The Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member took to Instagram to wish her big sister, Kim, a happy birthday and made it a family affair.
Family is everything to The Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member, Melissa Gorga. The mom of three is a fierce protector of her kids, her husband Joe Gorga, and her two sisters. So, it shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that she penned the nicest tribute to her oldest sister, Kim Pirrella, which she posted to her Instagram account on Friday, Aug. 2.

Melissa posted the most adorable throwback photos for her sister's birthday that show just how much love there is between them, even with their age gap. A very young Melissa can be seen looking up to her eldest sister in the first photo, showing off how much she literally looks up to her. The next two photos of Melissa and Kim (along with their middle sister, Lysa Simpson), are a little more current, but serve as proof to how much they look alike.
Melissa's caption about her sister could not be any sweeter. "I'll always look up to you my big sister," she wrote.
"Happy birthday to the 1st born Marco girl," she added. "Thank you for always giving me amazing advice and loving my kids so much! Love you Kim Pirrella."
Melissa's sisters returned the love in the comments of the post revealing that they will be celebrating Kim's birthday during an upcoming trip to Italy. "Thank you little sister," Kim wrote. "Love you more! See you in Positano tomorrow."
"I can't believe we are going to be celebrating in Italy together," Lysa added. "Happy birthday sissy. See you later. Love you."
Melissa's RHONJ cast members also took to the comments to share their birthday wishes. "Happy Birthday beautiful, fun and talented Kim," Margaret Josephs wrote. "We love you."
"Happy happy birthday gorgeous," Rachel Fuda added.

In a vintage interview with BravoTV.com, as seen in the video above, both Kim and Lysa opened up about what it's like to have Melissa as a sister.

The sisters jokingly revealed that the best part of Melissa being their sister is "enjoying the fringe benefits" from it. "We get to enjoy all of the perks," Lysa added, noting that they're "proud" of Melissa.
"See? My big sisters are proud of me," Melissa said with a smile on her face.
