giving thanks. 11.26

Today is thanksgiving. This is my list of people I'm grateful for:


Mom; for holding my hand every step of the journey, keeping me going with your encouraging words, loving me despite my troubles and giving me a life I love.


Dad; for letting me be your little girl, teaching me about the world and people, making me laugh at the most ridiculous things, sharing your knowledge and being there everyday.


Chase; for the secret pact, looking out for me, holding me while i cry, making people look at us crazy when were in public together, and understanding when i come crying about my boy problems, even when you warn me.


Daisy; for never giving up, being the mature one, making me smile everyday, dancing without music, never letting me down, listening and being the mirror to my soul.


Jason: for ticking me when i'm upset, knowing just what to say, being my shoulder to cry on, telling me what i need to hear, believing i can do anything, hugging me close when i need it and making me feel beautiful.

Rachel; for being a mother, keeping me in line, listening to me, talking to me, giving me so much confidence, having our girly sleepovers, and letting me teach you so much.


Emily; for understanding, relating, loving me so dearly, keeping me entertained with your goofy stories, pouring your soul out to me, and letting me pour mine out to you without fear.


Muggin; for staying with me for 3 guys and 2 long years of heart ache and pain, never giving up on me, teaching me about my own self, opening up doors i was too afraid to and never forgetting me. 


Alexis; for telling me like it is, loving me as i come, treating me like a person, showing me i am beautiful, letting me be stupid and immature and talking to me in my darkest times.


Colleen; for letting me teach you, being there since 6th grade, making me feel important, never letting me forget i always have you and loving me.


Joe; for teaching me so much, letting me down so i could grow up, making me feel like shit, only to realize i was better than that and still being friends with me, despite our past.


Josh; for lying to me, forgetting me, making me feel bad, and hurt myself, it made me grow up, letting me pour out to you, and having the most breathtaking smile and eyes so dreamy i swear i get lost every time i see you.


Alex; for being there when i needed someone, for loving me, letting me go only so i could become the girl i am today, never losing your faith in me, and keeping me entertained with new songs everyday.


And to everyone else who has made my life one worth living. I love every single one of you.
