Abby

Once, the doctors said she wouldn't walk until the age of 11.
Now...she runs wherever there is space to.
Once, her existence brought tears and sorrow to the people around her.
Now...she makes us laugh so much with her antics.
Once, many thought she wouldn't amount to much.
Now...she sings the loudest in church.

Once, I would be irritated when people stared at her in the restaurants.

Now...I have learnt to thank God she is around to be stared at.

Once, I wondered what others would think of her.

Now...I'm proud to walk alongside her.

My sister turns 15 today. I love her.
