This picture was taken Halloween 2000. Twelve years ago. It's so hard to believe. We were just two 16 year old carefree girls with the whole world at our feet. I never realized that God had given me one of the greatest gifts of my entire life. He blessed me with a beautiful soul for a best friend and confidant. She taught me to be a better person, was a Christian role model, and always there in my frequent moments of drama. She was my person. The person that you say, "If I die do this..." to. The person I called in my moments of desperation. The person that stood beside me when I puked my guts up, got married, lost my first baby, gave birth to 2 babies, and started college at 23. She always believed in me. She always had my back. She was beautiful inside and out. She was brilliant. As April 27 creeps closer and closer and it gets closer to our ten year reunions I miss her more and more. I am so blessed to have called her my friend. I will never forget all of the beautiful moments we shared. You were my angel then and you are my angel now.
Hey girl. I still think about you and pray for you! I hope that you can find an outlet in blogging as I have. Like you said, you don't do it for the reader but yourself. I'm a terrible blogger, but it has been a source of release when I needed it most. I'll be following you! ;)
