My Go To Girl.

I met Brittany at Eisenhower Middle School about 1996.  We were in 7th grade.  We had a small group of girls that were pretty much inseparable.  After 8th grade I moved to Phoenix with my mom.  She was my only friend who came to visit me a few times a year (yes, even during the wretched hot summers).  Brittany has been there for me in many times of despair.  She was one of the first people I called when my mom and I were in the boating accident.  She immediately hopped on a plane and came to Phx to be with me.  
Another time that stands out in my mind is when my niece Addison went to Denver Children's Hospital for a simple procedure that took a huge turn for the worse.  Addie was on life support and we thought we were going to loose her.  Britt talked to me a few times on the phone and gave me some of the best advice, but most importantly she just listened.

She has always been an amazing listener, gives great advice, and has faith and spirituality that is very comforting.  As we all know, friends come and go throughout our lives but there are a few that remain apart of your heart forever.  That's Britt.  My second Maid of Honor.

"Thank you Britt for everything.  I can only hope that I am here for you like you have been here for me throughout all these years."
