A Letter To My Sisters

As my little sisters' birthday draws near, I thought I would write them a letter about what it's been like to their big sister.

Dear B and C,

I cannot begin to tell you guys how much I love you. You two have changed my life in more ways than you know. I am so lucky to have sisters like you and I don't know what I would do without you. We may drive each other crazy but it's with love.

Happy 15th birthday. I cannot believe my little sisters are 15. Because I was almost five when you two were born, I only have vague memories. However, I remember being so excited to meet you two. Dad and I raced down this hill from the parking lot to the hospital doors and then we walked into mom's hospital room. She had this doctor's kit which was "from" you two. I don't remember much after that, but I remember helping Mom and Dad out around the house, grabbing bottles, bibs, diapers and other things. You two turned our house upside down but in the greatest way. I finally had two people to brag about, two people to play with, two people to blame stuff on, and it was great.

I want you to know how proud I am of you two. The things you have done and accomplished are amazing. I can't wait to see what you will do in the future. I have loved going to your many softball/basketball games and other sports that I can't keep track or don't understand. I love seeing you sing throughout much of your lives, most recently with the Nightingales. Even though I have been away at school and have had to miss some of these events, I very much enjoy hearing about them.

I love being your big sister. I love being with you, going to your games, going on vacations, or just having dinner together. We always have something to laugh about. I like that I can be there for you if there is a problem or you need advice. I am always going to look out for you so get used to it.

I am so lucky to have sisters like you. I love you so much.

Happy Birthday!

Love, Maddie

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
