Aubrey Schoenekase and Rachel Clifton met in high school. Aubrey Schoenekase and Rachel Clifton met in high school and have been best friends ever since. Their bond is so special that when Schoenekase, who lives in Overland Park, Kan. She was one of the first people to see and hold Sutton, and every week since then, Schoenekase says Clifton has asked when she can come visit.
She is loyal, supportive and a friend that everyone wishes they had. Recently, Clifton reached out to Schoenekase and told her that she had something for Sutton that she thought would make her cry. When she brought it over and Schoenekase opened it, she found a stuffed animal β a lovey. But it wasn't until she read the card that she realized the special meaning behind it.
The stuffed animal had part of Clifton's maid of honor dress β which she wore during Schoenekase's wedding β sewn into it. After receiving the gift, Schoenekase took a video and posted it on TikTok.
She thought it was so special, and hoped sharing it might inspire someone else to do this for a friend, too. Then, the video went viral. And of course, better than that, I love people reiterating how special of a friend Rachel must be, because she is.
I already know that, but I love other people recognizing that too. Once she saw it, she told me how special it was to read people's comments. She said, 'I knew it was special, but it's sweet to see people reacting to it. Schoenekase adds how she gifted Sutton the lovely the day Clifton delivered it.
