Some people come into your life and simply become part of it.
She has seen me excited, overwhelmed, distracted, determined, exhausted, and running in twelve different directions at once. She has listened to a thousand ideas, followed me on countless adventures, helped me dig through more old stuff than either of us could ever count, and somehow manages to keep up with me through all of it.
She knows my chaos. She knows my heart. And she loves me through both.
I have a tendency to get completely wrapped up in whatever is in front of me, and lately there’s been a lot in front of me. But no matter how busy life gets, I never want her to forget just how important she is to me.
There’s something really special about having a friend you can just do life with — the ordinary days, the crazy days, the treasure hunts, the long conversations, the hard moments, and all those memories you don’t even realize you’re making at the time.
She puts up with my squirrel brain, my big ideas, my sudden change of plans, and all the “WAIT! I just thought of something!” moments. And somehow, she’s still willing to get in the car with me. ❤️
I know I can be a lot. And I also know how lucky I am to have someone who never makes me feel like I am.
I hope she knows how much I love and appreciate her, even when I forget to slow down long enough to say it.
Some of the best things I’ve ever found weren’t vintage at all. ❤️
