1. You took me under your wing and welcomed me into your family with open arms.

5. You are someone I look up to.

6. I know I can always count on you to pick me up when I'm stranded somewhere.

7. You support my bad decisions.

8. But you also encourage good decisions (sometimes).

9. You've taught me how to be a good Big, when the time comes (Lord help us all).

10. You'll answer my phone calls at 2 o'clock in the morning.

11. You take care of me when I'm "sick."

12. You're my mom away from mom.

13. You go out with me on a week night.

14. But you'll also stay in with me on a Saturday and eat pizza.

15. You deal with my sassiness and attitude.

16. You know me better than I know myself.

17. You're gonna be a rockin' grandma next year.

18. You always play with my hair when I ask you to. Sometimes even when I don't ask you to. Even better.

19. You've become not only my sister, but my best friend and other half.
