I am so very thankful for the people in my life who are always there for me: my family and best friends. My parents have provided me with so much opportunity and love as they've raised me. My sister has (sometimes forcibly) helped me learn and mature as we've grown up together. Tyler has been my best friend since the second grade and through him moving to Idaho. He has influenced me in so many ways that I could not even imagine my life without him. Bryce has been my best friend since the sixth grade, and she is just the best friend a girl could ask for.
I am also very thankful for books because they have taught me so much that I would never have learned. I can go on adventures in far off times and places or even in the imaginations of other people without ever leaving my house. They have been such an integral part of my life that I don't know what I would do without them.
