OUR FRIENDSHIP
By: Daniel J. Maag
Our friendship happened instantly,
We met and something clicked;
Of all the people that I met,
Ana, you were the one I picked.
Our friendship happened easily,
We have so much to share;
It seems like we were already
A team, a perfect pair.
Our friendship started on BodyProud
Was it chance or maybe fate
Two strangers meeting online
Fast becoming great mates.
Our friendship happened caringly,
We respected one another;
Affection shown by both of us,
A kinship like no other.
xoxo

Ana
You're the beauty of the stars
And the beauty of a rose
From your cute squinty smile
To your little button nose
No figure on earth
Would dare challenge you
Your beauty is untarnished
From my point of view
Long from now when you go to heaven
All the angels will sing your name
Wishing every second of the day
That they could look the same
No artist could capture
Your beauty or your grace
Your gorgeous flowing locks
And your stunningly beautiful face
So when you see a rose
Or gaze upon the stars
You'll know I see your beauty
The most beautiful by far

Not Here Anymore said… - Hi honey, sorry for the delayed response, been very busy and haven't been on here much. Thanks for the kind words. I hear you on the stress. Definitely get affected by it myself and I'm trying to keep my levels low but it can be difficult with work sometimes. Are you going to do the April 18th comp? Haven't seen you at the gym in a bit - my schedule has changed so I'm training at a different time. Are you going to do the Worlds in Montreal? A bunch of girls from the gym are going to come down with me for it. It should be fun and would be awesome if we were both competing :)
It's in 9 weeks. I hope I'm ready. My trainer says I will be so I'm trusting in him and I'm just going to work my ass off. It's go time :)

DO YOU REMEMBER THOSE SIMPLE DAYS
KIDS IN A CLASSROOM SHARING A WISH
"WILL YOU BE MINE" THIS VALENTINE
WILL DAN GET THAT VALENTINE KISS
THOSE DAYS ARE LONG GONE NOW
BUT A VALENTINE IS STILL VARY SWEET
TO HAVE THAT ONE SPECIAL GIRL
SAY "YES" TO YOU - WOULD BE A TREAT
YOU ARE TRULY BEAUTIFUL WOMAN
AND YOU MUST HAVE MANY MEN
THAT WANT YOU TO BE THEIR VALENTINE
WILL YOU SAY YES TO ALL OR NO OF THEM
I'M NOT IN SCHOOL ANYMORE
AND THOSE TIMES ARE IN THE PAST
BUT I STILL WANT TO BE YOUR VALENTINE
IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY ANA
XOXO
