Lea

7 years without feels like an eternity, yet it still feels like it just happened. I miss and love you so much.

My beautiful sissy 💖

5 years later and I still can’t believe you are gone… I miss everything about you. Your caring nature, being a silly butt with you, your grumpy little faces, the list can go on and on. Since you left us life has changed a lot. I can’t help but think about all the things we will never do together. You’ll always be my big sister, guiding me with grace and kindness. I like to remember our silly moments, especially today. Where ever you are I hope you jack some buns for me. I love you big sister. You are so so so missed.
