Dear Aunt Cindy,

Growing up you were always so interested in us. You gave us your time and attention. You made us feel special. You gave us a taste of possibilities that we may never have known otherwise. Experiences of a lifetime and family traditions that have forever joined us all together in memories.

Watching you live your life has allowed me to self reflect and accept or challenge my own life. Seeing your struggles makes you human in my eyes, which is such a good thing. It helps me know that even through my own issues I can rise up and be a better me. Seeing your successes and accomplishments pushes me to higher heights. You challenge me to be a more successful, educated, spiritual, happy, kind, giving, loving, and unlimited person.

The future is so bright and the past is full of beautiful memories. I’m so blessed to have you in my life. Thank you for all that you’ve done, all that you’re doing, and all that you hope to accomplish. And thank you for believing in me. I love you auntie!
