Every other Sunday, I see these adorable kids on our newscast for Kyna's Kids.
Kyna has been a Big Sister to a Little in the community and she always talks about how fun and rewarding it is!
I decided to apply and go through the whole interview process to be a "Big Sister." It was a long process, which it should be because they don't obviously want to match a "Little" with just any random person.
Then this week I got the call that they have matched me up with a Little Sister!
Now I am already a big sister to two little brothers which I love and adore. They are both back home with my mom. They could be trouble at times, but they are really good kids. Both teenagers.. YIKES!!! It worries me because I am not back home to watch them like a hawk! lol
I know what it's like to be a sister to three brothers total, but I've never had a sister!
These Are My Confessions.
I am so excited... and I am so nervous! What will she be like? Will she like me? What's her name? I just know a few things so far like she is 10 and loves the Jonas Brothers... they are singers right?
Looks like I am definitely going to need some advice from moms out there about what a 10 year old likes, doesn't like, about their school work and stuff.
Although nervous and excited, I am really glad I can be a mentor and a friend to someone in Abilene, and have this girl look up to me and know she can count on me.
I get to meet her really soon, I will keep you updated on my journey and will ask you for advice on fun things to do in Abilene with a 10 year old!

Ooh, that's exciting! I've never had a little sister OR a "little sister" but my best friend did and we took her to the beauty college to get $5 manicures. The girls at the college were great and let her pick glitter to go on top of the polish... It was fun.
