Sometimes you just need a visit from your very best friend. You don't realize how much you need it until you are together again. Catching up. Reminiscing. Crying. Sharing. Being silly. All of that.
You eat lunch without kids interrupting you. You sit for hours and laugh. You tell old stories again and again - reminding each other of all the fun you have had over the years. You want to share her with your new favorite friends and hope they love her just as much. Of course, they do.
Your face eventually hurts from smiling. You share good wine and food. You plan the next time you will see each other and put it on the calendar. You are filled up again. You are energized. You are loved in a way that is so very different than the love you receive from your spouse, your child or your blood-relations.
Thank you best friend for making the time to visit me at the end of my 39th year. You are the best. I even know what you're thinking now...
that's what she said! Until next time...
