Here is the letter to me:
Joslyn,
If there is only one thing that you remember please let it be that you know you are loved. There will be times when you feel like you are alone, but you arent. There are people you havent even met yet that love you and are praying for you. Spend more time with your Grandpa and dont make fun of the stories he tells you (even if youve heard it 10 times before). When he is gone you will wish you could hear it just one more time. A lot of responsibility will be thrust on you as soon as your graduate from highschool. Take it in stride, but dont forget to have fun too, Stay strong in your
faith . Know that God has GREAT plans for you and He wants to give you an abundace of blessings. Youll have your heart broken, fall in love and have it broken again, trust your heart and know that Gods plan and timing are is worth the wait. You will end up with the love of your life. Pay attention in class and read your books some day you will hold peoples lives in your hand. Pray everyday and trust in the Lord and His plan for you, you will be a blessed woman.
