So Very Thankful

I just spent four days with two amazing ladies and friends. I am so grateful for their friendship that began long ago...Mendy and I have known one another since preschool; Kelly and I since fifth grade. These are lifelong friendships that I feel are so rare these days. Although we parted ways physically after high school attending different universities, achieving different dreams and settling down (well, sort of) at different points in this country, we have always been there for one another. From traveling to have weekends together to being support for break-ups, big job decisions and even those fun decisions of what to wear and where to eat! We take comfort in knowing that in less than two years we will all live within 3 hours of one another, instead of days. Nothing was different this weekend as we enjoyed a hike in the Torrey Pines Reserve, good food and conversation at various locales, shopping and laughing and more shopping and laughing, and sharing moments with my family. I can hardly wait to be close to these ladies and their families, and for the reality that we can get together so much more and raise our families together.
