She's a big girl now.

Yesterday, my family assisted my sister in moving into her new home. The one she will share with her soon to be new husband. This is not her first place but I am so filled with emotions now. She has completed undergrad, a master's program and almost finished with her specialist degree. She left home to attend underbgrad and got her first apartment during grad school. She has dated her fiancee for a few years now. So none of this is new but it does feel this way.

I remember her being a tomboy with glasses and polo shirts. Now she is a diva in heels and dresses. I remember her head being tilted and having crossed eyes on family pictures. She now wears makeup, diamond rings and holds her head up high. We talk everyday and if we don't then something must be wrong. Now she is getting married. She will have a husband, a family home, and begin a new life. We have to share her with her new family. We will have new memories (hoping of pregnancy and many babies being born) but the best thing of all is I will still have yesterday's memories of the times when it was just us.
