Bmac! Let's recount the day we met: you hated me because I was "stealing" your best friend Bailey, you missed the bus and used me for a ride home since I was the only one in our grade who drove. Great way to start a friendship... Honestly though, I couldn't have planned meeting you any more perfectly. We somehow found something in common and you quickly gave up the bus rides home for a ride in the front seat of Pablo. Despite our pithy and shallow conversations, our friendship grew to much more after a season of tough times and distance. We came to know our incredible Savior and our lives were forever changed.
If I could describe Bmac in one word, it would be joy. She is ABSOLUTELY ridiculous and never ceases to make you laugh, even if she isn't trying to. I love her sassy personality and silly jokes that sometimes only crack herself up. Her spirit is untouchable and when she sets her mind to doing something, she does it. Whether it was Tuesday morning pancakes that we brought to our teacher instead of taking our final or swinging by McDonald's after she got her braces off, Bmac and I have had some unbelievable times together. She is considerate and would do anything for others, regardless of the request. Her friendships are deep and nothing means more to her then sticking up for them and looking out for them in the darkest of times.
The best quality I have learned from Bmac is to never give up on others. Sometimes I don't understand why she does things she does for others, but it makes since to her and it makes her friends feel so loved and important that it doesn't matter who it makes since to. She is beyond caring and it is inspiring to see how she loves her friends. I admire her spirit for the Lord and the excitement she finds in His grace and forgiveness. Bmac, you have been a very close friend of mine for a long time, know that I ill never give up on you and that I will always love you for exactly who God made you to be. Your light is contagious, never forget how much you are adored by your Savior and how jealous He is for you. I love you forever.
1 John 4:11-12
"Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other. No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us."
p.s. don't kill me for putting this picture up. It's all out of love.
