It's the morning of my 18th birthday and I am awoken by the familiar voice of my older sister, Maggie. "Bethy" she whispered in my ear. "Wakey wakey! You know what day it is!" I feel my bed dip from where she has sat down.

I slowly open my eyes and see her smiling face. My sister was always the prettiest of the two of us, her brown hair cut short to frame the beautiful features of her face, her green eyes bright and luminous, shapely curves that give her body the perfect hour glass figure. Today, she is wearing a green sundress that compliments her features perfectly. Figures she'd look better than me even on my birthday.

I've been waiting for this day for a while now, my daddy had promised me that he would give me his old Ford truck on the day I turned 18 as long as I maintained my 4.0 gpa and if I kept up my work on our farm. It's safe to say I've met his requirements.

I slowly sat up in my bed smiling at my sister. "I'm 18, Maggs." I leaned forward and captured my sister in a hug.

"Happy birthday Beth." She said and gave me a kiss on the cheek. "I've got a surprise for you!". Maggie jumped off of my bed and went to my desk where a bag and box wrapped in really pretty black satin ribbon sat. Maggie brought the packages over to me and gestured for me to open them. "Open the bag first." She said with a huge grin.

I began pulling out the multicolored tissue paper out of the black bag, finally reaching the bottom I pulled out the lacy fabric and held it up. In my hands was the cream colored lace dress I'd been pining over for months, I lifted my head toward Maggie with a shocked expression. "Oh my gosh Maggs! I love it! It's the exact one I wanted!" I squealed.

She laughed " Well duh! Daddy told me you'd been asking for it so I went ahead and got it for you! Now open your next gift, this one is from Glenn." Glenn is Maggie's fiancée they've been together since they were in high school and Glenn was like a big brother to me.

As I undid the black ribbon holding the large box closed, I thought about how perfect this day already was and it just started. I gracefully lifted the lid, removed the wrapping paper and stared wide eyed at the brown leather cowboy boots. They were so beautiful, I had tears in my eyes. Hands down best birthday.

"Glenn bought these?" I looked up at my sister who was still smiling. She nodded her head and I jumped out of my bed throwing my arms around my sister. " They're beautiful! I'm so happy! I'm going to call Glenn and thank him."

"When you're finished, get dressed and come down stairs." She said as she left my room closing the door behind her.

I quickly walked over to my nightstand where my phone was sitting still attached to the charger. I sat on the edge of my bed and scrolled to my contacts and found Glenn's name. clicking the call button I waited, on the fourth ring a familiar voice picked up. "Hello?"

"Is this THE best brother in law a girl could ask for?!" I laughed

"Happy birthday Bethy. Did you like your boots?"

"Of course! Thank you so so so much Glenn I love them. I gotta get ready for school now but I'll have Maggie text you a picture of my outfit so you can see how amazing I'm going to look in my boots!"

"Alright Beth, Happy birthday again."
