Dear Liz

Dear Liz,
Well it's Christmas eve and almost Christmas day where you are right now. I hope you're all snuggled up with your dog and having a warm cup of cider or something with your mother. I'm sure you'll have a great time at home just relaxing and getting away from St. John's weather and life. Hopefully that ice storm didn't affect you too much and that you still have power for Christmas!
I'm currently watching a documentary with my brother-in-law and father about volcanoes...it's...really neat actually. I've been enjoying my time home with my dog and family. I can't wait to go home to St. John's though. Being home is nice, but I do miss my life in Newfoundland. I can say I'll miss it whenever I end up leaving.
I'm so thankful that God put you in my life. As difficult as the two years were living in that house, I'm so glad I lived in it with you. You kept me sane and are one of the only people I actually was okay living with. I'm also glad that I was able to make such a good friend that I can go to with any problem or just call to go for coffee or read at a coffee shop. You're the only person I've ever been able to study with actually, so you should be proud haha.
I can't believe how much you've been through Liz. You're one of the strongest people I know and I hope God has a lot of good stored up in your future. I know it may get hard sometimes, but you need to just keep pushing on like you do and know that you have people around you to support you. I'm one of those people. I will be there whenever you need it. I may not have the answers or know exactly what to do, but I can just be there for you anytime you need. Going through what I am right now with my health, I look at what you've gone through and realize that I can be strong. I realize that yes school takes a long time, but it's worth it if you enjoy it. You're so strong Liz and I believe in anything you want to do.
I hope you have an amazing Christmas and holiday.
Love you.
Sincerely,
Yvette
