18 years ago, someone very special was brought into this earth. Her name is Ciara Hernandez. I have known her my whole life, and I call her my best friend. She deals with my quirkiness and weirdness. She has been there for me through thick and thin—to lean on in bad times and to laugh and make silly jokes with in the good times. We became close because we were both outcasts, shy, and without many friends. As we got to know each other, something just clicked. We are so different and yet, somehow, we are able to come together and have the most wonderful times. We have made some amazing and unforgettable memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life.

To My Best Friend:
We have our serious moments, our disagreements, we bite each other, lick each other’s faces, laugh together, cry together, creep people out together, sleep together [;)], and so much more. I believe true friendship is having the ability to be YOU with that friend, without having to hide who you really are and expressing exactly how you think and feel without the fear of being judged. And I have that with you. You are my true friend. Even though we haven’t been close for that many years, I will always trust you with my entire life. You were the first person I told my secrets to. You were the first person I trusted. Thank you for being the most amazing friend a girl could ask for. You have become my sister. You are absolutely amazing and beautiful and I love you with all of my heart and I cannot imagine my life without you.
I hope you have a wonderful birthday. :)
Love,
Natali
