Dear Younger Sibling

Introductions

Morgan:

uh, okay kiddos. have a seat and get situated, here have a cookie. *cookie* i'm morgan but you guys can call me morg if you want. i'm pretty boring, i'm telling you now. but me and nicole are gonna tell you some things that are gonna help you in this big scary thing we call life.

Alright so I guess I'll start off with my three rules of life?? Or some guidelines?? Call these what you want but these are something I really think you should listen to.

1. Don't swear. You start swearing, then you start down a long road of profanity and bad things and I would never want that for you. (trust me, i swear a lot and get in a lot of trouble)

2. Be social. Just find a friend, a good friend that makes you laugh and treats you well. I promise you are still cool and having only one friend doesn't make you a loser, neither does having a lot of friends.

3. Stay in school. Go to church. Be respectful. Be what god would want you to be.

I guess I'll stop here for the moment, here talk to Nicole.

*nervously looks at nicole.*

Nicole:

Uh, hey guys, my names Nicole, but you guys can call me Nicky. I'm not very good at this type of stuff but I'll try not to bore you guys to death. I hope that whatever crazy, random, stuff that Morgan and I end up writing in here will help you out in this crazy roller coaster of life. Since Morgan listed her top three rules of life, I guess I should list mine.

1. Listen to music. I personally love music, it always puts a smile on my face. Find what music you like, weather it be rock, pop, punk, heavy metal, or maybe even kidzbop. If it makes you happy, then go with it.

2. don't drink coffee, it's addicting. Especially Starbucks and dunkin donuts. Trust me you think to yourself, hey maybe I'll try a gingerbread latte, And that's how it starts, then the next day you think, man that drink was good I'm going to get another one today. Don't do it, you will regret it, I speak from experience. (But if you are going to drink coffee try iced coffee.)

3. And my last main rule, or tips, or guideline, whatever the heck Morgan called them. Have fun and be yourself.

Hang out with friends, go on a shopping trip, have a sleepover, read books, watch Netflix, eat chocolate (unless your allergic in which case please don't eat chocolate.) be who you are. Don't let anyone stop you from doing your thing. Be confident in who you are, And don't stress over the little things.

*casually looks at Morgan*

Morgan:

*shouts incoherently at nicole* well i guess i'm supposed to talk more. so let's just review so far; don't cuss, make a friend, be a good person, listen to music, drink iced coffee, and be yourself. Pretty good summary of our lives, Nicole. Now let's go over sports and when I'm done boring you to death maybe Nicky will tell you about clothes.

Alright, if you wanna play a sport you're gonna need to figure out what your calling is. Don't believe what people tell you, that you have to be 'naturally talented' to play a sport. Play a sport that makes you feel like you belong, it should make you feel comfortable. It'll make you wanna break records and push yourself to be the best you can be. Now I'm a strong believer that cheer-leading is not a sport, but I also believe that Marching Band is a sport so you probably shouldn't listen to me. Just- if it makes you happy, go for it.

This also applies to many things in life kiddos. In fact I'm making a rule #4,

If it makes you happy, go for it. Now you guys should talk to Nicole about clothes, because otherwise you'll end up like me and dress in hockey jerseys and sweatpants all the time.

*smacks nicole*

*smacks Morgan back*

Nicole:

I guess by her smacking me its my turn to talk again. Apparently I'm supposed to talk about clothes. According to Morgan I have the fashion sense of Emma Watson, but according to my closet I have the fashion sense of a soccer player with a twist of hipster.

I guess just wear what makes you feel confident. If you feel confident in Adidas track pants and a baggy sweatshirt, I say go for it. And if you feel confident in a sun dress with nice sandals, I say go for it. Just don't buy something because your friends are wearing it, only buy what you actually like, and feel confident and comfortable wearing.

The last tip I have for clothing is please make sure that you are decently modest. I'm not asking you to dress like you're going to a funeral everyday, I'm just asking for you to dress so if your grandmother was going to see you she wouldn't shield her eyes and start praying for you. But if you've seen your grandmother wore it, you probably shouldn't.

Um, I'm out of clothing tips, so let's go back to Morgan.

*smirks at morgan*

Why you smirking at me? It's midnight! We need to go to sleep, so do they! We can talk to them some more to tomorrow. They need to be responsible young people, and we need to pray they don't turn out like us and talk on the phone till 3AM! Come on Nicky, say goodnight so they can go to sleep and so can we.

*morgan and nicky both*

Goodnight, pals.
