Dear Brianne,

It was so fun to do this service for you! It was really exciting to learn new things out of my comfort zone. I realized that you had a great love for music so...... I decided to learn how to play the violin! It was hard sometimes and I would often want to give up, but after a month of practicing I was finally able to play a few simple songs. The song I am playing in the video is "Silent Night" it may not sound  the best, but just know that the song came from my heart!

I also wrote you a short poem

 I love you Brianne!!!

At first we were just cousins, nothing else to say,

But through the years we’ve grown, creating a friendship along the way.

All though you are older and we live far apart, we still keep in contact and remember each other through our heart.

I love when we visit cause we have so much to do, this Christmas I’m sad cause I won’t be able 

to see you.

Soon in the future you will be on your way, being a mother, a wife, and a teacher every day.

I hope you are happy with your family now, it’s tough living in Vegas, cause it’s such a big crowd.

The trials you face are terrible hard, don’t worry, lift your headup, the Lord’s never far.

Remember you’re a daughter of god, so you don’t need to paint an image of something you’re not.

I love you Brianne, and hope you know, that whatever happens,you are strong. I KNOW!

With much love,
Lydia
