A tribute to the oldest daughter
<p>Apparently today is Eldest Daughter's Day so this is a tribute her I guess and I hope after reading this you'll appreciate your older siblings more.</p><p>A first child is a joy for any family but no one knows or doesn't realize the weight and amount of expectations that come with being the first child. The first daughter I think carries more of this expectations.</p><p>From having to take care and watch out for younger ones to having to behave properly at all times to set a good example for younger ones. From having to set a good academic and otherwise general examplary example for the younger ones to have to learn the cooking, cleaning and house chores more efficiently and better than the other siblings.</p><p>An eldest daughter is expected to have her life so put together at such a young age, some may not relate to this but this is some others reality. Quietly and meekly accepting blame for any wrong doing whether her fault or not, carrying a lot of weight on her shoulders,she still moves through life with a quiet grace, elegance and courage that is frankly inspiring if you think about it </p><p>Appreciate an eldest daughter today, you don't know how much she may have needed to hear it.</p>
