Dear Big Sister,

Although I may not say it enough, I am grateful for you. My whole life you have been my best friend, my teacher, my opponent, but most importantly, my big sister. You have showed me how to accept myself and pursue my dreams, and for that I owe you the world.

At such a young age you taught me what family really was, you showed me that no matter what, family is still there. I remember growing up I would only get on my bike if you were out there with me. You have positive vibes associated with you that make your presence even that much more desired.

You were so loving and compassionate that it inspired me. My whole life I was inspired to be like you, when I watched you stay up late every night studying for what seemed the biggest exams of your life, it inspired me to stay focused at all time. You would still make time for family even with your busy schedule.

You showed me the true definition on being a student athlete. I watched you play your heart out no matter the circumstances. We all tried to comfort you in defeat, and celebrate with you in victory.

Sincerely,

Your (not so) Little Brother
