For the one who held me tight
And told me my freckles were angel kisses

For the one who said she'd always be there
And that she'd never tell my fears

For the one who cried with me
And understood what I was missing

For the one who sets aside time to share
And thinks of me more like a sister

For the one who's always wondering
And keeping me in thoughts and prayers

For the one who gives the quiet, sincere hugs
And doesn't let distance separate our bond

For the one who makes laughing inevitable
And knows it's because I really need it

For the one who helps me keep perspective
And reminds me of how strong I can be

For all of my aunts who have stepped in
And grandmas who have always loved me

Thank you.
