Also known as: my sister in law, Rachel. Or, sissy. Sugar. Babe. Mrs. Ryan Gosling.
My amazing sister in law is leaving for the Missionary Training Center today, where she'll get prepped and "trained" and then leave on October 5th for a full time mission in Canada. I'll miss her, but, am so thrilled for her. She's amazing and will do amazing things. Yet another reason I love her so much.
If it wasn’t for Rachel, I wouldn’t be in love with Psych, dangerously obsessed with Bones (Angel!) had someone to watch Buffy reruns with and someone who makes the best banana bread ever.
For real, she does and it’s addictive. She is the real reason I gained 15 pounds last year.
She’s the funniest person you’ll ever meet and has the kindest heart. She’s Smart and silly and sassy and just plain fun.
She’s the person I discuss Bones with and send text messages to about our TV shows and celebrity gossip. She’s my example in who I want to be when I grow up. And, she’s younger than me. Which she never lets me forget.
She’s my voice of reason when I get all worked up and pissy. She supports me through the crazy and laughs at my phobias (well, both my sisters in law do this. I detest lizards and geckos and they both think this is hilarious. Especially since Rachel lived in Hawaii and would try to remind me that geckos are good because they eat the cockroaches. Can we please discuss how freaking big these geckos must be to eat a cockroach? GROSS).
She became auntie to my furbabies and helped me paint my dining room. We have wicked car ride karaoke sessions and had fun girl nights with makeup and chick flicks.
We were both in college at the same time, and she was always my inspiration. She did so much. She’s such a great example of laughter through the struggles.
She’s an amazing aunt to our nephew, an amazing sister, an amazing daughter and friend. She’s the only person I’d want to belt out Frank Sinatra to, and the only person who shares my love of black and white movies.
I love her more than I thought I could love an “in law”. She and Rebecca are my sisters and I’m so grateful for them.
Rach, I miss you already. I know that you’ll do great things over these next 18 months. I will miss you more than words can say but am so happy for you. Track down Ryan Gosling and marry him, k? I promise I won’t try to make out with him at your wedding.
Rebecca and I will be OK. We’ll watch Bones and Supernatural without you. But, it won’t be the same.
April 2012: You+Me+Bones marathon+Pancake House. I can’t freaking wait.
Hurry home. I won’t let Bones and Booth get married without you.
