I have a dear friend...

Her name is Tessa K. Hutt. She's leaving on Sunday. Potentially forever. First step Utah... Next step New Zealand for her mission.. and then the rest of her life. And of course I'll be on my way with mine. But let me tell you, she is one of those quality top-notch people. You want to be around her. Her happiness and laugh are infectious. There have been the best evenings spent coming back from an event and sitting in her car for a couple hours just talking. Hashing out life and crap going on. Talking in the most horrendous British (?) accents that could ever be imagined.. We've gone to festivals and got lost on various adventures. I was her buddy when she was going to the temple every week.

We've established that she's like a fine wine, only getting better with time. (But really what would we know about that...) There have been nights that I've stayed up to all hours just talking to her. I've never regretted the exhaustion at work the next day. She are so much alike and distinct opposites.
(This was pointed out to us when we had our aura read at the frozen custard place up the street... )

She's been a solid friend, a source of sanity in dark times, and her friendship has meant the world. She seems to think that not much will change with her departure. There is no one like her. I will miss her terribly, but I'm grateful for those moments..
