Dear soon-to-be "Little,"
After months of planning gifts and getting to know you, I am so happy to say that you'll officially be mine soon! I have spent hours planning the perfect little basket that is tailored just for you. I feel like I am dying of anticipation for the reveal. Needless to say, I am very excited about you!
But I do have a confession to make to you — to be completely honest, I was not sure if I was going to be excited about becoming a “Big" to someone. I really enjoy being a “Little” and the relationship that has grown and blossomed between my “Big” and me. I didn’t know if I would be ready to give up my status as a "Little" myself and if I would be ready to have my own. But like a good "Big" sister, over the summer I did start preparing for the day when I would have a "Little" of my own. By the time recruitment came around this fall, I was excited and nervous about which one of these future girls might be the one who would become my “Little.”
Now with "Big-Little" reveals just around the corner, I am finding it hard to contain my excitement over the fact that you and I will be building our very own relationship. Right from the beginning I felt an immediate kindred spirit with you when we met, and I had hoped from early on that you might be the girl to become my “Little.” We have gotten to know each other so well, and I wouldn't trade our heart-to-hearts for anything else. I also hope that you will be just as excited about me as your soon-to-be “Big."
The past few weeks have been hectic. I have been preparing for your arrival by crafting and getting all of your favorite things. I have scrutinized every t-shirt, canvas, lettered bag, and item that I have collected to make sure that it will be perfect for you. I have spent hours just thinking about what hints I will give to you about who I am, and what special little gifts you might enjoy. With every craft and every purchase, I become even more excited about the reveal.
As excited as I am about the reveal and the anxiousness I feel about what your reaction will be to me as your “Big” and all of the gifts that await you, I am even more excited and anxious about what lies ahead of us. I cannot wait for us to grow in our friendship. I promise you I will do my very best to be a good “Big” to you and be there as a sister, friend, cheerleader, shoulder to cry on, ear to vent to — whatever you need. I hope that I can become a good example of what a “Big” should be and that you will be just as excited when you become a “Big.”
The count down has begun to “Big-Little Reveals,” so hang on “Little,” because as much fun as you have had going through the last couple months — the best is yet to come!
Welcome to Our Family!
Love, Your “Big”
