My Darling Sister, Falecia.

I think this is an appropriate time to make a special shout out to my lovely sister, Falecia Parker. You are truly one of the biggest blessings in my life. I do not know what I would do without you. Seriously. When you move to Nashville, Tennessee, I have no idea how I will cope. I know that when I come home for the weekend or when I have a five week long Christmas break and you aren't home..I might die. 

I truly admire the person you are and who you keep becoming. I love that you let God lead your life. You have turned what you have gone through into a beautiful testimony. I don't think you realize how wise you are and what a light you've been to people around you, whether that's our family, younger girls and guys in our old youth group, jobs, and school. There is something about you that just makes other people feel good about themselves.

You are inspiring. The dreams you have for yourself are amazing. The fact that you are working 62 hour weeks to just afford to move to Nashville in August blows my mind. Your work ethic will pay off. Not many people dare to dream or have goals, and your goals & dreams are out of this world. They are crazy, awesome! I cannot wait to see what God has in store for you. Not many girls at age 19 have the courage to move to a completely new area, by themselves, only knowing one person, and start a new life because that's there calling. I know you will use your AMAZING musical talents to further the kingdom of God.

I love that you can quote movies, crochet, longboard, and that your food choice is primal. I also think it's cute how much you love Maggie (our cat). I love how you can super crazy and wild or super chill. I like having sleepovers with you and I like gossiping about the Bachelor with you. And that is just a very small list of what I love about you and what I love doing with you.

You know me better than I even really know myself, it's like you know my thoughts before I even think them... and that is crazy, because I'm crazy. But I think it's even crazier that I know you better than you know yourself. It's like we are suppose to be twins... I feel like we share a bond like twins.

Basically, I love you SO MUCH. Thank you for all the advice you given me, listening to me, and just dealing with me. I cannot wait to see what the future holds for us and our relationship. As I pick a career choice and you get famous (I will mooch off you... just like I mooch off your plate), as we get married, as we have children, and as we just experience adulthood. It will be hard at times, but it's comforting that I have had the privilege to have you as a sister, but more than that, a best friend.

Love, Reggs.
