First of all, congratulations on not being scared off by our family. That is not an easy task as we are a crazy (and very overprotective) bunch.
You stuck through all the crazy we threw at you in our attempts to make sure you are good enough for her because she deserves the world and more. You made it through countless Sunday night dinners and football games, family Christmas events with the extended family, vacations with us all, etc. I’m proud of you.
You have also been through it all with my sister. You not only tolerate her quirks, but you love them. You don’t care that she will eat all the food on her plate and possibly yours. You don’t mind that she is as stubborn as a bull and is not afraid to speak her mind. You accept that she can cry if she gets the slightest bit upset. These are things that will frustrate me, but I love her anyway because she is my sister. You don’t have that obligation, but you stuck it through anyway and put a ring on it.
And thank god you did because she is worth it. She may be crazy and she may be stubborn, but she is one of the most amazing people you will ever meet. She can make you laugh with the stupid things she says. She will amaze you with the amount of passion she has for the things she loves. She has a lot of love in her heart which she doesn’t give out easily, so you are lucky. She keeps herself guarded, but you brought down those walls and she trusts you.
That being said, if you hurt her you have an army against you. She is loved by so many, so just don’t do anything stupid. Don’t screw up your chance with this amazing woman who I am blessed to call my sister.
She is everything to me and she should be everything to you too.
Thank you for loving her as much as you do and continue treating her well. We are so happy to welcome you to our crazy family.
