Eva
Dear Eva,
You make really strange noises when you  sleep.
I'm sorry I pick on you so much...
I don't know how to properly get out my anger
I usually do it by picking on you and/or punching my ex-boyfriend.
You are one of the most gorgeous people I have ever seen.
It makes me really jealous and angry
One of the reasons I pick on you.
You enjoy school quite a bit
You're really good at it too.
You're only 10 but I am now sure from what you were telling me today
about the five page play you are writing
that you have achieved the point in your life at which
you are pretty much the smartest person here...
in this waiting room.
Eva,
You sing a lot...
And you run around the house twirling
like butterflies used to do before they turned plastic.
You make me smile and laugh
You remind me what its like not to think about
how many minutes are left until I get to leave.
You talk to animals like they are babies
You draw pictures of flowers and little
cottages nestled in the woods
where they should be.
You still think boys are gross...
I envy that trait.
You don't over-think ****.
So innocent, so straight to the point.
You are an annoying little *****.
But I love you.
And I hope you know that.
You are my sister
I will always be here
for you.
