No real confession to tell, just a talk about friends:)

While visiting family and friends in Delaware for the week, I made plans with an old friend in Pennsylvania. We always find it hard to make plans because between the 5 of our kids something always comes up with at least one of them. While we have good intentions to visit and spend time, rarely do we ever follow through... You would think this would make us distant with each other, not really being together or even talking as often as "friends" should.

That's not the case though, when we get together we have the most fun! We talk, we laugh, we yell at our kids, we let them swap sippy cups and juice boxes... It's just comfortable to be ourselves with each other, not filtering what we say or how we react, never feeling judged, no apologies, just being real. We have been friends since elementary school, and while we spent years apart not talking, once we reconnected it was kind of like we were just in elementary school!

Now I can't disclose the contents of our conversations, but I can say that I think we might possibly have the same brain. Laughing while finishing the obnoxious sentence the other started. What a great feeling to know that you're not the only crazy person... yes, if you're reading this I called you crazy!

Life brings us all different types of friends, some for a short period of time, others for life. The ones that come and go, you just learn to enjoy them while they are there and move on when it's time. The ones that are forever, while you may not talk as often, you just know that they will always be there, that you won't have to move on when it's time. Because no matter, where you go or how far you are, or how long it's been, you will always call them friend.

For me friday was and awesome day, I got to spend the day with 2 lifetime friends... So thankful I will always be able to call them friend, no matter where we go, how far apart we are, or how long it's been.

Here are two of them, taking turns with a juice box that didn't belong to either of them.
