Love between siblings

I was walking in the park this morning.
I saw a mother looking over her 3 daughters who were playing at the playground.
Then the mother said to them: "Girls, let's go home! Daddy's waiting for us to go breakfast together."
All of the girls pleaded their mother to let them have the swing before they go back.
The mother helped the youngest (around 2-3 years old) up the swing because she wasn't tall enough to reach.
I guess my heart warmed when i see their smile. They have got nothing in the world to worry about. They don't have to worry about exams or money problem. When they are happy, they smile; when they are sad, they cry. They dont have to squeeze a fake smile and face the world. Therefore their smile is genuine.

Then the oldest (around 6 years old i guess) decided that she had enough of swing and went to play at the slide. The 2nd (around 4 years old) started to follow her older sibling. The youngest baby wanted to go too but she couldnt get off the swing and her mother was busy with other things. She called out softly :"Jie jie, help me. Jie jie..."
The 2nd rushed to her side fearing that she might fall down.
"Be careful, mei. slowly come down. Dont fall down. Come, jie jie hold ur hand."
The 2nd was willing to miss out some fun for her babysister.
The message of love was conveyed just thru a simple act.

The love between siblings is a bond that can never be broken no matter what.

Sometimes i wished that i have an older sibling too.
