I have known my cousin since the day I was born...ObviouslyShe literally has been my "sister from another mister"... and from another mother! Our moms are sisters and it makes our bond so close!I have never had a legit sister, and I am definitely missing out...But, my cousin has definitely filled up that missing space.

She is the only person that truly recognizes me for who I am.

Our bond has never been stronger, which I am truly blessed for. Do you ever have friends that you love to death, but you just feel like that close, family-bond feeling is missing? Well not with this chick!

She helps me get through my most-toughest times.

She is always backing me up and lifting me up whenever necessary. She is one of few people who actually remember the reasons why I got so angry, why I needed space or what I am actually feeling.

We have such a sister-like relationship that will never change.

At the age of ten, we made a pinky promise we'd be each others' bridesmaids. Now, she is going off on her own ready to experience the real world.

My cousin is ready to give herself to a man whom she loves, and I cannot wait to see how happy she will be.

To the man who is marrying her- Please remember she has a good heart and soul. Her temper may come out, but be patient. She will calm down. Please be there for her and be her best friend. Make her smile, and keep her in check.

Our best-friend/sister bond will never change. I can't wait for our children to be best friends, too. I love you forever.

Grandma must be so proud of us!
