Good Friends

Good friends, those that become your best friends, are one of the most precious things in life. Good friends are there for you when you need them the most, they listen, they support you, they give you strength when you need it. Life shared with a really good friend is like a great novel that you just want to read over and over again skipping ahead to the good parts, but realizing that the sad or rough parts are necessary for the story being written. Good friends, like really great novels, aren't always found easily. A good friend is one you share a special bond with and is willing to work to maintain it.

Watching my children grow and their individual personalities shine through, gives me hope that they will grow into people that will be able to have what I've been blessed to know. I have been blessed to know what it is like to have numerous friends in my life and more than my fair share of really good friends! Big Boy and Boopy have already found special friends to share a bond with. I truly hope that life leads them in a way that these childhood friendships can grow and mature into really good friends and that they can share a history together that can write an award winning novel!


I do know that so far they've learned, what it's like to laugh with a friend.

They're learning what it means to share with a friend.

They've learned that just hanging out and enjoying each other's company can be fun.

They've learned that friends will let you be silly by sticking out your tongue at them, splash them in pools and they will still love you.


They are learning that a good friend will take you by the hand and walk with you through life.

*Thank you to ALL my GOOD friends for all your help and thoughts the past 3 months. That includes family, who although may be related are still GOOD friends!
