To my sweet little,
I cannot believe that it has been a whole year since I got my own big and joined the family. Fast forward, and now I have my own little to love on and welcome home. It is no secret that I have some big shoes to fill in our family, but I hope that I get to be everything to you that my big is to me. She has been there for all of my highs and lows over the past year. She provides guidance, whether it is helping me schedule classes or just keeping me in line. She is one of the few people who gets to see all the aspects of who I am, and she knows me just as well as I know myself.
She knows all of my strengths and weaknesses, and she knows when it's time to sit back and let me rant, or when I need a guiding hand. She is everything I could have ever asked for in a big, and I hope that I am half the big sister to you, that she has been to me. As you and I are just easing into our new big/little roles, here are some things you probably should know about me:
First and foremost, I am a cuddler. I can't help it - snuggles and hugs are my love language. Some of my friends are not the biggest fans of it and some love me for it. Hopefully, you fall into the latter category, but if not, I guess we can work around it. Other things I am a fan of are breakfast food, ocean waters from Sonic, weird vegetables, and crew socks - I am a huge sock person.
Now that I have covered my bases, it is time to talk about you. The biggest thing, is that I want to be kept in the know. I want to know when you are having a bad or great day. If you are angry, I am here to listen to you rant. If you are sad, I will be there to wipe your tears and hug you tight. When you have great news, tell me - I want to celebrate with you.
Speaking of celebrations, I know there will be many occasions to celebrate your victories. You are already an absolute rockstar. Yes, obviously I am biased, but you really are brilliant in every way. You are one of the most intelligent freshmen I know, and I know you are going to do big things on our campus, and within our chapter.
Greater than that though, you have a heart of gold. All who know you, cherish you, and you have an aura of joy that is infectious. You are so genuine, and you embody everything that our sisterhood stands for. You make me so so so proud already, and I cannot wait to watch you grow over these next many years.
You will have your ups and your downs, but I hope you know that you are never alone. You are prayed for, and you are looked after. I want to be able to be here for you whenever you need me; that is what I am here for. I am your newest cheerleader, advocator, and motivator. I am always on your side, and I am here, for not just these next three years, but the long haul. You now have a big, grand big, and great grand big who would do anything for you, and we are here for life.
Over the years, my favorite job ever has been to be a older sister to my biological brother. Now I get to be a big sister to you, and I am still just as excited about it as I was on big/little reveal night. I cannot wait to make tons of memories with you. Here's to all the soccer games, movie nights, Sonic runs, laugh-till-you-cry moments, and everything in between. You are a true gem, and I am beyond lucky to call you my little sister.
I love you loads little one,
xoxo
your big
