Today, my sister Jill, takes the final steps towards the beginning of a new chapter in her life. She is writing her boards and then she will be a Doctor! Four years has gone by in no time at all and it feels like just yesterday we were having a family hug sending her off to Waterloo.

From the time we were little, I have always looked up to her. Even though I was her annoying little sister, she was always willing to teach me the ropes and let me tag along. We were always a good team, whether it was as B-bop and Rocksteady taking on Jonny, or as ourselves taking on the world. Even more today than back then, do I look up to her. She is a strong, driven, determined and amazing person. She has taught me so much over the years and for that I am so thankful! She has a heart and a passion for what she does and for helping and changing peoples lives and she has already changed hundreds because of it and will continue to do so. She has accomplished so much and will continue to accomplish what she sets her heart to. She is someone that will truthfully change the world and I can't wait to do it with her! I am stoked of the things she has done but am really excited of the places that she will go and the things she will do. I am so proud of her!
Here's to you big sister! You have worked so hard and deserve the best! Good luck and Congratulations! xo
