i love you and i'm in shock.
just yesterday we were kindergartners playing around at your house.
or my house. sleepovers every weekend.. our crazy game on my playground.
you were my first best friend and you still are. nothing will ever change that.
i remember "playing" the piano with you and eating at my house until we threw up. i remember jake ... Read Morelooking up my mom's dress and us laughing at him, since my mom hated dogs. i remember carpools and brownies and parties and ice skating..
i miss you and i love you.
my whole family misses you.
and we all love you. forever. ♥

"When I must leave you for a little while, please do not grieve and shed wild tears, and hug your sorrow through the years. But start out bravely with a gallant smile; and for my sake and in my name, live on and do all things the same. Feed not your loneliness on empty days, but fill each waking hour in useful ways. Reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer and I in turn will comfort you and hold you near. And never, never be afraid to die, for I am waiting for you in the sky." - Anonymous
