To my little sister,
You haven't even said 'da-da' yet, but I can't wait for you to say your first word. More so, I can't wait for us to be able to have sister-sister conversations. I can't wait to hear all about your first crush, first kiss, first report card, sport, best friend, school dance, car, etc. I always have your back. It's a ride or die type thing. When you need me, I'll be here, whether it be if i'm upstairs in my room, driving, at a sporting event, or even away at college all the way across the country.
I love you more than you will ever know. I don't mind waking up at 6 am for finals week at high school after holding you for an hour or so until midnight last night. It's totally worth it for these precious sister bonding moments. Because I don't know where I will be in a couple years- so I enjoy these moments while I can and I don't take them for granted.
I love the fact that everyone comes to see you, and that they love the heck out of you. You deserve to be cuddled up in a bundle of love. I love running your Instagram account- even though everyone knows that you did not take that selfie, and you did not post up those emojis...
I love picking your outfits even though I know they are probably gonna be peed on or eaten on in a couple of hours. I love the fact that you're pretty much my real-life Barbie Doll. Tutus and princess crowns? You don't even mind- well, maybe because you're sleeping like 95% of the time.
I love the fact that you're slowly growing up and becoming "human" before my very own eyes. At first, I just didn't even see you as a tiny human. I saw you as a little baby who probably wouldn't even recognize me until she turned like 2 or 3. But you seriously already have a personality. You do little things that make me realize you are a human. I love when you smile!
I hate when you cry. It makes me sad and I just can never figure out what you're thinking. Like, did I do something wrong? Or do you just want a bottle? The world and myself may never know.
Everything I do from now on will be for you. I want to make sure that I am an awesome role model for you, and teach you how to live the best, most successful, happiest life ever.
I want to inspire you to 'live your best life.' I want you to live with no regrets, have a great time in everything that you do, and spend as much time as possible laughing and being happy, surrounded by people who make you feel loved, wanted, and beautiful. I love you so much and I cannot wait to see everything that you accomplish in your life. Always remember that you are a beautiful, independent, strong, stunning, loved, and wanted woman. I love you forever, whether I'm a mile away or 5,000.
Love always,
Your big sister
