I love my family. When I say family I don't mean my aunts and uncles ( though I do I love them.). I mean my family of friends. Now who is included in this?
Amanda- Who got me a Digi cam for Christmas/B-Day.
Samantha- A Memory card for said Camera.
Ryan- See above.
Bailey
Jackie-A $20 gift card for...BOOKS!
Mitch-Mr. Potatoe Head Darth Tater
Anais-See Above.
There are a lot more people on that list, yet those are the ones who have just given me the best gift I've ever gotten for my birthday. What gift is that you ask? A suprise birthday party (held at the Lovelady's house) for my 18th birthday, which is Wenesday.
Why is it the best? Because they were there and we laughed and had a good time with Cake. I don't know what I do would do without these people. No, I do know what I would do. I would be totally lost and a completely different person than I am now. Every single one gives me something differnt and I don't just mean gifts.
Amanda is my sister and there for me no matter what. Sammi is my other sister, the one who teaches me how to smile even when I feel like crying. Bailey...god, she's someone with who no words are needed. Jackie, while a fairly new friend, is someone I hope will be my friend for a long long time. Ryan, my surrogate brother is special because I will never know my actual brother. Anais is unique. She makes me smile and her relationship with Mitch shows me what love could be. Mitch, dear god, Mitch makes me laugh like no one else I've ever known.
There were a few other people who were supposed to be there, like Joe, who got grounded and The Fazzinos (anyone else thinks it's weird that they were on the list to go to my party...cause I don't. Fuzz is an adult I trust and am so glad I met as a freshman. I've never said this about anyone before that I can remember but...he's been a role model for me.), who had to cancel because they made other plans that they forgot about until last minuet.
Other people who could have been invited weren't, not because I don't love them but because it was a suprise party and my sister had know way of finding out who they were or contacting them. To be honest the party wasn't much of a suprise but it still made my heart happy, knowing that they cared enough about me to throw it. I don't know if any of them actually realize how much that means to me.
It means so much that I'm so happy I want to cry. For people who know me well they realize that's a huge thing for me to say.
These are the people I want to surround myself with for my whole life. The ones who make me happier than I can ever remember being and accept me as I am, faults and all.
To Them: Thank You and I Love You All.
