Dear Big...

To the one who welcomed me with open arms.
To the one who always (always, always, always) knows the right thing to say.
To the one who has the ability to make absolutely everyone feel valued.
To the one who supports me unwaveringly.
To the one whose ability to listen, truly listen, should be a model for us all.
To the one who gives me a reality check when needed.
To the one who makes Butler feel like home.
To the one who is always on the same wavelength as me.
To the one whose hugs have the power to change my day.
To the one who matches my crazy.
To the one whose smile lights up the room.
To the one who inspires me every day with her heart for others.
To the one who is so utterly selfless.
To the one wise beyond her years.
To the one who is a leader is every sector of her life.
To the one whose wit and sarcasm bring me to tears on the regular.
To the one who works so incredibly hard to reach her dreams.
To the one who is naturally kindhearted and optimistic.
To the one who is crazy intelligent.
To the one who has an appropriate gif for every situation.
To the one who has such discipline and determination in every aspect of her life.
To the one who understands the value of a good night’s sleep (…but at the same time works out regularly. Talk about balance. Wow. Inspiration).
To the one who reeled me in (and maintains my love tbh) with her passion for ice cream.
To the one who willingly and excitedly runs errands with me.
To the one whose chocolate stash would make anyone envious (and she allows me to raid it).
To the one who always says yes to a food run.
To the one who rocks the bangs like no other.
To the one who diagnoses me and nurses me back to health.
To the one who scolds me for not eating enough.
To the one who acts as my everyday personal counselor.
To the one who has, in under a year, come to know me better, and more deeply, than anyone.
To my person.
To the one I am lucky enough to call my sister.
To the one I am lucky enough to call my Big.
Big, I am oh so thankful for you. All that you are astonishes and inspires me every day. You bless my life more than you know; I would not be who I am today without you and your ever-positive influence in my life. I love you lots, my friend.
xoxo
A Forever Grateful, Overly-Emotional Little
