An Open Letter To My Little Brother

Dear lil bro,

There is a lot I have to tell you and I thought the best way for me to fully express the emotions I have would be with words:

I love you, bub. You are the best brother a girl could ever ask for. There are so many reasons why, like how you always have my back, how you can make me laugh and how you can cheer me up after some idiot has broken my heart again.

To start off, I want to thank you for having my back. For standing up for me when no one else would. For being overprotective and guarding me from the bullies. I can't thank you enough for the times you consoled me when I was sobbing after people had posted horrible stuff about me all over social media; how you would surprise me with Reese’s cups just out of the blue because you knew it would make me happy. Or the time we were at Target, and I was having a bad day, and you said you bought some espresso from Starbucks when I asked what you were doing, but you had actually bought me my favorite drink. You are so thoughtful and kind, and I am lucky that I get to watch you continuously grow into the young man you are becoming.

I love how there were so many things that only you and I would have fun doing. Like playing Wizards 101 for 6 hours and arguing over who had the best character (sorry for sharing this with the world, it is just a great representation of why I love you). And how you pretended to be a student while I was practicing my teaching skills when we younger; lord knows how fun it was to have me teach you math incorrectly. I am just really appreciative of all the memories we share, no matter how strange they may seem to other people. I am just happy I got to share them with you.

I even love how overprotective you are. I know that you always have my best interest at heart and that you have always been looking out for me when I couldn’t seem to realize that I was talking to another loser. You would stand up for me when anyone ever disrespected me and that is something I will always cherish.

There are obviously some times that have been not so great. Honestly, you really gross me out nine times out of 10. But on a positive note, growing up with your gross habits helped prepare me for what future boyfriends would do. If I could grow up with you then I could make it through any unpleasant moment with any other guy.

But the flaws that you have are far surpassed by your amazing qualities. You are so caring and genuine to everyone you meet; it is truly inspiring to watch how kind you are. You know how to respect women and I am proud that I can say that about you in this generation. I can’t wait until I get to be the over protective sister when you start dating because I don’t want watch you ever get hurt. I love you more than words describe and I am so blessed that I got you as a brother. I am so grateful for you and I just hope you know that.

Love,

Your favorite sister

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

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.

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.
