You changed my life.

You know who you are. I love you like a sister. I love your quirks, your laughs, and everything about you. Your presence automatically makes my day better. You are so bubbly and sweet and anyone you meet instantly loves you.

I honestly can’t pinpoint the day we met, but back then we were two scared middle schoolers on a new team, both looking for friends. Before I knew it we were skiing together in the winters and consistently at each other’s houses. Your family became my second home and mine yours. I can just walk on into your house like it’s mine and for that I am forever grateful. To have another place that I can feel just as comfortable as my home does is a blessing.

I know we are completely different people with completely different personalities but I always know just how you’re feeling and thinking. I am so used to you being in my life that being away at college without you is weird. You’ve been such a consistent part of my everyday life for the past five years and I wish you could be here experiencing college with me. However, I know you’re going to shine wherever life takes you next year and that we will always stay close. You will always have a special place in my heart and my life.
