This is for all the college kids that live in close quarters with another person. I want to give a little recognition to my roommate and I hope you can relate.

Dear Roomie,

It's me, your crazy roommate...

I never knew that I would become so close with someone so quick (besides the whole 12 feet by 15 feet room situation)

We literally went a whole week without seeing each other and it felt weird. Thanksgiving went by quickly, but I just did not realize that I had not told you how thankful I am for you.

I'm thankful for the daily encouragement that we give each other. Whether it's just a note when I get up or a random text during the day, you are always encouraging me. I am forever grateful.

I am thankful for the random trips that turn into the best memories. Yes, most of these random trips are to get food, but we defiantly bond over food. (I will say that it is a huge plus to have a roommate that loves food just like you do!!)

I am thankful for your heart for the Lord and others. Your heart is so beautiful. You push me to the cross daily, and your actions do not go unseen.

(I could say so many inside jokes here, but none of you would understand them.)

In closing, my dad really was right when he said that I would meet my lifelong friends in college, and you have become one of those friends.

I love you, and I always will.
