Siblings… What does it mean to have one? I’ll tell you what it means. Early in the morning, peaceful sleep is interrupted by the sound of a door slamming open and an annoyed voice dryly telling you to get out of bed the easy way or hard way. Having a sibling means that when you're getting ready for school you have to maneuver around someone else because even touching them early in the morning could have them waxed for the rest of the day. Having a sibling means yelling “Ahg!” in the halls at school because someone randomly jumped on your back for no apparent reason except for “Because I felt like it.” Having a sibling means having arguments during dinner at home and listening to long jokes with no real punchline. Having a sibling means always having someone to talk with. Having a sibling means always having a new story to hear. Having a sibling means living in the same home as your best friend.
