for Debby, My Sister, My Treasure, Wow! Is she cool!

When I was a little girl, I had a baby sister. She had one blue eye and one brown eye. I loved her very much. When she was sick, she went to the hospital and I never saw her again. My mommy was very sad. My daddy was very sad. I was sad.

I wanted a sister more than anything in the world.

My mommy brought home another baby. This baby was a boy. He was cute and I loved him, but he wasn't a sister. My daddy would take him hunting and fishing, but who would play with me?

One night I was looking into the sun as it slipped behind the horizon. The sky looked like angels. I asked God, "Please, could you send me another sister. I promise to take really good care of this one."

And you know what? He did.

And you know what else?

I did.
