It's not because of the after-Christmas glow that most think of.
It's because on December 26, 1979 God gave me not one, but BOTH of my best friends. My precious "A's."
Our three-fold friendship has seen laughing, crying, and growing up together. We've huddled in grief at gravesides, and we've celebrated with abandon at weddings. We've vacationed together, and kept the phone lines busy and email networks hopping.
All three of us are hard-core NH girls... But due to life's twists and turns, are all living outside of our beloved state right now.
There have been the times that Drewey and I have met half way between NH & RI to drink coffee and sit in the car, talking for hours in the pouring rain. The times that I've driven to Amy's house and cried on her couch, because my broken heart was too much to bear alone.
And this year... they sent me off to a foreign country with their love and their blessing.
Happy birthday, my two best girls... Love you both so much it hurts!
Best birthday post ever! Thank you, my dear friend!
