On Oprah, she mentioned that Tuesday April 10th was National Sibling Day although only half the states recognize it and the other half don't. Her audience was filled with siblings and her show was about siblings.
I liked the little adopted girls from China story the best. Both adopted by Americans (two different families), both named them Mia, and from a post in an online adoption community, the two Moms met, chatted, then found similarities to the stories, traded pictures and saw more similarities. They had DNA testing done and found out that the two girls were sisters. Both had been abandoned at the same place at different times then placed in an orphanage, then adopted.
Kudos to the Mom raising her children alone after her husband's sudden death. They turned out fine. She said she kept them at home, in school, and in church.
Here is my quick sibling story:
My daughter had to have several teeth removed because her mouth was too small.
We took her to the dentist and she underwent surgery. We brought her home and she was resting/sleeping on the sofa when my son came home from kindergarten.
Not use to seeing his sister knocked out he turned and asked me if she was dead.
I had to explain to him that the drugs they gave her made her very tired and sleepy for a day or so.
Siblings can be funny.
