I have never been more excited to get to know someone. You are the person I’m going to count on to teach me, grow with me, encourage me and inspire me. Please be that. Yes, I have role models. But having a big sister like you gives role model a whole new meaning. Sisterhood is already something that’s incredibly important to me. Now, I have someone to expand the idea of it and truly teach me the depth of what it means. Don’t let me down; I need you just like every other future little needs her specific future big.

I know there will be times when we disagree. I know we won’t always want the same things in life. There will be times when I need your advice, and you might not know what to tell me. That’s okay. I just need you to love on me and support me. In return, I’ll do the exact same for you. I’ll always be there for you when you need me because that’s the entire point of it. We’re a dynamic duo, and I hope we’re inseparable. I want us to learn from each other because I know we can. The way I see it is we will be paired together for a reason. God knew what He was doing when He put you in my life, and now we get to work together to be kingdom workers. More than anything, it's important to me to have someone that will lead me in Christ. I need that kind of role model, and I hope and pray that I will get that from a big like you.

There is nobody who knows everything about me. All my favorite things, all my little quirks, all my mistakes and successes. And I can’t wait for someone to be that and know those things. You will be that for me. Hopefully, I’ll be that for you, too. We’ll build each other up as we work through hurt and heartache, and we’ll celebrate each others’ happy moments and successes. I already love the heck out of you. I am going to look up to you so much. I can’t wait for endless coffee dates, the late night talks, and someone to call at any hour of the day. I couldn’t be more excited. You’re my new person.

Lastly, I can't wait to learn from you how to be a big. Before we know it, the day will come that it's my turn to be a big. And I'm going to take after you. I can't wait to be the best version of myself for my own little, but before that, I get to be yours. So here's to us, and I love you, big.
