Thank you for always protecting me
You are there when I need you the most. You help me by telling me when I walk funny. You protect me when driving, and how you put your hand in front of my chest telling me “This is my motherly instinct kicking in” even though you do not have any kids. Thank you for teaching me how to use a hair straighter, you protected me from burns that would have happened. Thank you for protecting me, in the past, the present and in years to come!
Thank you for teaching me how to wear makeup
To this day, I do not know where I would be without our countless hours of makeup lessons. I want to thank you big time, both for you doing my makeup when I was younger, and for teaching me. I know it took me awhile to learn how to do makeup, yes 16 years is correct. I was just always nervous that I would mess something up; however, after countless fails and tries, smudges and touch-ups, I felt that I was starting to feel more confident in myself about my makeup skills. You made me believe that I could do my own makeup, and that I did not need to rely on you anymore for makeup help.
Thank you for teaching me to appreciate who I am
My whole life I have hated who I am. I have hated this, or hated that about myself, but as I have gotten older in life I have learned that the whole time in life, you are right. Thank you so much my sisters for teaching me that even though I am tall I am still considered beautiful. Even though I have epilepsy that is what makes me special. Even though I learn differently, I am like a rare little piece of a puzzle, I am different and that is good. No one is the same, and being the same is boring. Thank you for teaching me to appreciate life, and except who I am!
Thank you for teaching me how to become relaxed
Over the years I have begun to get stressed; however, somehow you figured out a way to help me get relaxed. One way I would learn to become relaxed is we would watch Reign together and I would just become a totally different person. Maybe it was because of the different time period, or maybe it was all of us wanted to be Queen Mary a.k.a Adelaide Kane for she is so pretty. Other times we would listen to Jessie James Decker’s songs and you know that when you hear her voice it just soothes you; thus, when I listened to Jessie I became relaxed as well for her voice is like an angel. Other times we would decide to play with our dog Bailey. We would lay on the ground hopping he would come into our laps, and give us smooches, and when Bailey came into our lap we would just smoother him in hugs and kisses. Thank you for teaching me how to cope with my stress and teach me strategies that I was able to take with me to college.
Lastly, thank you for just being my friend :)
You allow me to laugh with you, sing Thomas Rhett and Luke Bryan with you in the car at the top of our lungs, go to Starbucks and get holiday drinks on the first day they come out, and lay in each other’s beds at noon laughing about how tired we are. You are more than a sister to me at times, you help me pick out clothes to wear, we take Snapchat selfies together, watch The Bachelor(ette) and early on think about who is going to win, go eat Dairy Queen together and only get it in the drive through because you are too lazy to get out of the car. Our sister, friend sort of bond is unbreakable, and I love you both to the moon, stars and back and feel very lucky to have you both as not only my sisters but my best friends.
