Character Sketch - Lisa Boston

Age 7

                  Lisa is a happy child and has a close and loving relationship with her sisters and her parents. (at this time)  She is popular at school, a curious student and a leader.  She is busy with activities such as games with neighborhood children: kickball, baseball, tag, the blood of guts.  Bike-riding, playing with baby dolls and Barbies occupy her time also.  Lisa loves visiting her cousin’s farm in Barrington where she learns to role play, imagine other lifeforms, and becomes curious about the world around her.  She loves to read. 

                  She is an identical twin and is confident as long as the other twin is present or close by.  They are pretty much inseparable.  Lisa’s identity is interwoven with her twin sister’s. 

                  This dress I am wearing (is it me?) is one of a pair of non-identical dresses that my sister insisted that my mother purchase.  I cried when we had to wear them the first time because we weren’t twin like.  My sister was happy to break the mold.  I’ve really never forgiven her for that.
