An Open Letter To My Sisters

I may be the oldest, but you are not far behind me.

An Open Letter To My Sisters

I may be the oldest out of us three, but you two are not much younger than me. I was too young to remember Mom telling me that she was having twins but I remember when we were young. We may fight but I'll never forget our memories.

Dear Sisters,

It took us all three a long time before we actually became friends, but I knew we were deep down. I guess we didn't want to admit it. I always knew our personalities were completely different from another, but we could still talk and do things together.

We actually became friends when we had to move far away. We felt like we had no one else in the time of our sadness. I'll never forget all of our movie dates we had when I received my first car. I remember when you two thought I did not want to stand up to you two but I honestly was – I just didn't make a huge deal on it so you two didn't know.

I was never the smartest in school, but to the principals I was-- but most of them did not know what you two were capable of. I believe school wasn't the best for me and school was even worse for you two.

Now you are seniors. I hope school is at ease and you can go on to college for your dreams like I am. I always thought you two were bigger dreamers than me but simply never knew it. Just because I know where I want to be in life and you may not right now does not mean you are not dreamers.

I remember when I had to leave for college after another move. At this point, maybe our friendship was still there, but with school we barely spoke and for that I am sorry. I have a lot on my plate but I know you two did as well. You knew if you needed me to call.

You are both capable of so much in life. Do not quit now while you still have so much time ahead of you. I believe in you two like you always believed in me. I love you guys and I'm always here for you.

Love Always,

Your Big Sis.

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way.
