Best Friends

Hi everyone! It has been a while since I last blogged. I have been so busy with my school and the kids school that I just have not made the time. I was of course on my favorite cooking site this morning and there was a topic about best friends. It made me lonely thinking about those women out there that had best friends. Friends they could call up and chat with for hours if they wanted to. Friends that they could meet with to have coffee with or a lunch date or even a dinner date. Someone that no matter what could and would be there for you. I don't really have a true best friend. I have a good friend that I think in my heart would do all of the above if she could...so maybe that is a best friend? I have lots of "aquaintances" through the kids school, but I don't see them outside of that area so they really would not be catagorized as "friend". There are a couple I would love to have as friends, but I am just not sure how to make that happen! We need a handbook!!!

The definition of friend at dictionary.com is: a person attached to another by feelings of affection or personal regard. When I looked up "best friend I was directed to boon companion and the definition for it is: an intimate or close friend; best friend Example: With a boon companion, she followed her new path. So there we have it according to Dictionary.com!

I hope my daughter finds a life long friend. I want that for her and for my son as well. That is one thing lost when you move around a lot and I admit i did that freely! Now I am settled and i am going to start truly looking for a few good friends to share a life time with. I suggest you do the same because we sure are not getting any younger! Good luck on your journey, and I will let you know how mine is going :)
