To my little brother
At only 10, you have taught me so much about life. You have taught me to never ever give up, to keep moving forward even when life throws so many punches, and no matter what happens, always keep thriving to be better. I never thought when I was 10 years old, the first time I met you at the hospital, we would end up being best friends. You make me so proud beyond words.
At only 10, you have exceeded all my expectations for you in sports. Even though you love basketball, baseball is your life. When you grow up you want to be in the MLB (Major League Baseball) and play for the Pittsburgh Pirates. I will do whatever it takes to push and support you to get there. I love going to your baseball games, there is nothing else I would rather do during my summer nights. Every game I cheer you on until I do not have a voice because you never have an "off" game. You are the best 10-year-old pitcher there is.
At only 10, you are so smart. Fourth grade is such a breeze for you, and I loved when mom called me to tell me how you're already on a fifth-grade reading level. Your teachers are very impressed with you. Even though you told me school is boring, I know you love it deep down inside. You make me feel old because I graduated high school in 2014, and you're going to be a big senior in 2025. Don't blink, it will be here before you know it, and I'll be 28 years old at your graduation (yikes!).
At only 10, you make me laugh more than anybody else. You always have the most annoying comments to anybody that says anything stupid. Your dance moves are out of this world. I always laugh so hard when you FaceTime me just to "dab" on the phone. I love your daily Snapchats. They make going to college two hours away a little easier. You always discover the newest Snapchat filters and put them to use. You truly rock Snapchat.
At only 10, you are a blessing. You are exactly what I needed and I am so thankful God gave me a little brother. I am overly excited to see all that you accomplish in your life. Even though you act like you are too cool for me, just know that I appreciate you so much. Thank you for being a sassy 10-year-old and being my role model. You are forever my little brother.
Love,
Your big sister
