To my Valentine's
Megan - the time we've known each other hasn't been long but it's been some of the most meaningful time I've spent knowing anyone. You're everything I try to be as a person. You're creative, you're determined, you're honorable, you're multi-talented, you are truly one of the best people it's ever been a privilege to know. Here's to soon living as the family we truly are. I love you. Kay - I've known you quite a while haven't I? Since you were in high school! It seems like years. The whole time I've known you you've been kicked when you were down, beaten into the dirt, and told to stay there. With plenty of tears and sighs in between you've always gotten back up and fought for the happiness you know you deserve, which someday you will get mark my words. The strength and perseverance you display every minute of every day moves me. I love you Kay. Don't you ever stop being you. Jett - I can honest to the gods say I've never met someone like you. You are arguably the most passionate and determined person I know. You're principled, you're charismatic, you're a dreamer, you're a doer, you're strong, you're beautiful and I would be honored to call myself a fraction of the man you are. We disagree, we fight, we argue, and I love you. Nothing could ever separate me from the friend I found in you. Taylor - Another person I call family that I've known for quite a while. We've been through a lot together, including times where I haven't been the friend you deserve, but we've made it here. In a lot of ways we're very opposite ends of the spectrum but we're also a lot a like. The thought of you always reminds me that there's something to smile about in the world. You're truly the color pink personified, you just make everything so much brighter. Thanks for putting up with me. Steph - Even on a bad day anything you have to say has a way of making me smile, you're upbeat, you're talented, you're always having fun or cracking some joke or another. You're a ray of sunshine I'm blessed to have, you're my little nerd <3 Kass - What can I say that hasn't been said about you? Beautiful, skilled, intelligent, valuable, passionate, and incredible have all been said to you but I believe always bare repeating. I love you Kass, you're the kinda family that can't be asked for but discovered in the luckiest of ways. H - I don't even remember becoming friends but to say I'm the luckiest guy in the HS fandom is an understatement. So much as talking to you was like meeting a celebrity but knowing you on such a human and friendly level is a blessing indescribable. You're beautiful, level-headed, easy to talk to, and what I strive for to be for others. Thank you for calling me friend <3 Angel - To say you've impacted me as a person is a gross understatement. I've known you for I don't know how many years now and the times you've sacrificed or reached out for me are numbers I couldn't count if I tried. You've taught me so much, made me rethink numerous decisions, and always remind me of how strong I need to be sometimes. You're family to me, you always will be.
