My baby sister

Now when my mum had died i was 7 so my baby sister she was 2 she never had any memories of our mum because she was very young and we never had much photo's to get her. After my mum died my baby sister was taken well not really taken but was looked after by her god parents. People my mum trusted to bring her up, they did she was given a better life then one our dad could ever give her.

Now to understand why my mum would give away her baby you need to understand the Maori way or our family way. My mum was brought up in a family of 12 and one her sisters couldn't have any babies, so another sister gave up one of hers daughters so that her sister could be a mummy and another sister did the same. Then as those kids got older one of our cousins couldn't have a baby so my cousin that was given tp my aunty said she would have one for her, but unfortunately she lost him at 8 months so that's how my mums family was they gave everyone that counld be a mum a chance too. The good thing was they knew who their parents were and why they were given to them it was never hidden away we all knew where we were from

So my baby sister went to a loving family one where they didnt have children it wwas just her, i don't have much memories of her but i do have some like this one time when she was a baby she was having a problem doing a poo, she was crying hard out and i remember watching my mum trying to help her and comfort her.

 Then i remember seeing her at a family get together they were having a dancing contest with flashing lights, music up loud, but no one got up too dance. Then you see my little baby sister walk out of nowhere and started dancing hard out everybody was clapping yelling GO ______ GO______ GO she then won herself a very big Easter

 Then to the time we would get a birthday invitation, my other sister and i walked to her house carrying her present at first we were to scared to walk in but her other family welcomed us in. When ever she had a party they always invited us we were always included her new family they always welcomed my sister and i in. Then i remember this one time her nanny had brought her up to see us but she couldn't stay long she just wanted to drop us some lollies off. Or my babysister dropping off a christmas present and telling us what she got us, "It's a box of biscuits"   

 And then the sad news that they were moving away we never seen her for a long time after they left but every year we would get invited to her birthday parties and they would come and pick us up then drop us off. And once she learnt how to write we would get heaps of letters and photos from her telling us of how much fun she had at this place that place she had been to alot of cool places, i would write back to her  all of the time but i would only send half of them because i would have to steal stamps from HER so i send my letters

My baby sister had a good life one which she was loved and i think my mum would be happy she made a good choice
