Random Letters

I've done this before on here. I like doing it. I like writing random little things I'm thinking about and not saying it's who it's meant for. Some are obvious, some are not. It's a great way for me to get my feelings out. So here it is again. Eleven things I wanna say to Eleven different people right now.

One:
I write almost every time to you.
I think you're an amazing person.
Seriously one of the best I've ever met.
And I kick myself repeatedly for not finding a way
to make you one of my best friends.
You inspire me daily.

Two: 
You've hurt me before.
And then you hurt him and my family.
I don't believe you and will struggle to find a way to ever do so again.
It's not that I won't forgive you, I have a hard time holding grudges,
it's a waste of my time to hate people.
But just know, I really don't like you.
And I hope so much, that you never hurt him like that again.

Three:
I'm grateful to have a friend like you.
someone that I can talk to about absolutely everything.
Someone who is always there to hang around with when no
one else is.
You're a really good friend and I think we need to move in together.

Four:
There's a whole group of you,
you choose me to capture moments in your life.
I'm grateful you chose me. 
I love turning your faces into a work of art for your walls.

Five:
I wish things were different.
I wish I knew how to make them different between us.

Six.
It's hard for me to watch your life go on without me.

Seven:
Thank you for being amazing and being there for me when I have
no where to go. 
For loving me despite you disagreeing with how my life is going.
I'm grateful I can always come home.

Eight:
You are a bunch of cool people. 
I think I'm going to enjoy this a lot more than I thought.

Nine:
Why did you leave such an imprint on my life?
You are not an easy person to forget.

Ten:
You two make me feel so good about myself.
You see something in me that I just don't see.
I love you both.
You're both amazing women!
Thank you for always reminding me of my worth! 

Eleven: 
I had one for you but then ran out of room. 
So now I'm adding it.
I think you're pretty cool.
You make an amazing second shooter and a pretty good friend too.
Joseph sure thinks you and Brady are cool too!

Six!

A letter to Joseph:

Dear Joseph,
You're six! Six!!
When I held you as a 'little' baby,
 
 I couldn't picture this day, and yet it came so fast.
You don't believe you're "Real Six" yet.
In your mind, you thought you were going to noticably
grow bigger over night. But you didn't and you don't believe
me when I tell you that you were growing into six all year.
So you tell me often " I'll do that when I'm real six"
"I'm not really six yet Mommy, because I didn't grow bigger,
I'll be real six in a little while".
You sure look "Real Six" to me little man.
You compliment me every single morning and all day long:
"Mommy, I love waking up to see your face"
"Ohhh Mommy, you look so beautiful today"
"When I have a son, he's going to love you, because I love you"
"You're the cutest and sweetest mommy in the whole world"
"You're the sweetest Mommy because you say sweet words to me all day long"

You're the sweetest boy and kid I've ever come across, and I only pray that stays with you
as you grow into a big kid, and then a teenager and then of course an adult.
You make my days brighter, and make it so much easier to get through crappy situations.

Yesterday when I was crying about our life situation changing again,
you said in all the wisdom a six year old could have
"Mommy, sometimes life is hard and sometimes there isn't enough money,
and so you have to live with your parents so you can save."
You've gone through so much in your life already and yet you're still so sweet and postive.
You're always there to give me hugs when I'm crying and to tell me that everything will be
alright. And you know what, you're always right.
I'm go glad that Omi & Opa could take us to Florida.



You needed that more than any of us.
Time to be a kid, to have fun, to play and to experience the world.
You loved it. You love scary rides. You're always looking for adventure.



 

You're my best friend Joseph and I don't know what I would do without you!
Love,
Mommy
