Godmothers are very special people. You were there from the very beginning of my life and you have been there for me in all types of situations since then. You are one of the most special people I know, and I love you and the person you are for so many reasons.

You have taught me that I can be anything I want to be. Even when my dream was as silly as being a singer on Broadway to my actual career path of being a future speech-language pathologist, you have always encouraged me. You have always been there to tell me to follow my dreams and to not be afraid. I am the type of person that doesn't have a lot of faith in myself, but you have been one of the constant people in my life telling me that I am capable of more than I think that I am.

You have taught me that I can go anywhere I want to go. My favorite memories with you are when we have gone places. From visiting you when I was little in St. Louis, to the many trips that we have made to the Big Apple, each trip has been filled with so much laughter, fun, and most importantly, love. Each time, you show me there is so much more in the world than the small town of Hurt, VA and I can go anywhere that I want, whether it is just to visit or stay long term.

Lastly, you've taught and shown me unconditional love. You and I both (and our families) have been through a lot in recent years and you have been one of my biggest supporters and rocks throughout the journey. You have shown so much strength and have helped me through all of the heartache, grief, anger, and sadness. You inspire me every day.

You are literally one of the coolest humans that I know and I am so lucky and blessed to have the most amazing godmother. Thank you for all of the things you have taught me and all the love you have shown me. You are the best!

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.
