Last night, Kels moved into her new dorm. I had a paper to write and didn't finish in time to help her move in. I was bummed out, because believe it or not I really wanted to be there to help. When I called Momma to check how things were, we only talked briefly because Kelsey was calling on the other line. I hung up the phone and went back to my table in the coffee shop where I was studying.
Then it hit me. My little sister is all grown up.
I guess I have been so excited for her, and we've all been talking about her going to A&M for so long now, I just didn't realize it actually all happened. Just a couple of weeks ago she graduated from highschool, and tonight she is in a dorm at Texas A&M University.
I immediatley called Momma back. I couldn't even focus on talking to Momma though, because I wanted to know how to get to Kels's dorm right then. I packed up all my stuff, paper still not written, and drove to Kels's new dorm. Momma had told me that her new roomate has not moved in yet, and that she was there alone. I hated that! I just wanted to make sure she was ok...
I drove into the parking lot and saw Kels waiting for me. My little sister. My very best friend. Standing infront of her new college dorm. It was so awesome.
We hung out out for a couple of hours, and just sat and talked like we always do. (Also because her tv and internet are not hooked up yet. :) )
Any part of me that was worried about her was now gone. My little sister is such a strong young woman. I look up to her so much. I don't think any big sister could of been as proud of their little sister as I was last night.
Momma has told both of us our whole lives that she always loved every minute of us growing up. She told us to enjoy every part of our lives that God gives us, and to never look back. I remember this every day, and pray that Kelsey will as well. I am so excited for her!!! :)
I am so blessed that God gave me my best friend as my little sister.
