Sisterly/Motherly Love

Whenever I spend time with either one of my sisters, I am amazed when I watch them be mothers. It is such a very surreal thing and it just seems to get even more so as my nieces and nephews get older. I was floored when I watched both of them dance on the line between friend and parent effortlessly, especially with their teenagers. I also caught them a few times saying things just like my parents, but don't tell them because they will either get offended or deny it to no end. It is a natural process to critique your mother and father's parenting, but watching my sisters parent is less about critiquing and more sheer amazement.
