The most beautiful discovery true friends make...

...is that they can grow separately without growing apart.

Today I am grateful for my friends.

Especially the ones in the above picture.

I have had friends come and go in my life

but EJ, Tab, and Liz are my "forever friends."

The friendship we share is one that spans

the miles between us and reaches beyond time and distance.

Many would find themself fortunate to have

ONE, good, solid friend; but God has blessed me with THREE!

Is everything always hunky-dory and smooth sailing?

No, but that is what makes our friendship special.

That is what true friendship consists of.

Giving of yourself entirely and risking getting hurt,

but knowing that if you want to have a friend you must be one.

We are living our own lives, making our places in the world,

and still managing to keep in touch.

So, today I want to publicly express my gratitude

to the dearest friends in the world...

Love and miss you all!
