A Letter To My Grandpa
Sarah Schwartz

Dear Grandpa,

I just wanna start by saying I love you.

From the time I was born, I have always been your girl. I will always be proud to be your granddaughter.

I remember pretend marrying you when I was five. That way I always your girl. Little did you know, I would always be your girl, no matter what. Some of my happiest memories were with you on the farm. I always want to go back to those days.

You have always supported me and stood by me. I hope I am still making you proud to this day.

Your love of your family is something that I admire greatly. I love spending time with you and learning what you experienced as a child. I also enjoy going to the place where you were born for family reunions because I love seeing all my family and seeing where you caused all that mischief as a child. It is also a humbling experience to know where your roots come from.

I will be the first person to admit that I don't call you nearly enough. I know I should.

A couple weeks ago, we went on a date, just the two of us. I was the happiest girl in the world and I will always cherish that memory.

You will always be one of the few men that will always hold a special place in my heart.

I know life is getting harder for us both but remember:

That I love you and I will always be your girl.

Love you always,

Your Princess

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

For better or for worse

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
