Caitie,
I know our tradition calls for a letter on Friday (Big/Little Reveal), but I thought this would tell the whole world about us.
One year ago, you became my best friend. Yes, Delta Zeta made you my sister. Emily made you my Twin. But, Caitie Carr, you made me your best friend. One whole year of laughter, tears, screaming inappropriate rap songs, laying on the floor until "it's fine" was really how we felt, and so so many chickfila dates.
It's so strange that I haven't known you my whole life. You know me better than I know myself. Having a friend like you had bettered me in so many ways. For instance, I love UAH because of you. Remember the girl that rolled her eyes at every event that was held? Nowadays, I stand by your side, I participate and even have fun. Yeah, okay. I still don't sing along to the UAH fight song, but I did hum along the other day. You believe that I can accomplish all the things I put my mind to. The support you show me is incredible. It's like having my own little cheerleader. You show me kindness every. single. day. From buying a futon to put in your room so I can nap, to letting Michael become the triplet in the Fam, to buying me chickfila because I'm poor. You take care of me. You've helped me let go of ghosts, you've taught me to be brave, you have changed me.
I know that you are not just a Delta Zeta sister to me. You are not just my friend. You are going to be my life long friend, and I am so happy to know you'll be with me when I start making big steps in my life. Thank you for fighting me, bettering me, feeding me, sharing a beautiful Big with me, and accomplishing dreams with me. By the end of this week, we will have Little ones, but don't worry. We'll help each other raise them up. We'll teach (force) them to love each other. I mean, you and I are certainly not going to stop being together constantly. We have to let the Littles know about our big plans of being Dalmation Plantation owners. I think they'll be into it. I love you so much and I hope this makes you smile. You and I will always be Leslie Knope and Ann Perkins.
You're a "good one", Cait.
