Dear best friends,

Sometimes I feel like I don't say this enough, but thank you.

Thank you for always being there for me whenever I need to rant, whenever I need a shoulder to cry on, and whenever I just need to de-stress.

Thank you for always making me laugh until it feels like I'm getting abs, I'm so happy to have found so many people that share the same sense of humor as me, and make me crack up laughing.

Thank you for always being down to go on adventures with me, whether it's going to concerts, taking random trips downtown, spending way too much money at the mall, and more.

Thank you for always protecting me, and reassuring me that everything will be okay and that no matter what, you'll never leave my side.

Thank you for encouraging me to do my best, being proud of me whenever I achieve something and supporting every decision I make, whether it's good or bad. It feels good to know I have such a large and loving support system that I can always fall back on.

Thank you for taking a million photos of me until we get the exact and perfect one, thank you for always dealing with my photo visions, and for always wanting to be in some with me too. I know I'll look back on these photos and remember the full story and memories behind them.

Thank you for sharing the same morals as me, and being people I know will always do the right thing and want to help others before themselves.

Thank you for always giving me the confidence I need to get on with the day, whether it's telling me that my outfit looks good, or I look happy, or that I've grown in the best way possible.

Thank you for loving me unconditionally, even when sometimes I don't even love myself.

You all mean more to me than you know.

I'm sorry if I don't remind you often enough, but I love you all and thank you. For everything.

Love, Rachel
