Being a Big Sister is SO much Fun!

 



Who knew being an older sister could be so much fun. Heavenly Father did sent me a little sister; just not the normal way! Let me explain a little on how she is my little sister =) When I was about 14 or so my science teacher, and neighbor, Ken, asked me if I would like a summer job watching his and Angels little girl. Of course, being 14 a summer job sounded awesome. So, I told them yes. When summer came around I started watching Kenlyn from 8 am to 3 every weekday, while Ken and Angel were at summer school. After a while though, it seemed as if I was there longer than needed. I would just stay and hang out. After the summer was over I found myself over there quite often. I started to get really attached to this family. They were fun, laid back, and very easy to get along with. Soon the next summer rolled around and they knew they didnt even need to ask me if I would baby sit. Everyday I got closer and closer to Ken, Angle, and Kenlyn. Even during the school year on some weekends when they needed a sitter, I was the first on the list. Sometimes they would come home late and I would be asleep on the couch so they would just let me sleep. AND that was the start of my nights at the Groves. Sooner than I expected, everyone in my house had moved out and it was just me and my mom. Unfortunatly, my mom worked nights a lot and I would get super scared. So Ken invited me to stay whenever I needed. At first I was a little weary but soon enough it seemed I spent all my time over there. Now, four years later, I am closer than ever to them. Literally, I spend ALL my time over here and I love it! Kenlyn is such a hoot and I always have fun with her! As you can see from the pictures!

My first and last High School Sadie Hawkins dance. It was a lot of fun. Dancing and talking and eating.. sooo much eating. The food was great and I've never seen so many cute dresses before! Only one more dance before my high school dances are over.. Senior Prom.
