15 Years Ago

This post is especially for the bestest best friend anyone could ask for. Beck it's hard to believe that 15 years ago this month we were both nervous, scared and YOUNG freshmen at Penn View. Our friendship has survived a lot of "stuff" from teenage crushes on the same guy, to adult problems like divorces, deaths of family and friends, miscarriages and even the happy times like finding my true love and the birth of Kendrick. We have shared the good, the bad and the extremely UGLY of our lives these past 15 years. I can honestly say I don't know where I would be if it hadn't been for you a few times. Thanks for never holding my faults against me. Thanks for being there when the world (including my parents) turned its back. Thanks for telling me I could when I thought I couldn't. Thanks for the MILLIONS of hours spent talking on the phone, the visits that always seem to go way too fast, the many hours of watching the same movies OVER AND OVER again, the shoulder that you have provided to cry on, and most of all the happy times where we have laughed for hours on end over nothing. I am so proud of you for following your heart and making your dreams come true. You have accomplished more in 32 years than most people do in a lifetime. Thanks for being you and for accepting me for who I am. You are the BEST of the BEST!!!

This is for you, my best friend, the one person I can tell my soul too

Who can relate to me like no other

Who I can laugh with to no extents,

Who I can cry too when times are tough,

Who can help me with the problems of my life.
Never have you turned your back on me

Or told me I wasn't good enough

Or let me down
I don't think you know what that means to me

You have went through so much pain and you still have time For me.

And I love you for listening even when inside YOU are dying

And I look up too you because you are strong, and caring and beautiful.

Even though you don't think you are.
And I hope you know that I am always here

To listen to you laugh and cry and help

In all the ways that I can

And I will try to be at least half the friend you are To me.
I hope you know I would not be the person I am today, with out you.

My best friend.
