She said Sissy .. I said whats wrong.. my heart was beating fast like a drum, what was wrong now what happened.. my mind racing. Rob asked me a question and I said yes .
her hand had a huge diamond on it, I was undeniably in shock,I didnt say much, I may have muttered out Congratulations,but I dont know.. . I had to get back to work we were busy I didnt have much of a choice.
The Day I found out my only sister was Engaged, 6/17/2017
I kept thinking wow, is this really happening , then she said we picked a date, we started the engangement pics ,and they got the hall for the Reception.
Reality was smacking me in the face, My only sister..My baby sister was gonna be married, and More and more I thought im still single, well I always be this way, .. whats wrong with me, am I happy for them oh ya for sure, do I wish I could be married before her ya, its the only right thing im older. lol
Today 7/17/2017 were going for her first look at the dresses her first appointment to start trying on her dresses ..
As we sifted through dresses, pinning ones she liked, I kept thinking wow this is Real.. My baby sister is getting married.
The other side of me kept thinking this well never be you .. You well always be a bridesmaid, or maid of Honor, Its not that I dont think I deserve a Happy Ending its, Just that Im so used to being alone, Im too set in my ways.
Dress shopping was Successful she found her dress .. The reality kept coming, shes got the guy, soon she well move out of mom and dads,and soon my baby sister well be a married woman.
We went dress shopping for myself and mom, no luck for mom yet but I got my dress, still waiting on to retrieve it , but I got the dress, the color and its long which I wont lie I'm surprised I like short dresses, I like showing off my legs, But this was the only dress a really liked on me and was something close to what sister wanted, Way to long of dress shopping if you ask me I like shopping as much as any other person but trying on dresses drives me Nuts.
We just recently went to my cousin Jason's wedding, he like Andrea got lucky they found there happily ever after.Hes also one of the younger ones. Still he found what makes him happy, and when it was all said and done and our family was all here It was amazing, so nice to have them all together, Next they well all be back for sisters wedding,And the reality well hit me in the face a few more times before that, like looking through there pics, I'm slowly putting a scrapbook together, and I keep thinking wasnt it just yesterday that my parents were telling me I was going to be a big sister...
Next year well be you two..
Today its a week until my sister says I do..6/16/18
Don't get me wrong I'm excited for my sister,but I keep thinking this should have been me, I should have gotten married first, and it stings a little more when the one person I want to accomied me to the wedding cant. But that's what I get when I think there's even a little chance ,..
The week of the wedding has come and its almost over, the 60 lbs of potatoes, and 11 cartons of eggs..and many Mayo containers and One Huge relish jar later.. we have countless bowls of potato salad , so the rest well be easy.
My wish for my sister as we do the set up and finish getting prepared that she remembers this is a once in a life time experience and this is nothing easy about it, marriage either.(not that i have experience)
One more day, My sister well officially be a Hofer , Im happy to be standing by her side as she gets ready to say I do, and she doesn't seem nervous at all,which is good by all means!
True Love well conquer your fears, and No more well your heart break,You've found the one who is your forever,Be happy, and know forever he is by your side.
