My Other Best Frister!

I know, I know... Another one?

As a matter of fact, yes!

This day, 15 years ago, my sweet younger sister Aubree was born!

And I will be celebrating with cookies and ice cream even though I am in Utah!

I'm guessing this is her 10th birthday because there are 10 candles!

The awesome cake we made... it's a rainbow inside!

This pretty much describes our relationship...

This is me Aunt Aubree and baby Kacie is hiding in my stomach!

Dear Aubree,

Now I know I just posted about Angela and that I called her my 'best frister.' You may or may not have thought to yourself 'What about me??' But I don't want you to think that at all! You are just as much my 'Best Frister' as she is... it's just in a different way!

I don't really remember much about you being born except that we got to leave school early to meet you! So thanks for that!

But as years have come and gone, you have become an amazing young woman! You are always so sweet and caring. You have always been one in our family to simply want everyone to be happy. You are always making sure to give hugs when life is bad, good or just, well, life! Your hugs are so wonderful and comforting and a great reminder of your love for me.

I miss living so close because I love to hang out with you. It was so wonderful to always have you around to take out. We so enjoyed going on a drive to the store (probably Wal-Mart) and telling stories (mostly you did the talking) and listening to music (definitely Hannah Montana).

And for me to be able to take you and Jordan places was awesome. It made me feel like the 'cool older sister' and I love that! I am so proud to have you as a sister and even though you are not older than me, I can still look up to you. Actually, you are probably going to be taller than me soon anyway!

I look to you as a beacon of hope and joy. I see you as a person who enjoys life and wants everyone else to enjoy it as well. That spirit in you is contagious and I strive to have that as well.

I know you had a wonderful birthday weekend (because how could you not have enjoyed a One Direction concert) (side note: I probably wouldn't have enjoyed a One Direction concert...) But I wish I could have been with you to celebrate this day.

Even though it took you 15 years to learn how to make orang juice, I am so proud to call you my sister! 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR!

Love,

Kayla
