The joys of being a big sister =)

So we all know that I'm a sister, a big sister of 8 siblings, and it's freakin' wonderful that I get that full time job/lifestyle. Being away at school though, while that's still my title, I don't get to be an active big sister as much as I want to be; I can only do and say so much with being 3 and a half hours away =( Which can be a a sad thing but at the same time it gives the younger sisters a chance to be the large and in charge ones around the house. I don't think I realized how much I missed being in that role until the other day when I got to be the big sister to someone who isn't related to me!
She's a transfer by the name of Hannah, cute as a button too, and she was going through a hard time with her love life and walk with Christ; my wonderful roommate (whom I know Hannah through) is the one who said that Hannah and I should talk and share our stories and our Christ experiences. So we did. :D. And one of the things that made me most excited was that I got to share was my love life with Christ! As I started talking, I realized I was talking to her the way I would one of my sisters: speaking from experience, love, and gentle rebuke. And not just from one girl to another girl. It was sister to sister. It was incredible. I ALSO got to give her the 2 of the most essential things in my life that are blessings and encouragement to any girl! Waterproof mascara and my copy of Jesus Calling. Any girl who doesn't have the 2 of those things to go through life with, come and find me and I will hook you up. Forrealz. I don't know, it just felt so so good to be able to be with someone and know for a fact that it good things for the both of us. So happy. SO happy =DDD
