Letter to me

Hey, it's me...us...you?? You should be about 30 right now, hopefully you are married and have a couple of kids by now. Remember that was the plan? Have kids when you were still young so that when the children grow up you will still be able to keep up with them? Even though you were 17 years old when you wrote this you really wanted to have a family. Don't forget about everything you've gone through, all the troubling times were there to test you, to make sure you were strong enough to handle things on your own. I hope that you are handling things nicely I know how scared you probably were. I also hope that we went to college or some kind of school, and that we have a good job that we are happy with. That was the one thing we were worried about most, do you remember? Everyone always asking you what you were going to do after school but having no clue how to answer. Always worrying that you wouldn't find the job that you really loved. I hope that we found it I hope that all our dreams about meeting people, not being so shy, and finding a good guy that would treat you and your family right. I only wish that you could send me a letter telling me how things would turn out for me. To tell me what our husband looks like how many children we have or are planing to have, and who our friends are or still are. If you lost touch with your high school friends I advise you to call at least one of them and read them this letter, no matter the circumstances I hope you haven't lost sight of who we are.

Take care of us and don't ever forget who you really are
