Meet the Sisters... Now that they're older, they like to call themselves the Silver Sisters. Each one has their own style, some how, that helps them to compliment each other.
They do their own thing, have their own style. I guess that's why they can handle living in the same house as each other.
When they need time away from one another, each one does their alone time their own unique way. They love each other, truly. But after a long week of work, even the best of sisters needs a break. They call it our "Sisterly Sabbatical"—that sacred time when the phones are silenced and we lean into the things that make us us.
But here’s the secret: even when they are alone, they're never really apart. Here is how they spend our quiet hours.
Evelyn: Reflection Beyond the Mirror
For Evelyn, alone time isn't just about the sequins and the hair; it’s about the woman underneath the beehive. You’ll find her in her dressing room, but she’s often staring past her reflection, thinking about the journey they’ve shared. She uses this time to find the inner strength she needs to keep being the "Motivation Expert" for her siblings.
Her Personal Saying: "A mirror only shows you who you are today; inner reflection shows you the sisters who helped you get here."
Her Secret Appreciation: She often looks at a vintage photo of the four of them on her vanity, silently thanking Grace for keeping them moving forward when things get tough.
Grace: The Logic of Legacy
When Grace head-dives into a technical project, it’s not just about the machines. As she takes apart a vintage radio or masters a new code, she’s thinking about how to build a legacy for her family. Her "edgy" exterior softens when she's alone, and she uses the quiet to solve problems that will make life easier for all of them.
Her Personal Saying: "I don't just fix things to see how they work; I fix them so my sisters don't have to worry about them."
Her Secret Appreciation: While she works, she often hums a melody Maddie wrote, admiring how her sister can find peace in a world that feels so chaotic.
Maddie: Rooted in Gratitude
Maddie takes "quiet time" literally. In her garden, she moves through her Tai Chi routine with a focused, flowy energy. As she tends to her plants, she sees them as a metaphor for her family—each one unique, needing different care, but all sharing the same soil.
Her Personal Saying: "A garden flourishes when every flower has room to breathe, but they all bloom better when they're planted together."
Her Secret Appreciation: She often picks a bright flower to bring inside for Dot, knowing her youngest sister’s joy is the light that keeps the whole house warm.
Dot: The Heartbeat of the Home
Dot spends her solo hours organizing the family archives—scrapbooks, old tapes, and digital photos. Even when she’s doing her "Happy Dance" to an upbeat record, she’s doing it to celebrate the fact that she has three best friends for sisters. She is the one who keeps the history so they never forget how far they’ve come.
Her Personal Saying: "I’m never truly alone because I’m carrying three lifetimes of sisterly secrets in my heart."
Her Secret Appreciation: She’ll often stop what she’s doing just to send a quick "thinking of you" text to Evelyn, knowing that even a glamorous leader needs to be cheered on sometimes.
