I promise to love and care for you;

to be your biggest fan and greatest confidant.

to hold your hand and wipe your tears.

to be with you when you’re laughing and when you’re crying.

to agree that boys are stupid until you find one who isn’t.

to dance like no one is watching even when everyone is watching.

I promise to eat tacos at 1 a.m.,

and to laugh about it later.

I’ll sing with you in the rain and in the car when we’re stranded because the rain flooded the roads we needed to take home.

I promise to encourage you and support you – in everything.

I promise to watch you shine and succeed,

to watch you grow and flourish,

to watch you accomplish everything you’ve worked so hard to achieve.

You’ll always be my pride and joy,

my hope and serenity,

my saving grace.

You’re the best thing that has happened to me,

and you walked into my life at the perfect time.

You are everything I strive to be and I will always look up to you.

I admire you for being you;

for being bold,

courageous,

and accepting.

I promise to always be there for you regardless of the time of day or the circumstances.

I promise to be there when you walk down the aisle,

and to hold your hand when you go into labor.

You’re my sister,

My best friend,

My person,

My little, and the love I have for your beautiful soul is never ending.
