To my Guy Best Friends,

Thank you for being temporary boyfriends, snuggle buddies, problem solvers, cooks, prom/homecoming dates, movie buddies, and my best friend. You guys are always there for me when I need you the most and I appreciate you.

From sushi dates to slumber parties I could always count on endless laughs and memories that will stick with me forever.

This past summer was one that will stay with me for a long time-- we all were getting ready to transition into a new life without each other. Knowing that, we made the best of summer by always being together and having fun.

Thank you to each of you for having my back with every decision I made- good or bad- and not being afraid to tell me I was wrong. Thank you for bringing me Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream to my door step after I got broken up with and forcing me out of the house to have fun.

Thank you for letting me be myself around you and not having to worry about what I looked like or if I had make up on or not. Thanks for not looking at me weird when I let one rip on your couch, or when I blow up your bathroom.

Finally, thank you for being my #1 support system, and showing up for as many softball games as your busy and crazy lives allowed you to.

I want to thank your families for accepting me with open arms as the daughter they wish they had, or maybe another daughter in the family! I am thankful that all of you have opened your houses to me over the summer as my family moves away.

As my family does move away, just know that home is where the heart is and my heart is with each and everyone of you in different ways.

Love,

Me
