I love the family of colors note card!

I really need to write a letter to my bestie Ruth. She lives in Tenn. and I live in Al. We do our best to get together at least twice a year but it’s honestly just not enough. We are more like sisters! She has an older brother and I have a younger one. We have even been told countless
times that we look like sisters. We agree! Anyhow, she means the world to me and would love to get an actual letter. We do our best to keep in touch but she works full time and I’m a full time SAHM with 4 kids. 12yo dd & almost 3yo triplets She is the one who introduced me to my darling husband and who knew we would be perfect together! (we are!) She also prayed with me for a baby through 12 years of infertility. I have 4 adopted children and she has been there for each one. They adore her and call her Auntie Roo (12yo) and Auntie Ruah (trips)! We had lost touch right before my oldest adoption and I called to let her know and it was as if those 4 years never passed. She came down and spent the weekend with us when we brought her home from the airport. (adopted from Bolivia) She also came down and spent 2 weeks with me when the triplets were adopted. 14 days with me, 3 preemies eating with around the clock care! She was right there, right beside me, helping me every way she could! (we call it the true test of any friendship and we passed with flying colors!)She is the bestest friend a girl could ever have and I love her dearly! We met in 9th grade @ 15yo and have been friends ever since. We are now about to turn 34yo and neither of us have yet to give birth. It’s our dream to have babies at the same time. Only God knows if that will happen. We share the desire to live a life pleasing to God and we know we will be friends for a lifetime! I sure hope you pick me so that I could surprise her with an amazing letter, telling her how much she means to me and how much I appreciate her.
Thanks!

I’m glad to see that we all have someone we NEED to write to. The person I need to write to is the girl who was my maid-of-honor. I’ve never been one to keep tons of female friends, and she was my closest, best friend ever. When I tell stories about her “My best friend…” always precedes her name. But we haven’t spoken since the Christmas after my wedding, in 2002 We didn’t have a fight, we just started missing each other. We live 500 miles away, and she got a new boyfriend, and I had a husband and 2 kids. I would call and leave message after message for her. Eventually, I stopped calling.

My husband thinks that it’s his fault, because he’s kinda conservative about his ideals and her boyfriend was very liberal. Sometimes I think we were still just too “small town” for her. I know we were in different places in our lives. It hurts me so much to think of how close we were, and how I still hold this empty place in my heart for her. The first time I heard she came home to visit and didn’t call me, I was heart broken. Then I got mad, and tried even less to get ahold of her.

I’ve heard over the last year that she’s now single again, and on some pretty rough times. Still trying to find herself, and looking in a lot of the wrong places. Now add an unknown heart problem to that, and I just want to run to her with open arms and tell her that I miss her and still love her and want to be there for her. But it’s so hard to get over almost 6 years of hurt feelings and making up reasons why in your head.

That’s who I need to write to. An email wouldn’t cut it, it’s time to send a letter. You never quite find someone you’re as close to as your first really real best friend. It’s like losing a sister, only she didn’t try to steal your clothes when you were a kid.

OK, I am one of 6 children. We are all within 8 years of eachother. I need these notecards because I am estranged from one sibling. My younger sister (she is the baby and I am #3) and I shared a room from the time she was born until I was a Sophomore in HS. We were very close. When she graduated from HS she moved to NM where I lived with my Exhusband. She even lived with us. Well as my marriage went to the crapper we had a falling out. She was involved with my Ex and took his side. She made my life hell during that time. I vowed to never speek to her and i have not since 2003.

I think this noteset would be a way to try and straighten things up a bit. I doubt we will ever be close again, but we need to straighten out the inconsistencies.

I need these note cards to send thank yous to all of the ladies at my church who help in our church nursery. I am the Chairperson of our Nursery Committee and I can’t thank these ladies enough! LOVE this Web site. Since I am a teacher I always love notecards!
