I've known Amanda for a very, very long time. She's not just my best friend, she's like my sister. We met on the first day of first grade, instantly bonding over the hairstyle misfortune of another classmate. {that's a story in and of itself} We just got each other instantly. In fifth
grade, she moved away, but somehow we managed to stay the best of friends.
I guess that's just what happens when you find someone who's soul you connect with. Amanda has been there for me through everything, always just a phone call away.
It's amazing to me that we were able to
stay such good friends as kids without cell phones and internet. We did it the old fashioned
way: 15 minute allotted increments of long distance time, letters, and summertime visits.
I don't know what I would have done through the years without you, Amanda. Thanks for being my best friend for 23 years! I love you girlie!
I wanted to make a list of all the things I love about you, but that list would just be too long.
We've got so many memories that I don't even know where to begin. I'll just say it like this:
I love you cause you're you. Happy birthday! ~jen
