Oh Emily... where do I begin?
You have never been afraid to be who you are, regardless of anyone else... you have always been you, without apology and with courage You are loyal and honest, and I know I can talk to you about anything, at any time and not worry about judgment. I'm stealing yours, we don't need to speak to voice our thoughts, they work on our 20 years of communication. Like at the Swamp :) I love that I know you know what I'm thinking. Even if it's totally snarky! You are not afraid to tell the truth, or ask the hard questions, or challenge me, or anyone, to really think about what they are asking your advice on. You are consistent, in a good way. You don't make impulse decisions, you stick with the courses you choose in life, and you are a solid presence in my life even when we don't talk every day You teach me things. A lot of things, constantly... just parts of life, you have taught me like a true sister for years and years, all the things that I would have never learned otherwise. You are chasing your dreams with education, which I am jealous of! You have chosen something you are passionate about, and you are sticking with it, and looking at all the options and taking it seriously to make sure you choose something you will want to pursue, rather than just settling for where you are... you are constantly pushing yourself to grow. You love. As simple as that.
I really wanted to steal what you wrote for me :) Books!! Absolutely books.
And every other inside joke, and for every tear we've cried respectively, growing up, for flirting in our PE clothes, for for all the laughter and the memories and the words spoken, and unspoken... for the heartbreak, and the families and our childhood homes and trampolines and snow forts and matching nightgowns and parkay and chocolate chip cookies and vomit and shoes and good and bad and Milo and Otis and the kidlet and art and Sex and the City and Tori Amos and the ocean and fat books and Godiva and everything else there ever was and will be... I love you... because you have been so so much a part of who I am, and who I always was.
