Tyler,

We may not be related by blood but I've known you since you were four years old. I know you don't really remember a time when I was not around.

I am always filled with such joy when you call me your big sister rather than your step-sister. I'm proud to be your sister. I'm glad you've accepted me into your family like you have. That's the biggest gift you could ever give me.

I've watched you grow up. I can feel it too because you're currently sitting on my shins while I write this and you are heavy! You are such an amazing kid. You have no idea. You're smart, you know right from wrong and you have a huge heart. I smile at how you make a point of telling our parents to drive safely before they go to work.

Your birthday is coming up soon. You're going to be twelve. You'd never think it- you're so silly, frantically waving at me from across the couch. I'm sad you're off to your dad's for the night. I miss you when you aren't here.

I love you, kiddo. You are the little sibling I always wanted growing up. You are a blessing. Don't ever think otherwise.

Jo.

That's beautiful, Jo. I'm glad your connection with him is so deep. He seems like a wonderful little brother to have. Also, blood doesn't count. It's the connection that matters.

I'm going to give him a copy of this when he's older and can really understand why he means so much to me. I think he'd get it... but not completely.

That was a very nice message to your brother. I can see that you love him very much.

Yeah. Sometimes they can be so mature, and it others not so much. Then again, it's what makes them, them. I'm sorry he has to go. When do you see him next?

Mark, I will hopefully see him when he comes home from school in a couple days. I'm still off from exams but his dad, who lives quite a drive away, is not great at being on time so my brother is usually here for a bit.

Nick, aww. :)
