In the near future, you will be offered a seat on your school bus. This is the moment you will meet a friend that will impact your life forever. As children, you will have a best friend to play in the woods, climb trees, ride bikes, swim in streams & to go on adventures. More importantly, she will be a compass for which all future friends are measured. Her strong character, selfless heart & free spirit will empower you. Her ability to speak from her heart & mean what she says will change the way you perceive the world. At 6 yrs old, she will have more strength, awareness & perseverance than any adult you will ever meet. She will be there for you, through good & bad. She will see the strength in you when you cant see it yourself. As you both grow up, you will appreciate more than ever the kind of friend you found in her. The more people you meet in life, the more aware you are that friends like her…people like her, just don’t exist. Blessed to have you, thanks for being different than the other kids. I love you mama.
