Adding Text to Sidebar

Hello.
Can anyone tell me how can add some text to my sidebar without breaking the layout. I’ve added it in the sidebar.php template but it moves my sidebar down.

This is what my sidebar looks like:
<!-- begin sidebar -->
<div id="sidebar">

<?php if (function_exists('wp_theme_switcher')) { ?>
<div id="themes">
<h3><?php _e('Themes'); ?></h3>
<?php wp_theme_switcher(); ?>
</div>
<?php } ?>

<div id="categories">
<h3><?php _e('Categories:'); ?></h3>

<ul>
<?php wp_list_cats('sort_column=name&optioncount=1&feed=rss'); ?>
</ul>
</div>

<div id="blogroll">
<h3>Links</h3>

<ul>
<?php get_links(-1, '
<li>', '</li>
', ' - '); ?>

</ul>
</div>

<div id="archives">
<h3><?php _e('Archives:'); ?></h3>

<ul>
<?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly&show_post_count=1'); ?>
</ul>
</div>

<div id="meta">
<h3><?php _e('Meta:'); ?></h3>

<ul>
<?php wp_register(); ?>

<li><?php wp_loginout(); ?></li>
<li><a href="http://gmpg.org/xfn/">XFN</a></li&gt;
<li><a href="http://wordpress.org/">">WP</a></li&gt;
<?php wp_meta(); ?>
</ul>
</div>

</div>

<div class="both"></div>

</div>

<!-- end sidebar -->

I’m trying to add text above the Categories list.
