Letter #5

Dear Nathan Inovejas,

My little cousin.  You know you’re actually more like a brother to me.  I’ve taken care of you and Erin when you were babies and you grew to be more than just a cousin.  You impacted my life is such a unique way.  You helped me realize that family will always be a top priority. 

So here I am writing to you because you never seem to fail to surprise me.  Lil’ cuzzo take care of yourself okay.  It’s your senior year and I want you to live it up to the fullest because after graduation you’ll have a tough road ahead of you.  I can’t emphasize that enough to you and Erin.  Keep one thing in mind though, know that family will always be there for you no matter what. 

So I hope you lead a wonderful life.  And I hope you don’t let things get you down and I hope you will live and learn.  Life isn’t about the destination it’s about how you get there.  So live it up lil’ cousin and remember that I’ll always be here for you whenever you need someone. 

Much love from your cousin,
Darren
