Claire.
Just.
Graduated.
From.
High.
School.


WHAT?!?

I'm still adjusting to the fact she was in high school and now she is off to college! My little sister who is three years younger than me will now be in college.
That means i'm going to be a senior.
And that she will have to deal with creepy college men.

THAT'S IT I'M TRANSFERRING TO UNC.

No she can stand her ground and fend off the men.
And she will do amazing at college.
I remember when she started high school.
The semester beforehand I had warned/threatened all the men in band that if they even looked at her the wrong way they would be toast.
A month into school she had her first boyfriend...
So I failed at keeping all the men away from my much cooler little sister.

When I think of Claire its hard for me to put out of my mind the image of her when she was around the age of three, with an adorable little bob hair cut, a little side pony on her head and her holding her baby doll bailey.

I'm still trying to quite fathom that Claire is a teenager much less her now just recently turning to a legal adult.
Claire is a legal adult.


But Claire I know will do wonders to this world.
She has an immense amount of compassion and she is either going into nursing or social work.
She will make such a difference in those fields.
And I know she will make her mark as she has done time and time again.
I think she is the most driven out of the three of us.
I cant wait to just sit back and bask in her glory.

So whats the deal with the title?
Well recently since I've had some time on my hands I've been watching Disney movies on Netflix.
I recently saw Mulan and at the end when Mulan saves everyone and Mushu is looking on he says that line.
How she has grown up and done great things.
Mushu and I are in the same boat right now.

Claire is growing up and not exactly saving China but she is doing and will be doing more incredible things in her future.

So to my baby though not so baby sister Claire.

Congratulations on your graduation.
Make sure to remember me when you are getting your Nobel Peace Prize.
