To be an only child at home is such a lonely and a boring world,

But she made it colorful by accompanying me and sometimes we even played sword,

We played barbie dolls and be a princess in our blanket made palace,

We run, we jump, we hide, and be merry till we get tired and when grandmom gets angry at last.

My childhood memories became more memorable because of her.

My unforgettable moments became hilarious and more dramatic that always in my mind lingers.

We rock on the same boat and we even slept together.

She is Lanie, my cousin, my childhood bestfriend, but I treated her as my sister as we get older.

Our bond became stronger.

Now, she's the best mom of two talented children, so do I,

She's here in Hongkong taking care of a naughty kid, so am I,

She's full of positivity and energy eventhough many trials came her way,

She never gave up, she stays cheerful and gay.

Do I need to prove my jolliness too, everyday?

I know we're both contented, living a life peacefully and with serenity.

She fights for me, she strengthens my ability on how to deal with my insecurities.

I lift her up, I share advices on how to manage  her differences in this cruel society.

She's one of a kind, a helpful sister and a gorgeous daughter,

But don't make her angry, you'll not gonna love to see her.

My dear Lani, focus on your family, uplift your financial stability.

And most of all be grateful of what God has given you with humbled heart and good personality.
