Mom and Dad, Since I don't say it enough, thank you for all that you do...

.....Would be a cliche way to start to express the amount of love I have for both of you. Actually, I do express how much I love and appreciate both of you regularly and I want to tell you why I do this.

I wouldn't have become who I am today without the both of you. Thank you for instilling core values in me and teaching me right from wrong. I may not have always been so grateful for this growing up, but I am now.

Thank you, for standing by my side. It is no secret that I was a little diva growing up, so thank you for having patience and loving me through it all.

Thank you, for inspiring me every day with how hard both of you work. I hope to one day be as successful and passionate as the both of you. I feel so blessed that I have two parents that are complete opposites but, come together to form a union. A union that has given both, my brother and I balance and structure to build a future with.

Thank you for allowing me to make my own decisions growing up and letting me express my personality. I am confident in who I am today because I had parents who allowed me to be me, every step of the way. Thank you for reminding me that only God can judge me and to always be myself.

Thank you for spoiling me and giving me the world, but also teaching me the importance of hard work and the value of a dollar.

Thank you for supporting my dreams and helping me achieve them, even when my dreams change every month. Thank you, for always making me feel important and loved.

Thank you for always being there for me when I needed a shoulder to cry on, which was a lot. Thank you, for teaching me how to take deep breathes when I am anxious and how to appreciate the good in life, because there is so much of it.

Thank you, for understanding everything about me, more than I understand about myself. Thank you, for making me strong and passing down your big hearts to me.

Thank you, for making home a place I want to be and somewhere full of love.

I will forever be grateful for the both of you, and this is why I tell you I love you, every day.

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.

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.
