One of my very best friends called last night and we talked for 1 1/2 hours. You have to understand we have been friends for a very long time and each time we call each other we have lots to get caught up on. We attended K-12 grades. Staying overnight at each others house, had many classes together, went to many HS football and basketball games and shopped.
Then we both got married and started our family. Margaret moved away but we have always kept in touch by email, phone and cards. Denny and I have visited Margaret and Ben as they have come to our house over the years.
Now we each have grandkids to brag on. We have cried together and laughed until we cried.
Over the years we have exchanged recipes, knitting projects and talked about the books we've read.
Take a moment to imagine what life would be like with out your friend. We take our friends forgranted sometimes but to have a friend is to have everything. What a great friend Margaret is!

What a great reminder to keep in touch with our friends. We shouldn't take them for granted but remember to cherish each one who comes into our life.

What a great post! You're so right about good friends, where would we be without them? I'm so happy to have friends that I have known (and who have known me) since childhood...such a good feeling. :)
Love, Lisa
