Friendship

Yesterday I had the privilege of spending the afternoon and evening with one of the best friends God has ever given me. We've known eachother since we were about two years old, and have been friends ever since. This Christmas break we had a little bit of trouble figuring out where we were going to spend time together, at her house (where it usually happens), or at my house over new years which is the coolest place to be and I wanted her to experience the New Years party in Antigua. Well...neither. We wound up both being stubborn and waiting until the night before she had to go back to the States before we hung out in the capital and just talked and caught up...nothing that hadn't been done over the phone already, but presence is different. The thing about our friendship is that it is sortof a David and Jonathan friendship...we are not afraid to be honest with one another and to admonish eachother. We don't bring one another down, but try and encourage and build eachother up. And we pray for eachother. This is truly probably the best friend I'll ever have, because we've known eachother for 19 years...and will know eachother forever. Can't wait to raise our families together, whether in the same place, or just knowing eachother on certain hoidays and whatnot. My kids will call her Aunt Keeley.
