This week I struggled to write an article, although sometimes it just happens.

Pulling Strings, Lionsgate 2013.

However, I believe that this special article would be nice. I tend to be better at typing words out rather than saying them. I know that we have various times to talk but I know you always feel special with even the smallest of gestures. Well, here goes.

Almost twelve years ago, you came into my life and stole my heart. There is not a day that I don't think of you or worry about you. I promise all I say is out of love and wanting to be the best for you. I know I don't always show it, but your silly antics always make my day.

I will forever cherish our Blockbuster night in which we played video games and stayed up late. I know you do but thinking about it now, I wish we had even more nights than those. I promise you that my refusal to play video games is not from not wanting to spend time with you but rather my own lack of coordination with controllers.

I wish I could be there for every small moment going on in your life right this second, but you know your big sister likes to hustle to be able to buy her Starbucks. I want to hustle and get a degree so that I can inspire you to do that as well. I want you to be whatever you want to be and be super successful. I never want to see you suffer and believe me, when you cry, I want to cry. Maybe that's because I'm just a sensitive sister but that's okay.

I probably do not say this enough, but I believe in you. I have shown people your Youtube videos. I am so jealous that you can draw amazing comics while I can only draw stick figures. If we could play Legos all over again, I would do it in a heartbeat. I want to always be your best friend and your role model. Someone you can trust with anything and can turn to when things aren't great.

I want you to know that I will always be your ride-or-die. I love you and hope you keep being the sweet and caring little brother that I hold dear to my heart. I don't want you to be like the other boys having a million girlfriends or hurt people's feelings. Just be you Jr. I love you even when you always want the same chicken teriyaki from the mall after church. I love you even when you drive me nuts with your video games.

I wouldn't want you as a brother any other way. Sending a bunch of love from Boston, your big sister.
