When I was twelve, my family and I moved to Oklahoma from Texas. I remember just how it felt leaving my friends behind. It ended up being a great thing, however, because I met my best friend Chelsea (who lived across the street from our new house).

One thing that I’ve learned from moving several times is: to keep an open heart. Life is better when you love with all you have. When you hold back, you miss out.

Ashton, I wish you the very best! You are a beautiful young lady and God has great plans for you… I know you will grow and learn so much on your new adventure.
