Here she is, my new little sister

Things are going pretty good with Zikella. We are still getting to know each other so it can be a little awkward but we are spending time together and having some fun. I have struggled with the financial part of our relationship, I want to take her to do things she normally won't get to do but I also don't want to enforce the idea that the only way you can have fun is to spend money. I think I disappointed her last week when I didn't buy her a birthday gift. I know now she was expecting one but we have only known each other for 3 weeks and I want her to depend on me for friendship and support, not for money. I think I can secretly make it up to her though as my workplace has agreed to sponsor Zikella's family through the Boys and Girls Club Adopt a Family Christmas Program. We got Christmas lists for each child in her family and my co-workers will play Santa next week and drop the gifts off.
