To my best friend of over 10 years: Thanks for not giving up on this friendship, even after we graduated from high school. We have been through it all since we first met in elementary school. We managed to stay friends even though I switched elementary schools, middle schools, and now we are at different colleges. So here's a thank you for everything for the last 10 plus years!
1. You get equally excited about new donut shops.
Yeah, so we may have a sugar problem, but it's OK. Thanks for always being down to indulge in delicious donuts!
2. We look stupid doing Zumba.
I'm so glad you're my workout partner and you enjoy dancing (terribly) alongside me. We definitely can't dance, but Zumba isn't the same without you laughing next to me.
3. You're literally down for Sprinkles cupcakes any time and day of the week.
Thank you for going with me when I crave my red velvet cupcakes. We really do have a sugar problem—donuts and cupcakes? Yikes.
4. You let me be stupid.
You always say yes to my stupid ideas, and I'm really glad you do. You're always up to go on adventures.
5. You have supported me in every sport I've done.
You've sat through dance recitals, soccer games, and golf tournaments. You are my biggest fan, and I can't thank you enough for that. Through every rough patch in golf, you've reminded me why I started and push me to keep going.
6. You come to me with open arms after every breakup.

Seriously, though. You've made me baskets, Valentine's Day presents, and just about everything else to help me get over my breakups. You always know how to brighten my mood, even when I am ugly crying.
7. We go to a lot of concerts and sing really loud in the car.
There is no one else I would want to gush over Tim McGraw or One Direction with.
8. You're there after every surgery.
Ever since you've known me, you always come over the day after surgeries. Even for my wisdom teeth surgery, you brought Paciugo and watched movies with me.
9. You constantly point me to the cross.
This is a big one! Not sure where I would be in my faith without you. You are always encouraging me to be the best I can. When I am struggling, you text me Bible verses and tell me God has control and to stop stressing. After all, a sweet friendship refreshes the soul. Proverbs 27:9.
10. We have a baking obsession.
Pretty sure every time we are together we bake or go find something sweet to eat.
11. I can text you at any time of the day, and you're there.
I have literally texted you late at night to get dessert and you're like, "Yeah, sure." I know I can always turn to you if I need anything.
12. We have a special bond.
You're basically my longest relationship. Thanks for being my best friend for all this time.
13. You have let me do life with you for over 10 years!
Seriously, we have been through just about everything together. Thank you for staying my friend this long. Even though we are many miles apart, we manage to have an inseparable bond. Thank you for being just as weird as me. You're the best, and I love ya lots!
