Aubrey Lyn

My sweet little sister Aubrey graduated high school on Thursday. I cannot believe she is all grown up.


One of the best parts about having a sister is that you always have a companion, a playmate to go through life with. Aubrey made my childhood experience. She is so much more DRAMATIC than me. In a beautiful way. She lives so vivaciously. I hated the dramatics when she would make herself cry and get herself out of trouble. But then when we were playing pretend, she could weep when I was her mother who became deathly ill on my boat-ride over to America. This made the direness of our game so much more realistic.





Aubrey is sassy. She always says what she thinks. That is something I admire so much because I am always too shy to share what I really think. She is so strong. I love that about her. Her strength has made her a successful leader around school, at church, and in our community.



 Aubrey loves people. She is especially fond of children and quick to befriend them.



Aubrey is artistic. She has recently dabbled in drawing, and her work is lovely. A lovely reflection of herself. She is musical. We harmonize to Ingrid Michaelson at the top our lungs. We are always sharing songs with each other. We have an ongoing dialogue about artists we love. Aubrey is witty. This is reflected in her prose and paper-writing. We always banter and make jokes. We think we are so clever, and we are.



Aubrey is my best friend. I will miss her so much when so moves to Logan next year. Congratulations on graduation my dear, sweet sissy! I love you!
