Dear Sassy Friend,

Lord knows you're the one who keeps everyone in check. Your brutal honesty can feel rough around the edges sometimes, but is always much needed.

Thanks for telling everyone to calm the heck down. Seriously -- sometimes people don't realize when they're getting out of control (ex: when one person eats all the brie and now we just have 300 crackers). We all need a friend that is not afraid to tell it how it is, and you do just that. Forget sugarcoating things, because in the end that doesn't help anyone. Being an honest friend is one of the best types of people you can be.

Being the sassy person that you are, you make everyone else laugh without any effort. I can't count the times you've made a sassy comment that made me grab onto some furniture for support. You effortlessly find a balance between honesty and humor, and that's why we love you.

If there were ever a diva club let me tell you, you'd be first-in-line for president. Dressed in sunglasses and a pashmina, the number of eye-rolls everyone in our friend group has given you while you've freaked out over nothing are infinite. But that's OK, because from that we've learned to care more about the little things, and pay more attention to detail. Because eventually the little things will become the big things that you remember.

Lastly, please don't ever stop being sassy. We need real people in the world who aren't afraid to speak their minds. Sass is a talent, and you're an expert.

Love always,
Your friend.
