We've been friends since the 6
th grade...yes, since we were 11 years old.
My years at Cumberland Christian School were, hands down, the happiest of my youth, and MARY was a BIG part of that!
Here we are at the tender age of 18...We really thought we had life figured out.
Full of hopes and dreams, for sure.
Funny.
We haven't seen each other for over 11 years, right after our oldest boys were born...and time marched on...
...Then along came FACEBOOK!
Need I say more?!
And here we are, just a breath away from our 40's!!!!
How in the WORLD is this possible!?!?
Recently, we purposely planned to both be in our hometown at the same time...FINALLY!
I can't describe how great it felt to get together. I felt rejuvenated, for sure.
It was almost as if time stood still; time was not an issue---
just FRIENDSHIP.
And I enjoyed comparing notes, catching up and OF COURSE, reminiscing about earlier years.
We cried tears from serious LAUGHTER, and even posed as the ROCK STARS that we are!
(I decided NOT to post THOSE pictures.)
Furthermore, can anyone else describe how cool it was to see our kids playing together,
laughing and having a good time?
Too cool.
(Our oldest boys are 11...just like we were when we first met...)
In any case, if anyone ever doubts it, here's a reminder to you all
(and the only reason I like Facebook):
I LOVE MY FRIENDS!!!!!!!!!
