I can’t quite express just how much all of your birthday wishes meant to me today. I cherished each and every one of them, and want you all to know how very much I appreciate each of you taking a little time out of your day to think of me.
In my heart, you will always be a true sister to me first and foremost, and then a friend second. Our bond has grown so strong that to me, you are like family.
May you have a wonderful birthday today, my dearest.
