Couldn't have said it better myself..

Being the oldest sister in my family has been the most wonderful blessing. There is a feeling you get when you see your little sister become a mom that is so hard to describe. I imagine it is close to the feeling you have when you watch your own children become parents. It's a mixture of gratitude, love, humility and pride. Babies are miracles. They come into this world with unlimited potential, unconditional love for their families, and brand new little feet that haven't even been used yet (as Carrie puts it). Moms are miracles. Each child completely fills your heart, but you somehow have enough room to completely love the next one, and the next... Families are miracles. They are the Lord's way of protecting you from the world while preparing you for it. When you have loving parents, it isn't so hard to imagine a Father in Heaven who loves you as well. There is nothing more important in the world *my older sister Jen wrote this and I had to put it on my blog.. in case you don't check hers! Jen, what you said is perfect, I love you!
