Dear Big,
I just wanted to take a second and both brag on you and also say thank you. Coming into college and joining a sorority can be very overwhelming, and you made it so much easier for me to feel like I had a piece of family here. I am just so proud to have someone like you as my big. A big is supposed to be someone that you look up to, and I admire the person you are so much. You are so selfless and caring with the perfect touch of sass. You do so much for people without expecting anything back, and your humility makes me want to have more of a servant's heart. What makes you so special is that you do all of this for people even when you are going through your own struggles. Last year you faced probably one of the hardest years you’ll ever experience, and even then, you put others before yourself. I knew the day we met that you were meant to be my big. You were so sweet and I felt like I was already a part of the family. I could tell that you were a genuine person that I wanted to have as my example to follow. Seeing you pop out of that big blue box and getting to run to you at reveal was one of the best days of college so far because I honestly felt like I got the perfect Big for me. I know that God knew exactly what he was doing when he placed me in Alpha Chi and led me to you and G. I love that you are always there encouraging me in everything I do, and pushing me to be the best version of myself. You have always made me feel like I can do anything, and you don’t even know how much I needed that sometimes. Thank you for putting up with my need to take a billion pictures!! (You will appreciate it when we’re older) Thank you for letting me drag you to sonic all the time with me. Thank you for pointing me to Jesus when it gets hard. This year without you in the sorority house is so different, and it has made me realize how much I love you. I am really happy that I have a big that makes weird faces at me and white girl dances with me. I am really happy that I have a big that feels out of place at parties with me. I am really happy that you are the person that I get to call my Big for all the years to come, and definitely, have by my side when I get married one day. The only reason I am prepared to be a big is because I have learned from the best. I hope I can be half the big you are. I can’t wait for so many more years of memories with our cute little family. I know I will continue to learn so much from you and I can’t wait to see what is to come. I love you so much Big. Thank you for being one of the biggest blessings I could have ever been given.
Love,
Little
P.S. NOODLES!
