“Our roots say we’re sisters, our hearts say we’re friends.”
~Anonymous~
With both of our parents now gone, the four Walker Sisters find it more important than ever to meet for our quarterly Sister Sessions. Today was one of those days and it was grand to be together again. We all always agree that we feel closer to our Mama when we are at a table sharing a meal, sharing our life and our hearts. Life is busy, that’s for sure. Often , are too tired to travel to each other for our gathering. Yet, we all consider it a priority to make a date at least every three months. And we easily recall how our Mama always said , “You can sleep when you’re dead.”
It is a time we pass along clothes we no longer wear and recommend books we have read. We encourage and edify each other, and we laugh until we cry over memories we recall. We bring our calendars and note important upcoming occasions.
We all want to continue the loving legacy that began with our parents when they married in 1947.
We love our two brothers and we miss them when they’re not with us, but they wouldn’t want to join us for a Sister Session, ’cause it’s all girl talk.
Girls should always make time to connect whether they are friends, sisters, moms/daughters, nieces/aunts, neighbors and others.
Girls need time to share what is going on in their world with someone who cares.
Our Sister Session is a great opportunity for this.
Love your tradition with sister sessions! I’m surprised Cracker Barrel didn’t throw you out of there! Your momma must have taught you all how to behave in public.
