Sisters
I am not sure if I ever mentioned that I have two sisters. The three of us are very very close in age.
Alejandra is 2 and a half years older than me. She was the most beautiful baby girl ever born… at least that is what my mom says all the time. And I have to admit that I agree with mom, I honestly haven’t seen a baby so beautiful and girly.
Then it was my turn to take a part in the Moreno Rodriguez family. The story of my life started me being a boy. At least for the first 9 months of life inside the belly of my mom. The shape of my mom belly was so different of her first pregnancy that she was completely sure that I was a boy. My name was going to be Enrique like my grandfather. Everything was blue and with the little “E” of my name. Well surprise, surprise… It was not a boy after all… I was a girl, but nothing close to be called cute. The doctors somehow had to use forceps (that is not allow to be used during birth nowadays) and as an usual consequence, the shape of my head got a little deformed temporally… So my mom said that I had like two ball in the head, and she was so ashamed to show me to her friends, specially after the beauty of Alejandra, that she actually showed me when I was about 6 months. Since my name was supposed to be Enrique, my dad quickly decided to named me Andrea.
Then just 11 months after my birth my little sister Annabell was born. OMG… another cutie. Alejandra and I were a little alike, since we both had dark hair being Ale of a more fair skine tone. But Annabell was the blond.
The story of hour sisterhood is so full of experiences and joy… until around 5 years ago. I told my sister my sexual inclination and of course, none of them could take it very well. I guess that Venezuela is a little far away of realities like that. So both of them didn’t know how to handle it but by creating distance. I could write and write some much about how much I suffer by feeling the distance of my two adored sisters, but I am now here to celebrate the recovery of one of them.
Last year in December I went to Venezuela to spend the holidays with the Family and Alejandra surprised me with the most beautiful gifts of all times. She kind of put aside all her difficulties to understand my reality and gave me all her love. I felt the love of my big sister back again and I seriously didn’t have any word to explain how grateful I was. I am so grateful to have her as a sister. Annabell was not in town when I went so the situation with her is still the same, even though recently she requested my friendship in facebook… that is one step forwards the love we always shared.
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A SISTER, and I have two…
LOVE YOUR SISTER IF YOU HAVE ONE!!! Is one of the best feelings ever.
