To my parents:
I only recently realized what amazing people you are. Yes our relationship isn't perfect and it never will be, and I'll always be the difficult child, but you guys have done so much for me. Even in times when you had no idea what to do, you still tried your hardest to make sure I was healthy and happy, but most importantly, following Christ. I can honestly say I will miss you all something awful. You have always been my biggest supporter. And I love you both for everything. I cannot thank you enough. I'm sorry for all the things I've put you through.
To Matthew:
You won't know about this, but kid? I love you. You're the greatest little being I've ever met. I pray for you constantly and I really hope you choose the right path. I'm always here for you buddy.
Sam:
You have been my best friend for a good ten or eleven months now. Can you believe it? All the stuff we've been through--it's such a blessing. I am so glad I got to experience senior year with you by my side. I never thought that I would love you as much as I do, and I hate that college is separating us. But God has such bigger plans for the both of us that we can never imagine. And maybe we'll be a part of each other's lives down the road. But for now, hold on to the good we had. I'll miss it so much. I'll miss you so much.
Lacey:
Just know that you gave my life purpose. You gave me someone to take care of. I'm sorry that I can't be the friend you need me to be.
Alexis:
Oh, my dear girl. I have seen you grow immensely and you have no idea what a blessing your life has been to me. You've wandered in and out of it since eighth grade--did you realize that? How long we've known of each other? I'm so glad that we got to experience the DR together and that i've had the opportunity to talk to you and see you grow. i love you so much chica. don't forget about me in college.
Walker:
you really are an awesome kid. and it encourages me to see that guys your age CAN have standards and really CAN follow Christ. you're not perfect, but i love seeing your heart. you're a little brother to me.
Brian:
I've gotten to know you in a lot of odd ways--you've dated my sister and several of my friends. But you know what I love? I still have a very high opinion of you. Your hugs make my day everythime I see you, and I have to say I was genuinely sad when you left. Be safe, my friend.
Carter:
Okay this may be really weird that I'm writing one for you, but I just want you to know that I have a heck of a lot of respect for you and your standards. Keep following Christ. you're one of the coolest kids i know c:
Clark:
Holy crap I miss you so much. You made junior year worthwhile, i promise. You always made my day in some way. I wish we could have stayed as close as we were. please come visit me soon.
Jessica:
you ruined my life for a little bit. But i only say that to say that I know God had a reason for it. And so, for whatever reason it is, I'm thankful you were in my life. really. i wasn't scared so much anymore.
Julie:
sweetheart you have no idea what a blessing it has been to see you grow. like crazy. when i met you in eighth grade i know you saw my heart break for you and zoe and molly, and the three of you are constantly in my prayers. you are just proof that my life is not pointless. I'm so glad God used me in your life and to see your heart now and how you are following Him really almost brings me to tears. i love you darling. stay strong.
Simon:
i watch you. sorry if that's creepy, but i just see so much more in you than what you let people see. i love your heart, how you serve, your voice, your talent, your love for Christ. i wish we could be closer, honestly. geez i sound really creepy. but take it as a compliment, please. i'll be praying for you. you really are an awesome kid.
Mrs. Pullen:
