Oh, my dearest darling cousin. I love you more than words can describe. We weren't always this close, but I am happy that we are now. You have grown into such a beautiful lady and I am so proud that I get get to call you my cousin. So, my darling cousin, this one's for you.
Dear darling,
First, you are one of the greatest girls I know. Your smile lights up a room, you are beyond funny, your laugh is contagious, and most of all, you are gorgeous. I know that sometimes it can be hard to realize these things, but it is all the truth and nothing but the truth. Remain positive, and don't ever forget how truly amazing you are.
Second, there is a guy out there for you. All the things that I just listed about you are what will make the guys fall head over heels for you. Key word here is "guys." They will all come when you least expect it. You will break some hearts and your heart will get broken, but it will all be worth it when your prince shows up at your door. Be patient because hon, he's out there.
Third, you have so much to offer to the world, and I want you to know that. So don't ever let your head fall, because you have so much greatness to offer in so many ways, and please don't ever forget it. Chase your dreams, don't hesitate, and whatever you do, don't look back. But never forget where you came from and those who love you.
Finally, just know that no matter what, I am here for you. You are surrounded by those who love you and I am one of them. Don't ever think that you are in this alone, because you are not! And you will never be. No matter how cruel or scary the world gets, just know that I will always be with you. I love you, my darling cousin, and please don't forget it. One day, you will do great things and you will always be remembered.
