For as long as I can remember, all I wanted was a sister. All I had growing up was a much older big brother. So, when I joined a sorority and found out about this whole big/little thing, I knew immediately I wanted to have two littles.

Before I even had a big, I was already thinking about crafts to make for my littles. I eventually got my two perfect littles, and I couldn't be any more blessed to call them mine. Here’s what I’ve learned about being a mom (big) of two young ones:

1. Twice the amount of love.

There's nothing like hugging both your littles because you know they just love you so much.

2. They'll put you in check when you're being dramatic.

You know you're overreacting when both of them tell you you need to cut it.

3. They have each other to entertain one another.

It's like having puppies. They can have fun without you when you're busy.

4. They're your biggest support team.

They'll both cheer you on like some crazy kids, because it's just weird if they're screaming for one person by themselves.

5. You get to embarrass not just one, but two littles.

On social media. In chapter. On campus. At intramural games. Everywhere.

6. They gang up on you.

Whether it's something serious or something joking -- no matter what -- it's always out of love.

7. You get two best friends for life.

And that's the biggest blessing of it all.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, Thanksgiving has become an underrated holiday over the years. You barely see any Thanksgiving decorations in stores; it's like they skip right from Halloween to Christmas.

Some universities only get two or three days off for Thanksgiving break. Or, if your university is like mine, you get the whole week off go go home. A whole week off is a long time. I'm not complaining, because I'd rather have a whole week off than three days, but there is a lot of down time. Here are some ideas as to what you can do to get the most out of your Thanksgiving break.
