Birthday letter for your sister

Dear little sister,

Happy birthday! I still can't quite believe you are old enough to have a birthday that isn't a party with a bouncy castle and a cake shaped like a dinosaur. In my head you are still the tiny kid in rain boots, following me around the garden and asking why about absolutely everything.

Somewhere along the way, you grew into someone remarkable. You are braver than I was at your age, kinder than you need to be and funnier than you get credit for. I have watched you handle disappointments with grace and celebrate other people's wins as if they were your own. That says everything about your heart.

I know I was not always the most patient big sibling. I slammed doors, hid your toys and told you the basement was haunted. I am sorry about the basement. But I hope you also remember that I was always on your side, and I still am. Whatever you need, wherever you are, call me.

The letter

Dear little sister,
Happy birthday! I still can't quite believe you are old enough to have a birthday that isn't a party with a bouncy castle and a cake shaped like a dinosaur. In my head you are still the tiny kid in rain boots, following me around the garden and asking why about absolutely everything.
Somewhere along the way, you grew into someone remarkable. You are braver than I was at your age, kinder than you need to be and funnier than you get credit for. I have watched you handle disappointments with grace and celebrate other people's wins as if they were your own. That says everything about your heart.
I know I was not always the most patient big sibling. I slammed doors, hid your toys and told you the basement was haunted. I am sorry about the basement. But I hope you also remember that I was always on your side, and I still am. Whatever you need, wherever you are, call me.
Have the most wonderful day. I hope it is full of people who see how special you are.
Love you always,

Make it personal

1
Start from a shared memory. The blanket forts, the stolen sweater, the road trip singalongs. One detail makes it yours.
2
Tease, then say the soft part. A sibling joke lands best when it ends with what you really mean.
3
Go long when it counts. For a milestone birthday or a sister far away, a letter says what a text cannot.
