I hung you on my tree this year, remembering you from last Christmas. You have so much meaning and so many memories, that I hold closest to my heart. A gift you entered into my life, and a treasure you will always remain. I hear laughter when I look at you, and long talks on the phone. When I read you words "hope," I'm reminded of encouraging words. I know your just an ornament, but you represent so much more. A tear shed, a hug when needed, just the right words, or the hard words I needed to hear most, a genuine heart, a giver, an encourager, a good listener, a support team, an inside joke, a blessing, and most importantly my dearest friend. You hold memories, and the "hope" of more to come. Every year as I hang you on my tree, I'll always remember your one of the greatest gifts I've ever received, because you represent the greatest and most treasured friendship God has ever brought into my life.

i don't think i can see through tears enough to respond to this. you know that same ornament hangs on my tree and says the same wonderful things to me about you. last year was amazing, but i know that what's to come is only better.
we both hold tight to that "hope" and that's what keeps us bonded together. you are more than a gift to me, in so many ways you're a miracle- a friend i never thought i could have, one who has helped me to open my heart in a way i didn't think i ever could.
this journey has already had so many milestones- even that first "fight" last year about this time. every step we walk together is an honor, a blessing and i never take it for granted. whatever season, whatever situation, i know that i can always call you friend. and, that is a gift i can never say thank you enough for.
ok, my response is longer than the post. sorry i'm so wordy! by the way, i love you.
