Fortunately enough I am lucky to not only be blessed with one younger brother, but two younger brothers. Having a younger brother has to be the best thing to happen to me, I got to dress him up when he was younger, make him play dolls with me, and even boss him around just because I'm always going to be older. Now that we are older, I can no longer beat you up because you're taller, and I'm far away at college. But, there are things I want you to always know.

1. You're always going to be little to me.

Yes, people may mistake you for being the older one. But, I don't care how old you get, or how much taller than me you get, you're always going to be my little brother.

2. Always be respectful to any girl you meet.

You have been there for me through every one of my heartbreaks. You have seen how mean guys have been to me, please don't be that one. Because you never know who is going to want to hurt you if you hurt her.

3. Get in with a good group of kids.

You have seen the types of friend groups I have been involved with. I want you to have a good group of kids that are genuinely good people, and who won't force you into anything you don't want to do.

4. I will forever love our drives.

My favorite time of day is when I get to drive you around somewhere because that means I get to watch you dance and sing at the top of your lungs. Thankfully we listening to the same music so it's not a fight over the aux cord.

5. Learn from me getting in trouble with mom and dad.

I am the oldest, which means most of the things you try to pull with mom and dad, they are a step ahead of you. Try not to get in as much trouble as me, which honestly I don't even think is possible.

6. Any chance I get, I'll be cheering you on.

Sports are huge in your life and they always have been. Any chance I get I'm going to be on the sidelines as your biggest fan. Hopefully one day I'll be in the stadium cheering you on as a pro-athlete.

7. I am always going to support you no matter what.

As your older sister that is one of my biggest jobs, supporting you no matter what. Whether it is a huge life decision, or even just what to get for lunch, I will always support you, even when mom and dad don't.

8. Your Snapchats never fail to make me laugh.

Every time I see your name show up on my screen I prepare myself for the laughter I know is going to follow. I don't know why you send the funniest Snapchats, but you do.

9. I'm always going to be protective.

I'm older, which means the girls you date will most likely be younger than me, and anyone who tries to mess with you will be younger than me. I will do anything it takes to make sure you don't get hurt.

10. I'm always just a phone call away.

Just because I am gone most months out of the year now does not mean that I am not here for you. I'm just a call, a text, and even an email away. No matter the time of day, I promise I will always answer.

11. You're always going to be my best friend.

Somewhere growing up together, and I'm not sure when, we came friends. We grew too old for the fighting, and actually started to enjoy each other's company. No matter what, I'm always going to be proud of you and proud to call you my younger brother.
