Ok...today I was supposed to post about the weekend and how it was such a great one. We went to the zoo, the park, and did all that fun stuff with Lilly but after what happened today, that was bound to change.
Here's what happened...I was with a few of my friends today and one of their cousins came over to watch a movie with us. Mom came to pick me up and she had Lilly Jayde with her and my friends cousin asked me if Lilly and me had the same dad. I just told her no and didn't say anything else about it. Then a few minutes later me and my friend were talking about our Lilly "anniversary" that we just recently celebrated and her cousin said "Oh so she isn't really your sister?" I just gave her
the look and said "Yes, she is really my little sister, my adopted little sister." and then once again nothing else was really said. Now, this is where it happens...this is where I almost lost it right there. Me and mom were getting ready to leave and Lilly Jayde was having a fit because she didn't want to ride in her carseat. I was trying to calm her down and my friend's cousin said "I wouldn't be able to deal with that since she isn't
really your sister
. UGHHH! I don't know if that would offend any of you but it really did me. I could feel my face getting red when I said
(in a raised voice) SHE IS REALLY MY LITTLE SISTER!!!! Oh my goodness! I don't understand why some people feel that way about adoption. I mean how could someone say that about this precious baby girl who I am so in love with??? She is my LITTLE SISTER and I will say that to anyone who thinks otherwise. Just because we don't have the same parents and we don't look alike doesn't mean that she wasn't meant for us. WHEW!!! That one got to me.
Sorry to make this an angry blog.

Here is an adorable picture that I took yesterday, maybe this will lighten things up a little...
