Just because I'm family does NOT mean that:
1. You can walk all over me.
2. Expect me to be at your beck and call when I'm on VACATION.
3. I am willing to help but a "Please" and "Thank you" are ALWAYS welcome.
4. Even though I love you it doesn't mean that I will agree with you or want to do things your way.
I love my family dearly but sometimes I feel like I am being taken for granted. As much as I want to please them, I'd rather be happy. I know that sometimes family needs help and I am willing to give in what I can.. but when I'm the only one, or one of the few, in a HUGE family like mine it makes me upset. Why can't life be all rainbows and butterflies?
But on the upside.. I have to say that I have some of the most AMAZING sisters anyone could ask for, and I'm sure right about now they are feeling just as "used" as I am. At least we're in it together.
Sister to sister we'll always be, A couple of nuts from our family tree.
