Dear Caitlin Elizabeth Thomas,
A friend can mean a lot of different things to many different people, and to me you are one of a kind. I have never had a friend quite like you before. You have been such a great example to me and you have so many great qualities about you. You always look for the good in people and you have never been the one to judge others. You will never know how much i appreciate your care and concern for me at this crazy time. I look up to you so much, but maybe after today i will have to look down on you. :) You truly are my best friend. Thank you so much for you friendship and everything you have done for me. I love you.
xoxo,

I went to the color festival with Dezmon, Tyler, Adam, Aaron, and Kira. it was so much fun, we had a blast.

Dear Family,

lately I have been thinking. Life has gone by so fast. I remember when my mom used to drop me off at school and tell me she would be waiting in the same place that afternoon to pick me up. Now i drive myself to school everyday, and in one more year i will be off to college, on my own. i have always dream't of this day but now that it is getting closer and i am getting older i have realized how much my parents do for me. sometimes i take them for granted. I am not going to have my mom to cook me dinner every night and always be right there for me when i need her, i won't have my dad to come home and give me those great hugs and kisses he always gives me, or Braylyn to ask me how my day went and to tell me that i look pretty, Brinnley to walk over to me and want me to acknowledge her, and Brayden to come home and keep me company . i have realized how much my family means to me. Friends may come and go but your family will be there right by your side forever. they are the ones that really matter in life. i love them more than anything. Thank you so much.
