This is an article to our best friend. This is an article for you, because you have done so much for us. Although we have only known you for a short period of time, we have grown to love you so much and the impact you have made on us will last for a lifetime. It all started with a random invite to a girl who we didn’t want to sit alone. You were quiet at first, but at the moment you spoke, we simultaneously thought, “Wait, she speaks? and she's hilarious!” Your unique brand of quiet humor is something we’ve never experienced before and one that we will always love and support. We understand that you don’t always want to be social, but when you are, it's enough to keep us going.
The moment we met you, it was a new beginning for us as much as it was for you too. We never would have expected to develop such an amazing friendship amongst the five of us. “We also never would have expected that such a quiet little nugget could take us on so many adventures." You’ve encouraged us to try many new things, like attempting to ice skate with a triple milk crate, getting us accustomed to country music, and even “instilling upon us so much knowledge about the Olympics that we never would have known without you." You know “how to make anyone’s day, even with the simplest comments and by just being around. You are the biggest ray of sunshine”.
“In the best friendships, everyone contributes something unique and you’ve added so much wonderful diversity to our experience." We hope you know that we appreciate you incredibly and have treasured every moment we have spent with you. We would do absolutely anything to make you feel good, because you consistently do the same for us. So as we sit here writing this for you, we want you to know “Rylie, our lives would not be the same without you and we love you! STAY WILD”.
