4. They're your natural sidekicks and sometimes unwanted pests. They're your siblings, and you can celebrate them. Today is National Sibling Day.
Siblings can be encouragers, competitors, and even your best pals.

Like them or not, you've inherited your siblings. So give them a call, appreciate them, and makeup with them today.
