Yesterday, I had lunch with my high school friend Julie and her four year old daughter Olivia. Julie and I have been friends since the ninth grade. It was so nice catching up with her. We graduated from the same high school. We were in each other's weddings. She has had two children and now I am finally getting close to adopting my daughter. It seems unbelievable that we have know each other for twenty years.And on Saturday, I spoke with my friend Debra who lives in Frederick, Maryland. Debra and I have been friends since the fourth grade. I moved away from Miami, FL to Georgia when I was 13, but through letters, phone calls and e-mail, we have kept in touch for twenty-five years. We have not seen each other in person in fifteen years, but she, her husband David and 1 year old son Spencer are coming for a visit for a few days in March. I can't tell you how excited I am!

7 Kind Words:
What an amazing visit that is going to be.
It is so wonderful to have those friends who know us for years and love us all the same ;0)
I think that it says a lot about a person when they can say that they have maintained friendships for as long as you have. What great fun to spend time with your old friends.
Those are the best friends.
that is so cool that your friend will be coming for a visit soon!
I have been trying to get my best friend from New York to visit forever! We have been BF since 4th grade also.

Ooh, how exciting! I bet your visit will make it seem like no time had past since last seeing each other. Old and true friendships have a way a making that happen.
That is wonderful to reconnect with old friends. What a great visit that will be.
Keep smilin!
It's so great that you still are in contact with them. Have a blast when they come to visit in March!
