The family member I want to write about is my older and only sister. Her name is Megan Oak and to say the least, she’s amazing. My sister just gave birth to her first child, a beautiful girl named Ava Nicole Dever, last Wednesday. It is still weird for me to comprehend that my sister’s last name is Dever now…and now she has a baby?! Growing up with her was perfect because she was a wonderful role model for me. The best thing is that there was never competition between any of my siblings. I can honestly say I have always wished the best for my sister (and my brother of course!), and I hope she feels very blessed with her life as a second grade teacher. Last summer, I visited her down in North Carolina with my mother and we went to see her classroom. It was so perfect and organized…she has always been so OCD with organizing things. I admire her for this. I also admire her for her practicality. My parents have always called me a princess in a teasing manner because I’m the baby of the family. Please don’t assume by this that I act like I think I actually am a princess, but I will definitely carry the act if they start throwing the name out there. Anyways, my sister is simple and practical. It is an amazing skill to have and I wish I had it. Overall, I love my sister and I hope she remains on the path she’s going down because if so, she’ll continue to have a wonderful life and a wonderful family.
