Little Lovin'

Now that recruitment is winding down for most everyone,  it's time to talk about what most sisters look forward to at this time of the year: getting a little. I, myself, have had four littles in my time in Phi Sig, six if you include my two adopted littles. My first fall recruitment in, I got a set of twins and they have been there for me through the entire time. I have also had two other littles, one who disaffiliated and one who disassociated during her new member period. Though it's hard to lose a little, it's always great to know that I have two biological littles who have stuck by my side no matter what. 

Two years ago, I received the best gift I could have ever gotten when I came into Phi Sig. Their names are Kristen and Sarah and they are the two girls that make my world go 'round. They were my first littles and my only set of twins that I've gotten. I remember their revealment like it was yesterday. Our sisterhood development chair (SDC) had us decorate large boxes according to us and our personality (large enough for us to fit inside) and our littles had to go up to the box that they thought their big was in. Not only did they both know that it was me inside of my box, but they knew that they were twins. From inside of my box, my heart raced. I could hear my sisters outside of the box saying, "aww" and "they're holding hands! They know they're twins" or "Are you sure that you're twins" or "Are you certain this is your big?" They answered all of the questions with one simple answer "We're absolutely certain!" On the count of three, our SDC had us pop out and both of my twins gave me the biggest hugs imaginable. I cried and I'm not even ashamed to say that I did so. 

During this last recruitment recruitment, I was honored to be able to give the senior speech during our preference round. The following is an excerpt from that speech: 

"While I don’t have my own big sapphire, I do have my twin little sapphires and they are the most beautiful women that I know. They are my rocks. I’ve taught them a lot and in turn, they’ve also taught me a lot. They’ve been there through all of it with me and we’ve truly grown together. Everything that’s good in the world is what dwells inside of their souls. I’m proud of them and I know they’ll go on to do great things both inside and out of this chapter."

I could honestly go on for days about how proud the two of them make me. Sarah has taken on leadership roles within the chapter and Kristen is currently in the process of becoming a firefighter! I don't have a single word to describe the two of them or the joy they have brought me. They truly do have everything good in the world wrapped up inside of them! 

As you all consider getting your littles, remember that they deserve love and to be treated with respect. Remember that littles aren't "babies" they're our equals. Just like anyone else, they deserve our love and affection! It's time to spoil them, beauties! Remember when you got your big? That's what all of the new members are looking forward to! 

Fall 2012 Revealment. Kristen,  me,  and Sarah.
