Nothing beats sister love.

Let me tell you about my day today.  I got up early (as I do every day), dropped Rowan off at school, had one of the worst workouts in a long time, went back to Rowan's school for their Chinese New Year celebration, and came home feeling exhausted.  Somehow, I convinced Rowan to take a shower with me and so we all piled into our dual headed shower to get clean.

I hear a noise downstairs.
I don't get nervous but wonder if I am hearing things.
I hear more noise and think perhaps it is our neighbor.
I hear the bathroom door open.
I peak out of the curtain.
I SEE MY SISTER!

The sister who lives 3000 miles away.
The sister who I am always missing.
The sister who I have been trying to convince to come here.
The sister who is insanely busy.

For a minute, I couldn't believe my eyes.  Was she really there?  Wait, blink, is it really her?  I just stood there smiling.  My first thought was that she was here for work and was just going to come hang with me for the afternoon.  But, I am lucky enough to have her here for 5 days.  I still can't believe it.  I love this surprise...couldn't love it more.
