I suppose it's hard
being the older sibling
I only have one
who is younger than me
My little sister
she's mine and mine only
well except I share her
with my five older brothers
I'm their little sister
theirs and theirs only
except they share me
with their four siblings
There are twins in my family
middle children indeed
they both have responsbillities
they both have needs

Thought provoking.MA was the eldest sibling,she had a younger brother who she felt responsible for and who gave her the nickname that she is known by to this very day.Congratulations on the HM.

Another excellent job on a beautiful write in tribute to Maya. Done with the same flair and passion of her.
Wonderful job!
