I can’t even begin to explain how much you mean to me. You’ve been my bestie since diapers, my personal therapist, and my own makeshift superhero boyfriend when I need rescuing. Let’s not forget the high school years.

For that, I promise…

I’ll pick up the phone at 2AM or 2PM, when you call me bringing good news, bad news, or anything in between; I’ll always listen. I’ll book a flight faster than the speed of light if I have to.

To always be by your side. I will laugh and celebrate your victories with you, and I will also cry for your losses with you.

I will be there for you to remind you of who you are, and if need be, to pick you back up. I’ll never stand by and watch you fall, I’ll always be the one waiting to catch you.

I will be your biggest supporter, regardless of whether I’m in the room next to you, or a thousand miles away.

And I will always believe in you. In your goals, in your dreams, in your vision. Always know that you can handle what life throws at you, and much more, I know it.

I will never be anything but honest with you, even if it hurts. Not because I want to hurt you, but because I only want the best for you.

To make time for you even in the busiest of months. Even as we get older and our lives get more hectic, I promise if you need me, I’ll be there. Always.

Just know, I’ll always be there, period. Maybe not literally, but no matter where I am, no matter where you are, I will never be more than a phone call away.

I’d give anything to sit with you over good food and drinks and reminisce on all the good times we’ve had as we grow older. Funny how life brings us closer together as we grow.

But above all, I promise to always love you, completely and unconditionally. There’s not a thing you could confess that would make me love you less.

Because I know you’d do anything for me in a heartbeat because I know you’re my biggest supporter, my sister, my best friend.

I will always leave my door open, too.

I love you, Em.
