Dear Future Big,

I am SO excited to know who you are! I have been looking forward to Big/Little Reveal since Bid Day. I cannot wait for the day to come where I come running down the stairs to find you in a matching shirt. I’m ready to go on amazing adventures and make lots of great memories with you.

That being said, there’s a couple things you should know.

I’m going to ask for your help while I am studying every bit of information about our founders and what our sisterhood stands for. I hope you’re there with flashcards to test me and tell me that I’ll pass with flying colors.

I hope you hold me to the highest standard that our sisterhood represents. You will be my example and my teacher as I figure out everything about our chapter. You will be the sister I look up to.

I will talk about my home and family a lot, but I want you to be my home away from home, and the sister that’s also my best friend. I want you to have my back through everything. This might mean laughing together it might mean crying together. Either way, I want you to be there for me.

I want to share the best and worst things about my week with you. I want you to be there when dates go wrong and after roommate disagreements. I want you to be there when I ace the exam I’ve studied hours for, and when dates go right. I might ask you to go to the library with me, or even to take me grocery shopping.

I want you to be proud of me and the person I am becoming. I want you to be proud to call me your little.

These are things I want, but here is what I will give.

I promise to be the best little you could ever ask for. I promise to be your friend when you need me. When you get homesick, I will be there as your stand-in family. I will cover the Chugz tab, bake cookies for you, and do whatever I can to be there for you.

I promise to help you study on your midterms and finals, or even just keep you company at the library when you need it. I will help you even when you don’t ask for it simply because I know you need it.

I promise to come to the house just to talk. I want to hear everything about your day. I promise to work my hardest to make this the best Big/Little relationship out there. I will go on crazy adventures with you, late night rides, and step out of my comfort zone to make lasting memories with you.

I promise to thank you for everything you will do for me. I will never take having a great Big for granted. I promise to remember not only the big things of reveal week, but all the little things after that. I promise to always hug you when I see you, and call you when I miss you.

I promise to make you proud to call me your little.

Love,

Future Little
