It all started with a Spongebob joke.

A letter to my best friend,

I want to start by wishing you a happy birthday. You’re like the big sister I always wanted, but more importantly, you’re my best friend. Though we technically met in Kindergarten, we officially met at freshman orientation in high school. I can literally remember it like it were yesterday: I was terrified and clutching my red folder like it was my lifesaver in a room where I was drowning. And then, through an incredible teacher, I was introduced to you. I knew from looking at you that you were the cool kid in the room, the one who knew what was happening and didn’t care about any of it. I envied your blasé attitude and I feared that my over-excitable nature would ruin a friendship before it began. And yet, you smiled and told me your name.

We found out that we had the same classes and sat together at lunch. We had the same, stupid sense of humor and bonded over Spongebob jokes. We sat at the same lunch table for four years. I remember how we told each other everything, good and bad, and received hugs all the same. I remember how senior year, you told me you were applying to one of the same schools as me. I remember when we both received acceptance letters to Notre Dame of Maryland University and swore we’d stay best friends through college. And we did. We even lived as roommates for two (and a quarter) years.

I’ve known you for 7, almost 8 years now and with each passing year I am more and more grateful to call you my best friend. Though life has changed our paths and you go to a different school, we still talk weekly, sometimes daily. We see each other frequently and always have some new story (and a Spongebob reference or two). My mom calls you her third daughter and your mom reminds me I’m always invited over. We’re practically family at this point.

In this time, I’ve grown plenty, but I’ve watched you grow as well. I’ve watched you experience family struggles, heartbreak and personal struggle, but I’ve also watched you experience success, happiness and love. I’ve gotten to see you at your highest and lowest and I love you so much at times I wonder how I could have gotten so lucky to call you my friend. I’m so proud that you share all of this with me and call me your friend, that you have invited me into your home and introduced me to your incredible boyfriend.

I don’t know what made God or the Fates or whichever All-Powerful Being decide that we both should be so lucky to not only know each other, but to share so much of each others’ lives by being best friends, but I know I will thank them until the end of my days. I wish you the happiest of birthdays and just know that I will be here to celebrate each year with you forever and ever. As your best friend.

Love,

The shy girl with the red folder

My Mother, My Bestie

My mother is my best friend in many ways! We are so alike yet so different.

I wrote this when I just had the best fall evening with my mother because Mother’s Day is this weekend! I feel bad for the people who are not best friends with their moms.

Every year for my mother’s birthday we do mother-daughter pictures. We started this tradition when I was only three years old.

This is one of my favorite traditions because I love seeing my mom and getting to be goofy with her. She is just one. of the best people I know. My mom is one of a kind. She is smart and has the best advice for me! I hope one day I can pass down as good advice as she gives me. My mom and I are different people but also very similar. We think very similarly! We both think about others feelings and try to put ourselves in the other persons shoes. This is a quality I think I picked up from my mom and I admire it in her very much.

Another very similar thing we do is closing ourselves off sometimes when things get real and difficult. Being vulnerable is a soft spot for both of us and it makes it difficult to communicate to each other sometimes. We are also uniquely different… some of these things make us not get along! This however is not a bad thing.My mother is, like I said before, sort of a closed of person. She can be vulnerable and emotional when needed, but I don’t push her to be that unless absolutely necessary.I am more of an emotional person (not that my mother isn’t) but this can be hard when I am feeling a lot of things at once and maybe I cannot explain everything I want to in detail.

Another different quality in us is that my love language is touch and hers is words of affirmation. To show her I love her, I want to give hugs, hold her hand, and always keep a hand on her. What she needs instead are reassuring words and thoughts to make her feel loved in the best way possible.

I love my mother so very dearly, and I cannot wait for more adventures with her!

A Letter To My Single Mother On Mother’s Day

A thank you letter to the woman who had to do it on her own.

When Mother’s Day comes around, it usually means taking the time to show some appreciation to our mother figure in our lives. Whether it’s making her breakfast in bed or taking her put to her favorite restaurant, we want the best for our moms. This time, I wanted to show a little extra appreciation for the moms that were faced with raising a child on their own. Whatever the circumstances brought their way, they truly showed what it means to be real strong women. They constantly persisted because they wanted the best for us. Now, it’s our turn to show them that we noticed every single time.

To my mother,

You are the epitome of what I strive to be. You have shown me on numerous accounts what it is to believe in myself. If there was one thing I will ever learn from you, it is to never give up on what I believe in.

There were so many times where we had what was close to nothing, but I never knew. Even when I was old enough to comprehend the idea of economic status, I didn’t mind that we didn’t have much. You always made sure that I was taken care of. You always made sure that there was never a longing for anything my heart desired. I was spoiled to say the least. There were times where I knew you sacrificed certain things so that I could be happy. I want you to know that I saw these things. I saw every time you made sure I looked nice so that the other kids wouldn’t say anything to me. I saw when you would try extra hard to be involved in my education growing up. I saw every little detail, and even though it seemed like I brushed it off, I remember every part.

There were times where I second guessed your guidance, and for that I apologize. There were things that you simply could not teach me and I had to experience for myself. I wanted so badly to have a father figure, but not for the reasons you think. Yes, I missed out on silly things like father-daughter dances, but that wasn’t what I cared about. I didn’t want to have a father figure in the house for me, I wanted to have a life partner for you. I wanted to see you end up with someone good.

Mom, I always wanted nothing more than to see you happy. Growing up, I didn’t understand why it was always just you and I, but I didn’t mind having quality time with you. I remember getting upset at night before bed as a child because I would ask for someone to send you a man who would love you as much as I loved you. I now know that there is nobody who could love you unconditionally as much as I could.

When I first found out you were sick at 13, I was scared. Mostly, I was scared because I thought I was going to lose you to the same sickness that took your sister. It was a really hard time, and I couldn’t quite understand why you had to be the one to endure such a fate. After everything life brought your way, I was so angry. You have done nothing but fight for other people and do everything and anything for everyone else, especially me. As you went through chemo, I knew you would come out of it stronger than ever. That’s when I realized I had to do better. I had to be better because you couldn’t do it by yourself anymore. It was mine turn to look after you.

For all these reasons and more, I appreciate you. I should probably say that more than I do, but this is me trying to make up for it. I know I may not be a child anymore, but I do know that wherever life takes me you’ll be right next to me. Every heartbreak, every broken bone, you know exactly what to do. Maybe it’s your spidey-mom senses, but you know exactly what to do.

I spend every day trying to make you proud of the person I am and will become. I promise to look forward to more movie dates and nights where we can’t help but laugh at the inconveniences life throws our way. I promise that if I become a clown, I will be the best clown there ever was, just for you.

I can’t wait until the day where you’re holding my hand when I walk down the aisle. You are my mother, father, and best friend all in one. I am grateful. I love you, Mom.
