For the best sister a guy could ask for

 Well it makes me realize how long you have been a part of my life when we talk about celebrating your 30th birthday.  I met you when you were 17.  I remember the first time you came into the Outback and I was working in the lounge area.  You sat at table 46 with Brian and Andy.

One of the earliest memories I have with you is when we went to Dallas for the Redskins-Dallas game for your 18th Birthday.  I was amazed that your mom even let you come with us.  I guess she must have trusted me even back then with her girls.  Me, you, Danny and Nate packed up in the Grand Am and headed to the game.  That was a pretty awesome road trip.  If you think about it I have been lucky enough to be a part of all the milestone birthday celebrations.  18, 21 and now 30, it just goes to show how time really does fly by.

The years all seem to run together between you going to college us going to Michigan.  Everyone graduating college, then us all moving back to the same area, i think we have taken it for granted that we have always been around each other.  I hope we continue to make funny memories and that the stories continue to pile up.  Who knows what funny stuff we will be able to put in the 40th Birthday book.

The rest is as they say history.  We have been through alot the last 13 years and I am happy that I have been able to be a part of your life, and even happier that you have been a part of my life.  We have a special relationship and even though you are my sister-in-law I have always considered you my real sister.  I have looked out for you, stood up for you and taken care of you when necessary. I hope that you will always consider me as a brother, to lean upon when you need something, to talk to when you need someone to listen, and to laugh with when you need a smile.

Love you always sis,
Rick
