Thank you for everything

A Thank You Letter To My Big Brother
Caitlin Brossman

So to start off, I have probably have the best big brother a girl could ask for!

My brother and I are 10 years apart, I am 19 and well you can do the math because I don't think that he would like me to put his age. My brother is pretty much my best friend. Everyone that knows us tells us that we could pretty much be twins. Even though when we are together sometimes people think we are a couple. Come on people, you can't tell that we look a like! Funny story relating to the couple comment, We were in Florida and we took a day trip to Universal Studios and we took a shuttle back to our resort and everyone on the shuttle were couples, so our driver thought that we were also couple, around this time I was 15. So our driver really thought that a 15 year old was dating a 25 year old who is my BROTHER. We didn't say anything, we just laughed about it. Now he lives in New York and left me all alone. But that's okay now because I am in college now.

I am writing this to say thank you to my big brother. I do have some pictures but I don't have pictures for everything.

Thank you for all the countless laughs.

Which would be all the times you have tripped in public, me scaring you and you freaking out, or saying the first word you are thinking instead of the actual word, for explain he would say, "can you get me a rubberband?" but what he really meant was can you get a brownie. (that is a true story)

Thank you for always being there to support me.

Whether it be musicals, cheerleading at football games, PowderPuff games, Girl Scouts, graduating high school and what ever else I did, you always made sure to be there.

Thank you for always listening to my rants.

From typical girl drama to everything in between you were always there to listen

Thank you for always helping me.

For example, every time I had project, you were first person I went to and even though you did not want to do it, you still helped me. So thanks for all those A's on my projects/papers. It's confession time, my graduation cap, my brother did it, not me


Thank you for coming home for my events.

Everything, from senior rec night, musicals, powerpuff games, Winter Carnival, proms and graduation, you never missed a thing.

Thank you for always making time for me.

Before you moved to New York, no matter what time it was you always hung out with me and now you always take the time to plan my weekend trips to New York to see you and of course to see some Broadway shows as well.

And the most important one, Thank you for being my best friend.

Through it all, you were always there. No matter what it was, like my knee surgery, when I was sick, cheerleading, competitions, prom dress shopping, Winter Carnival, graduation and everything else. You were always cheering me on. You always know how to make me laugh. You truly are my best friend even though sometimes you probably didn't want to be.

Thank you for everything you have everything you have done for me and for always being in my corner. I will always be on your side through it all. Just remember when you make it big, that I will be that proud little sister in audience.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
