Happy Birthday Abby!

Today is my best friend, Abby's 18th birthday :) I'm so happy I have her in my life!! She is so special to me and I just can't imagine life without her. Hahaha she'll prolly laugh if she ever reads this but I remember what she wore and our first words the very first day I met her. For some reason I just remember that! Hahaha anyways, she is such a great gal and I love her to death. We were both born in August, my birthday is the 13th which is switched around to the 31st which is Abby's birthday! (I know, we're dorks figuring this out!) And we were both born in the same hospital!! It's crazy! Hahaha she is beautiful and I've always wanted her hair. She's amazing in every way and we always have a stinkin' blast when we're together! She's always makin' me laugh and I just love spending time with her.

We kind of always joke about how Heavenly Father told us in Heaven that we could be best friends on earth and be born around the same time! Haha we are so crazy I love it! :) We were baptized on the same day! I remember feeling mad she got to go first, but now I think of it as an example thing. She is such a wonderful example to me and I love everything she has done. I look up to her so much and have wanted to be just like her, for so long!! We are just about two weeks apart so I remember crying when I went into Young Women's without her. That was so hard! But after that, whenever I moved up, we would always tell each other, "2 weeks and I'll be with ya!" And then it became easier to cope with. We took Drivers Ed together and it was just a stinkin' blast :) So many good memories. We hungout so much last summer. We did conditioning with the Cross Country team and it was always such a stinkin' hilarious thing because we died pretty much everyday. Well, at least I did. Abby was such a good/fast runner that she never waited for me... :( Hahaha I'm totally kidding!!

Anyways, Abby is just such a great friend to me. I wish I could be there with her on her birthday!! But if she reads this, I want her to know how much I love her!! She is SERIOUSLY my best friend. I have no idea what I would have done throughout my life, without her. I know I can go to her in the middle of the night for anything. The night before I left to college I was at her house till 2 in the morning just talking and finally saying, "See ya later!" It was pretty hard but I know I'll see her plenty of times in my life to come :) She's so special to me and I thank the Lord everyday that I was blessed with a friend like her in my life. Abby, I hope you have the best 18th birthday ever :) You are beautiful. You are a daughter of God and the Lord loves you unconditionally perfect, please never forget that!
