10 Reasons Why I'm Thankful For My Big Sister
Johnna West

There is no one else like her. She can brighten my day with a simple phone call and can make me feel like I can conquer the world with a little advice. She has my back no matter the situation. I know that others will come and go but my sister will forever be there. She chooses to be that sister that every young girl dreams of having and I could not thank the Lord enough for blessing me with such a wonderful sister. She is my hero and if I can grow up to be half the person she is I will be completely satisfied.

1. She’s been there since day one.

She has been there through it all. She saw every milestone you took and every setback you struggled with. She knows anything and everything about you that you could possibly think of.

2. She doesn’t sugar coat anything.

She will tell you exactly how it is because she knows what is always in your best interest. After all, she is the one who has been there and done that so she’s only trying to protect you from making the same mistakes she did.

3. She gives the best advice.

I’ve never had someone give me better advice than my sister. She knows just what to say to make me feel like everything will be okay again and she always ends up being right.

4. She has a pretty killer wardrobe.

At one time you may have hated the fact that you got all of her hand me downs but now you love the moments when she asks if you want her clothes because shopping in her closet is your favorite place to shop.

5. She has some great stories on you.

She can tell the wild stories about you that you don’t even remember. She remembers every funny thing you said as a toddler and when you accidently slipped that dirty word you heard someone say.

6. She supports you.

She doesn’t care what career you choose or what college you go to as long as it makes you happy. She wants the best for you and is willing to help you in any and all ways to help you get there.

7. She holds your favorite memories.

You’ve laughed with her until you’ve cried because you both think the stupidest things are the funniest. She stayed up with you until 3:00 A.M. watching your favorite movies and talking about the latest down low on your hometown.

8. She is forgiving.

Most people can’t handle your sassy attitude or your undeniably bratty moments, but she loves you nevertheless. You made her so angry at times when you were younger but she always forgave you because she cares about you more than any other friend ever could.

9. She despises everyone you do.

Anyone who has done you wrong basically did just as wrong to her. If a boy broke your heart or you get in a fight with a friend she is always going to have your back no matter the situation.

10. She knows what it’s like to deal with your parents.

Whatever is going on with you and your parents she probably went through it first. She can be that little push that helps you get through it, and it’s always nice to have someone there who knows the struggle.

Big sister, you will never know how much you truly mean to me. I love you to the moon and back.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).
