Life as Thank You 30

Dear Laura

We had the privilege of raising our children together. We lived in the same neighborhood – even next door for a season – and I am grateful for those memories.  In 2016 I am writing thank you notes each week to express my gratitude. In honor of your birthday, I can’t stop thinking about you anyway so I thought I would share with you how much I love you and thank God for you.

Thank you for your creative and delicious ability in the kitchen that you so generously shared. Clayton still loves Ody’s taco rice. We did so many fun things together that it is difficult to just mention a few when I am so thankful for so many. I have learned a lot from you and I wish we lived closer. I loved how we went to Woodman’s late at night and how we planned so many fun things for our kids together. Thank you for your persistence in keeping our friendship alive. Thank you for the many great coffee klatches and visits. I do not think I would have made it in Illinois if I had not met you and the rest of our neighborhood.

May God continue to provide for you and generously bless you. I love you Laura!
