They drive us crazy but they also keep us sane. Having older sisters is one of the biggest blessings (even if it doesn't always feel like it). I am lucky enough to have not one, but two amazing sisters. I do not always get a chance to thank them for all that they do, so here is twelve things I forgot to thank my older sisters for.

1. Thank you for telling me in third grade that I probably shouldn't wear basically the same outfit all the time.

You saved me a lot of embarrassment.

2. Thank you for letting me hang out with you and your friends.

I am sure I was probably the stereotypical dorky and annoying little sister but you never made me feel like it.

3. Thanks for picking me up in your awesome cars.

Whether it was from school, a friend's house, the mall, or to take me somewhere. Extra thanks for the cool music that was played during the trips.

4. Thanks for taking as many selfies of us as we need to so we both look equally great.

You got the better genes, let's be honest.

5. Thank you for helping me figure out who I should hang out with in high school.

You saved me a lot of trouble, thanks for the heads up.

6. For being like a second Mom.

If mom was work or any other time she was not available, you were the closest and second best thing. You were even less strict.

7. For "accidentally" forgetting to tell Mom when I stayed up past my bed time when you were babysitting me. I wonder how many times that happened?

8. You helping me to realize what is important and what isn't.

9. For giving me a hug when I need it.

10. You putting up with all of my quirks and diverse interests.

11. Without you two, I would not have these three angels, who call me Aunt Alex.

12. Most importantly, thank you for being the most big-hearted and most hilarious sisters out there, I love you two so much!
