Happy Valentines Day.

Today is Valentines Day. Today is the one day per year that is so commercialized that it's almost comical to see what people purchase for each other.  Today is that day our heart swells just a little bit more as we look at all we have been blessed with and those people who mean something special.

I ran across this blog A Dollop Of My Life and she's hosting a Love Letter Link up. She's encouraging readers to link up and write a love letter to someone who has an impact in their life; husband, kids, mom, dad, etc.

I'm going to write a letter to join in, however, I'm not writing to any of those above mentioned people. Instead, I'm going to write a love letter to my dear friend who, unknowingly, I'm sure will never understand the impact she has on my life.

To my sweetest friend,

        Back then I honestly, just didn't care for people not in my comfort zone. Then I got married and started my own family, stepped outside my comfort zone, and made myself talk to you. As we got to know each other, I realized we had alot in common. Our common goals of family, our goals of bettering ourselves in Christ and as wives. Then I experienced a loss you didn't know how to help me through and we lost touch. Catching up to a couple of years back, I heard the  most wonderful news that you were expecting and I was so excited for your new family.  We reconnected through a social website and I can say truly, without a doubt, You are one of my most favorite people ever. We may not speak often but when we do, our conversations have so much meaning and are so very special to me. We're at similar places in our lives because over the course of the last year, we've both experienced losses that neither expected to ever face again. Here I am, almost 10 months later, finally coming to term with my situation and my heart was broken recently when I found out that you, also, just experienced the same tragedy. But we're both moving on, we're both searching for peace,  we're growing in our relationship with our husband's, our children and most importantly, Christ. Even if our paths never cross again, if we're not in the same place at the same time again, I want you to know you hold a special part in my heart. Thank you for being my friend.
