On Wednesday, my beautiful sister, Breanna, turned 24! I immediately loved her the day she was born and through the years my love for her continued to grow. So today, I’m dedicating my Fresh Brewed Friday to her with a letter I wrote.
My dearest Bre,
Thank you for being the best sister a girl could ask for. I don’t know what I would do if you weren’t in my life. I’m so happy that I had an awesome younger sister to grow up with. Everywhere we went, we were called “The Girls” and though we didn’t like it at the time, I love it now. You were the first best friend I ever knew. Thanks for always acting out Disney movies with me in our backyard and singing songs with me on the back steps. Thanks for climbing trees and acting silly to make me laugh. Thanks for having the best attitude when I thought knew better because I was the “big sister.”
Throughout the years, you were always by my side. Through thick and thin, you were there. From breakups, to new relationships, new jobs, and new opportunities you supported me along the way. When I left for college, you wrote me letters and sent me funny cards to help me stay focused. When I returned home from school with no direction of what to do next, you believed in me. When I started my own business you cheered me on and let me practice my photography skills on you. You always told me I was talented and helped me see it in myself. I’m so grateful for all you’ve done for me and every day it is my hope that I can bring joy and laughter to your life too!
Now you are 24! It’s almost hard to believe. It feels like only yesterday we were back at Webster Elementary, waiting to play map tag or roll down the big hill. You have grown into such a beautiful, smart, hilarious, talented young woman and I could not be more proud of you! You have accomplished so much in your life already and I just know this is the year that you will go even further. I believe in you and your dreams and I know you will do great things this year and every year! I cannot wait to see what this next chapter in your life will bring but I can guarantee that I will be with you every step of the way on this crazy, awesome journey.
Love you lots sista!
