I have been dreading today for the past month. I knew the day was coming and I tried to put it out of my mind. I had been living with "Stina" and Kelsey since October and it truely has been a great experience. They were wonderful roommates and we had a blast together. I was really lucky that Stina needed a roommate at the same time I needed somewhere to live!
I am so bad at good bye's and didn't really have it in me to say everything that I was thinking and feeling so I thought I would write a little note to them....
Stina and Kelsey,
What a blessing in my life the both of you have been!!! Stina, I think I was the lucky one when you would go to school in the evenings and Kelsey and I would have time to hang out.
Kelsey, I loved the time that we had to hang out. I loved playing the Sims, Carnival, Super Mario Brothers, Monopoly and all the other games with you. No one ever wants to play boardgames with me and you always up for a good game! Now that your gone I think my myspace will never get changed. I loved the times that we had to just sit and talk. You are a great girl and you were a tremendous help with Thomas and Noelle. Sometimes I would jealous because Thomas would run in the house yelling for you (I will never forget "Where Kelsey") or he would call and ask to talk to you. You guys had a great relationship and it was fun to see it grow. Thomas and Noelle both love you so much! If you ever get a chance you are going to be a wonderful big sister!!!! You are so special and you will be missed. I know that you are going to do really well in Idaho and before long it will feel like home!! We will have to set up a date on the webcam for you and Thomas to talk, I know he will love that.
Stina, You have been such a wonderful and supportive friend. I'm so lucky that you needed a roommate at the same time that I did. We had such a wonderful time together. I will miss our late night trips to the DQ or the grocery store to get cake and ice cream in our PJ's. I also enjoyed our talks that would last to the early morning hours. You have been such a supportive friend that never judges or tells me that I am totally crazy. Together we could write a best selling book with all of our crazy stories from work!! Thank you for all of your help with Thomas and Noelle. They both loved you. I don't know why Noelle always wanted to snuggle with you but not me..... You have gone through a lot the last couple of years and have managed to accomplish so much. You went to school full time, worked full time, was a full time Mom and held a calling at church. Congratulations on your Graduation!!!! You are an amazing person and you have so much more to accomplish. I know good things are coming your way!!! Thank You again for being the example that I needed and always having a smile on your face!!! You are a true friend and you are really going to be missed!!!!
I know this move has been difficult for both of you to deal with and there are a lot of things that both of you are scared about but you both a very strong and you will be just fine!!! You have both accomplished so much and Matt and his family are so lucky to have you in their lives.
Matt.... you are a very lucky man to have both Stina and Kelsey in your life and I hope you take good care of them!!!! Kelsey, good luck to you in 7th grade and Stina good luck with the job hunt.
I love you both!!!
