An Open Letter To My Little Brother
mcall

Little brother, I love you. As much as we fight and argue, I do. You were my first best friend. Even though you tried to get me to wrestle and play football and I as much as I dressed you up growing up, you'll always low-key be my best friend.

I will always be your biggest fan at anything you do whether it's sports or school or what. I will be there just as much as mom and more than any silly girl you're with. On that subject, I will never approve of any girl you're with. No girl is good enough for my little brother.

You're going to grow up and make your own decisions, I know you'll make them wisely. You make questionable choices sometimes, like whether or not you should wear a certain shirt, but I have faith in you. I've always bossed you around, and honestly that will probably never stop. I want the best for you even though it doesn't always seem like it.

I want to apologize. You won't hear me say i'm sorry much so take this for granted. I'm sorry that we fight. I'm sorry we but heads and disagree. I'm sorry for the silly pictures I take of you and how much I embarrass you. I'm sorry that I usually get my way and that you're usually the one who makes sacrifices and not me. I want to thank you. Thank you for everything you do for me. Thank you for encouraging and supporting me. Thank you for the piggy back rides and teaching me how to fish. Thank you for carrying the heavy things and getting the cup off of the top shelf for me. Thank you for being you.

This is for my little brother. I’m the only person who will ever be able to love and hate you at the same time. You’re going to grow up and move out, but you will never be able to get rid of me, the memories will always be there. You may be bigger and stronger than I am but you're still my baby brother.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
