Rader Girls

Sisters are a strange thing. I am blessed to have several girlfriends that know me well. I have fun with them and they understand my quirks and blemishes. I can certainly say that of my sisters, but it goes just one step further. Not only do they know my quirks and blemishes but they know how, when and where I got those characteristics. It is rare that I get to be around both of my sisters at once. We each have individual relationships but when we're all together we meld into the Rader Girls. There is a special Rader Girl tradition that goes back many, many years. It is a rare and strange ritual that only takes place during photo ops. We can't take credit for the idea as it was passed down from our Grandmother and Aunts. It's not visible to the camera, but just be warned if you happen to be standing next to a Rader girl when it's time to say "cheese". Chances are, you'll be getting a little unexpected lovin that day.
