I was 11 when you were born, and in your first few years I often looked after you, bathed and dressed you and took you out for walks. I have  14  memories of your childhood. Of   15  you up as a “rock star”. Of watching you dance  16  nightclothes. Of your insistence that I make your school lunch  17 I put so much peanut butter on your  18 than anyone else. Of the  19 phone call we ever had—an echo(共鸣) of my own university years—when you wanted to  20   university and study dance.

Since we have grown up, I have lived through you, although you may not know it. You had the opportunity I so     21  wanted but never got ---to train in the dancing arts. I encouraged our parents to support you because I have always  22  how my life would be if they hadn’t chosen a(n)   23    career path for me, their eldest child.

I know you have  24  to hunt for work and confidence, and that you probably wonder sometimes if you made the right choice.  25  , I am happy for you and proud that I played some small role in helping you to  26  a dream.

There is a   27     between us now. It has grown since I first left home, and in the  28  I missed your teenager years. That  29      me greatly. I imagine that you believe we have very little in common---a   30  in the city and a biologist in West Africa—but in you I   31  some of my own dreams realized.

But beyond that, even at 12 or 13 I felt as much a mother to you as an older sister. So, on the rare   32     when we see each other, I want to know everything, from your concerns, hopes to delights.

I wish, there were an arm’s  33  between us. I hope we can one day be sisters or friends again. I still make a tasty peanut butter sandwich for you.
