When Paul and i first started dating i knew he came from a pretty big family, which was very scary for me, coming from a fairly small one. i knew he had over six step-siblings, over 40 cousins, 8+ aunts and uncles.. the list goes on and on. I knew his dad was 6'7 and he was incredibly close with his mom. But I also knew there was one person that Paul loves more than anyone else in the world, his sister Chrissy. Even with tons and tons of Wilsons and Ryles waiting for me to meet them, there was only one person I knew i'd really have to pass the test with, and she was the first one i met!
Of course within five minute of meeting Chrissy i understood why Paul cares about her so much. Because she is seriously goofy and funny, ridiculously smart (seriously.. who goes to college for math), can hang with anyone, and always brings the fun.
I know from personal experience how strong the bond between siblings can be, but Paul and Chriss take it to a whole new level. Paul would seriously do anything for Chrissy, anything. It's one of my favorite things about him, and about her. I think coming from such a huge family, going through a divorce as older children, and going off to school together made them exceptionally close. But seriously guys, i don't care if you've donated organs to your siblings, these Wilson kids have you beat.
WHICH is why we were so excited to have Chrissy come visit us on Memorial Day weekend. We celebrated the holiday by drinking, shopping (duh), dog-parking, pool-partying and just hanging out. It was the perfect weekend and I know how happy it made Paul to have his crazy kid sis here for a little while, and we absolutely cannot wait to see her again.
