I value almost everyone I encounter in life, for many different reasons. Other than my mother, one person I greatly value would be my older sister, Mia. She has taught me so much, both intentionally and unintentionally.
To begin, Mia is a loving, hilarious, hard working, intelligent, and annoying person. As we were growing up, I looked up to her tremendously. She was always gorgeous, smart, brave, and loved by those who genuinely knew her. She is also athletic, daring, social, ambitious, caring, and exceeds academically. Everyone that has been graced by Mia's presence knows she has absolutely no problem confronting others. As a result, I still look up to her today.
In addition to what was previously stated, Mia has shown how confident, determined, and brave she is by graduating from high school, with no interruption, regardless of her unplanned pregnancy at the age of 17. She did not let the birth of my beautiful niece effect her negatively. Instead, she has become a loving, fun, and protective mother. Recently, Mia has graduated from Bowling Green State University with her Bachelor's degree at the age of 21, making her one of the first to do so in our family. She has now been accepted into a program that will lead her to achieving her goal of becoming a midwife.
Throughout the years, Mia has been one of the best older siblings anyone could ask for. I am so privileged to have her as not only my older sister, but my confidant, walking diary, personal tutor, protector, entertainer, chauffeur, and most importantly - my best friend. I can only hope that I can be as great of an older sister and role model for our younger sisters.
Nya,
ReplyDeleteI can only imagine that Mia would be honored to know that she was a blog post dedicated to her. Keep up the good work!
