewer experiences we get to share together.

And so, when the opportunity presents itself to spend time together, I delight!

I delight in our friendship that has matured with time.

I delight in the shared experiences, the funny stories, the crazy memories, and the new memories being formed.

I delight in the fact that I have the privilege and honor of calling each of them my sisters.

Now before you get jealous of me, and my sisters, please know that our conversations are not always pleasant. The experiences we share are not always delightful. And some of the stories we laugh at now, were no laughing matter at the time.
