A special sister and best friend.
Time with you, I love to spend.
Always been there, through think and thin.
I know your thoughts, through your grin.
A special sister and a best friend,
my gratitude, I wish to send.
Your kindness keeps me very warm,
great conversations are the norm.
A special sister and a best friend,
Your dreams and thoughts, I shall defend.
We are more than just a team,
I’m your coffee, you’re my crème.
A Little Sister’s Poem
New Experiences
“My mentor helps me experience new things and learn new things as well. I really like having someone who is there for me but not really in my family because we can bond in a different way. Also it gives me time to hang out with someone one on one”.
Breaking out of Shyness
“I want to be as successful as she is. She has really helped me break out of my shyness. I’ve been very grateful to have her in my life. It’s fun how we both have the same music taste! I have never opened up or trusted any one like her”
Brandy
“My mentor is probably the best thing that ever happened to me. She’s someone I can talk to all the time, someone who guides me in the right direction. She helps me with a lot and I think I would seriously be lost without her. Brandy shows me self-confidence and she tells me that even on my worst day I have to keep trying.”
Little Sister Pride
“I had abandonment issues growing up. Having a Big Sister as a constant in my life made me realize that not everyone I loved was going to leave me. I feel like I did a lot of the things growing up that I wouldn’t have been able to do. She taught me to be proud of myself and who I am and where I came from.”
Connection
“It’s nice to connect with other girls. Sometimes I feel weird talking to people and I’ve learned that I’m not alone on that.”
