To my siblings..

Being the youngest, I've watched you all grow into who you are today. You've graduated, formed relationships, careers, and moved out of the house one-by-one. And while you've all begun your lives elsewhere, I've been here at home, waiting to start mine, missing you guys being home. But I know that you'll be here when I go through the same milestones that you have already accomplished.

You've already been there for me when I needed you most. When I cried because a stupid boy broke my heart in high school, you were there to catch my tears and tell me I'll find someone better. Whenever I needed a pick-me-up, you were there with an invite for me to join you and your friends in whatever you were up to.

As we got older, you started coming to me too when you needed a shoulder to cry on or something fun to do. I guess you didn't have a choice since our older siblings were gone and I was all that was left.

Regardless, I was still excited you picked me. But the older I got, the more we could relate to each other. You took me shopping when you needed help picking out new clothes and you vented to me when you needed someone to listen. We've become closer than ever.

Even though you're all off living your lives now, you have each left a lasting impact on me. Each one of you has shaped who I am. I idolized you growing up. I wanted your humor, your style, your kindness.

You were my biggest role models. I don't know how I got so lucky to have the best siblings somebody could ask for.

But above all else, I want you to know that I am so so so proud of you. You went from being my annoying older siblings who picked on me every day, to my best friends who I miss living with.

So as I write this with sobbing eyes, I hope you keep this as a reminder that I love you and I will always be in your corner rooting for you. Thank you for everything.

Love,

Your little sister
