Melinda and I were 13 months apart. She is older. We were like salt and pepper. She had dark hair and brown eyes and I was a toe head with light blue eyes. People couldn't believe that we were sisters because I was taller and she looked Mexican with her tan. Now as sisters we played a lot together, and we also fought together. One day I remember us trying to share a half of watermelon. Even though that is a lot of watermelon for two kids, I remember her trying to eat fast so she could get the most. When I realized what she was doing it made me mad, so I tried to eat the most. We must have been arguing enough to get a reaction from my mother. Now you have to know that my mom wasn't a yeller. My mom was so annoyed with us that she said, " Fight, go ahead and fight!" She was making us fight. We were so surprised that our mom would make us fight that we both started laughing, I mean bent over laughing and that ended the argument. I still remember that day and feel like laughing.
