Take One

So I figured I can't just sit here and do nothing, SO I should sit here and do something. I thought about doing this before, and now I think it is necessary. I think maybe it is necessary for you to know just how much you are loved and the reasons why. I also think that maybe I can provide you with some lessons I learned, that may eventually help you love yourself a little more.

But at first attempt, here are some reasons why I love you:
10. You are my twin, we shared 9 months (well, 10 actually, shotty little lie of life) in a womb together, I've known you longer than anyone.

9. Your uncontrollable laughter, which you and mom share...even though sometime it's embarrassing it is infectious and a great quality to have.

8. On that note, it is a great quality to have to not care TOO much what other people think about you, that is rare, hold on to that.

7. The dedication and determination you put into the gym and losing weight is something I will always admire, that takes guts and drive and good for you for having all of that.

6. You have a lot of interests and passions, I don't know too many people that will watch a show about midgets, Ellen, Oprah and the discovery channel

5. How much you love your job and working with kids and the sincere patience you have for them.

4. The fact that we spent several summers together at the place that has definitely shaped who I am, and that you know all the intricacies of my life there!

3. That when our family gets together, all 5 of us, we know how to do it right! It's a good mix, know that, appreciate that, and love that :)

2. That you are pretty true to yourself. It's hard to do exactly what you want and make it work, and you can manage that.

1. You are You. Just remember, everyone is Unique :) We are all here for a reason and we have the ability to create our own stories.

BE YOU, LOVE YOU, LIVE YOU!
