For the truest friend I've ever known...

First off HAPPY DAY to the women for which all that live are here. You truly are amazing and I look up to every Mom that created every child today.
Anyways this is dedicated to my best friend. I know it sounds cliche' but she is my best friend in the sense that I have never had a friend like her. We've known each other such a short while and I feel a bond with her much like my god sister I grew up with. I don't know if you've met her but she just grows on you.
Anyways Beth I'd like to take a moment to be your mirror since you've been kinda of down on yourself and I'm sure you feel like you don't have much of a support system but this is what I see when I look at you.
You joy and light. There is a light that surrounds your very presence it's one of those natural lights people would kill to have. You make the atmosphere in any room instantly become light and breezy. It's like a breath of fresh air after being trapped in a closet. You make all the negativity disappear and it's replaced with goodness and a complete feeling of comfort. I am at ease around you and feel free to be myself.
I see beauty. So much beauty. It's not a bam she's hot beauty. It's a quiet beauty that takes you by surprise and makes you take a second look. It's a beauty that goes deeper than skin deeper than bones it's from a hidden place in your souls but you can see it shine through your amazing eyes. You maybe short but this beauty shines so tall people still stop and notice.
I see determination and perseverance. I see a drive in you to be something more than you are or have been. You are going to grow into everything you dream because of this. You have been through so much and still you remain optimistic and light hearted. You have the optimism of a child but at the same time You are in total control of yourself and who you are.
I see freedom. A freedom I only wish I could have. You are you. You are the you you were 10 years ago though wiser you know who you are and what you stand for and believe in.
I see loyalty and devotion towards your family and friends.
I see understanding. Your eyes could best be described as understanding you listen you hear you take everything in and you don't judge you understand. I feel like I could tell you anything I feel like you would hold my secrets like they were your own. I thought at first you were a talker but your ability to speak your mind is only outweighed by how well you hear what people have to say.
I see personality and a sense of humor that demands attention. You have enough to give every dreary dull person some and them some to spare. You are a ball of personality and laughs combined. I don't think anyone would have a hard time getting along with you or laughing with you.
I see strength. I see so much strength and power and ability to do great things. You are so strong and even though I don't know if you could physically kick someones ass you make up for that in effort. I feel completely safe with you because I know you could handle anything thrown at you. You're smart so smart You can adapt to anything and you're good at it.
I see friendship not the onesided "oh she's my best friend I know nothing about her" friendship. But the true friendship where I honestly feel like you could be my sister. It's a bond that I hope doesn't become tainted with time because I feel like I could tell you anything and you'd be on my side no matter what. You are my best friend I don't think I can stress that enough. And anyone with you in there life should thank their lucky stars because you are amazing on so many levels and I don't think you hear it enough. You were put here for a reason and you are going to do great things and touch so many peoples lives just as long as you don't let that light you posses go out. You're such a great person and if I were you I would look in the mirror everyday and smile because I knew how great a friend sister and person I was.
I am thankful everyday that I met and thankful for everyday we talk. Even when we argue it's better having you in my life and arguing that not having you in my life. You have helped me more than you will probably ever know and though this may sound uber emo sappy and you may not believe it I think God put you in my life because he knew I needed a real friend.
I never had a real sister but if I had I'd wish that she were just like you. Tabby is so lucky to have an older sister like you to look up too (if you were standing on a stool because I'm sure she's taller than you ;) I can't think of a better role model for what getting through real life and doing a damn good job is like than you.
I want you to stick around in my life I want my kids will call you Aunt Beth and I hope that they will know you like I know you and love you like I do. I hope we are still friends more than anything and more than that I hope you realize just how many people you've touched and just how amazing you are.
You're awesome girl and I look up to you so much. I want to be just like you oneday because you're one in million.
I hope you realize it soon. Thank you for being here for me from the first day I met you. You're the perfect example of what a true friend should be and I love you like a sister. So cheer up before people start to think my emoness has rubbed off on you. Smile and have a great day. XO
