Nicole!

As an individual we all have something that is very meaningful in our life. For some of us it may be reaching out to someone, families, listening to our hearts and many other things of importance. Personally, family is the most important aspect in my life, especially the relationship I have with my cousin.

I have many close relationships with my cousins. I am so grateful for that, but the relationship I have with my cousin Nicole is very extraordinary. Not many cousins are as close as she and I are. A lot of cousins get on each others nerves and have several disagreements but I probably can count in one hand the amount of times we had an argument or disagreement.

She has played a significant role model in my life. She has always catered to me and taught me valuable lessons in life such as in relationships and with boys! I can always depend on her to be there for me with the right words of advice and help to guide me in my choices. My mistakes are for me to make, but she is always right there to cheer me back once I have realized my faults.

The hardest thing about her being so far from me is not being able to see her everyday or having our daily conversations about events that have happened or our morning devotions and discussing how God has worked in our lives. I know for a fact that my life and my attitude toward life would be different if I didn't have her to look up to. There have been so many times in life when I would have given up but her support and love are there to guide me.

My Cousin Nicole!

Her footsteps act as a guidance plan for my life, it gives me the chance to learn from her bests and worsts. I listen to her advice because it's some of the best. I learn from her mistakes, but she gives me the lenience to make my own mistakes. I enjoy seeing Nicole live her life to the fullest. It gives me the urge to follow in her footsteps. I love her personality, smile, and silliness. I love the way she goes out of her way to make my days better when they're down. I love the laughs that we have had and I love the things we do together. And most of all, I love who she has become. I see her changing and becoming something better than what she use to be. I love the way that she is and everything that she is. And I love that no one can change her except for God. Only she can change herself for the better or for the worse. I've seen all the good things that she has done. Everything that she is, and everything that she will be in the future is just amazing. She is my role model, she is my hero in life, she is my everything. And most of all, she is my over protective big sister that I love with my all heart!

 Best friends, cousins,

1 Timothy 4:12
Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
