With the premiere of TLC’s DC Cupcakes, we asked you to share your favorite memory of you and your sister together in our Sister Blog Contest. Katherine and Sophie from Georgetown Cupcake have a special sisterly bond, and it was exciting to see that many of you do as well. We received quite a few sweet, silly and inspiring stories in response…and today we are excited to announce the winner!

Congratulations to Kiana, a first-time blogger who submitted a touching story about her sister Daneen. In her story, Kiana explains Daneen’s struggles with Rett syndrome, a disorder of the nervous system that leads to developmental reversals. The bond that Kiana and big sister Daneen share is inspiring and brought tears to both Katherine and Sophie’s eyes (as it surely will for many of you).

Thank you to everyone who took the time to share their memories and stories about their sisters with us and the world, and congrats again to Kiana for winning a $500 VISA gift card — good for a great for a present for (or maybe even a visit to) Daneen!

DC Cupcakes will be back for a second season, but you can catch up on the first season with a special marathon on September 11 at 1pm ET/PT on TLC!
