February 25, 2011- Ben Burnley

Oh Ben, I guess our story begins way back in seventh grade Sunday school when my mom was sure we would get married and you wore a clip-on tie. It's funny to look at how much we both have changed, but it's even funnier to look at you now and know that you would probably still wear a clip-on tie if you had one...


Ben is one of the most genuinely kind people I have ever known. Not just in the polite, "holding the door open" sense but in the sense that I know I am truly cared about. Everything Ben does has well thought out reasoning behind it. We joke about how over thinking gets him into trouble, whereas my trouble often comes from not thinking enough. I think though that his over thinking makes him much more attentive and appreciative for who people truly are. He listens when you talk and remembers when you tell him something, regardless of it's importance. Ben, I don't know how you managed to put up with me through high school, but  am so thankful that you never gave up on me. Never think that your love for others goes unnoticed, and never forget that the most important relationship you could have, you are already in. Thank you for being such an encouraging friend, I love you forever.


2 Thessalonians 3:5
"May the Lord lead your hearts into a full understanding and expression of the love of God and the patient endurance that comes from Christ."


P.S. Thank you for my package, sorry I am awful at time management and haven't written you back! Be expecting a letter within the next year or so.
