God knows how much I miss you!..

Since we moved last summer all my stuff were here and there. And today I have come upon a box of my books and I found a stash of all cards that were given to me at one time or another. After two hours of reading them all and, I have to confess, a few tears I decided to share my treasure with you and to tell all of you whom I cannot see right now in person that I love and miss you very much.

Here is the whole bunch of them. Some of them are handmade! Like the card that is on top with ribbon, it's from Judy, our family friend.

This handmade card is from Naomi, another good family friend, for my 16th birthday.

My parents gave me this card for the St. Val's Day. 

Hey! And this card is from ESL (program in Rochester High School avaliable for foreign students). It is a "farewell" card. Teachers of the ESL each year make cards in names of all students form the program who are either leaving school or graduating so all the friends could sign it and wish them luck. This is my 2009 card - I didn't know if I was leaving or not so the teachers made a card for me just in case. It was very nice. So thank You so very much Ms. Ann Marie Hill, Carol Butorac, Ann Knoll, and Shirley Roth.

But since I didn't go that year next year I was graduating and so I recieved another card))

Yeeah... that's were tears came...

My mum made this card for my graduation!

And that card is from a very special friend, Mariam. Girl, I miss you!

Another card from another special friend, Emma. Emma you are a sweet girl, I hope you are doing fine.

Oh, and this card is from my favourite art teacher Mrs. Beth Monroe! Thank you so much , Mrs. M. for what you had given me!

Inside the card was a good luck Art Angel from The Detroit Institute of Art. I have it now as a good luck charm with me.

And Mrs. Monroe, at the graduation ceremony I meant to give a card but there were so many people that I could not find you in the crowd for the second time. I still have that card!!! I hope I will be able to give it to you some day! 

Lo&Ki
