Chelsea
is my sister, older by 2 years. Her birthday’s in March, just
like mine, which seems to be a big deal, especially as the years
roll by. We tend to do a lot of things the same. I wouldn’t
say that I’m following in her foot steps, but somehow I do
things 2 years after she has already done them. She was born in
1975, I was born 2 years later; she went off to college in 1993
and I went off to college 2 years later; she got married in 1999
and I got married 2 years later (on her birthday to boot!). Now,
she’s having a baby and I’m sure, based on past chronological
history, I’ll have one 2 years later. Every so often, my mom
wonders out loud if Chelsea and I are twins who were born 2 years
apart. Sometimes I wonder the same thing. Here’s another interesting
tidbit; Chelsea has to gain 40 pounds! during her pregnancy. She’s
so skinny now that all that weight will only make her resemble a
person somewhat like myself. Would we look alike at that point?
Only time will tell…
