I think the thing that I loved the most, was that we were all still us. I couldn't really remember going into our time together, what each of us had done over the last decade and more. But I knew that most of us had gone to college, gotten married, moved at least once, had children, lost children, lost family, gained family, had struggles, had victories. They still laugh the same, they still hug the same, they still cry the same, they still talk the same. They might have a baby in their arms, and maybe shorter hair, a newer car, an important job, but they were still the friends I loved.
Even though I never see these women, and hardly ever talk to most of them, they all are still important people in my life. And I was glad to be able to see them again....all grown up.

I love this post...the Lord provides us with important friendships just when we need them, through each season of our life...and those important friendships are always special, even when communication is few and far between....
Wow, what a wonderful bond you have with these women. That is inspiring!
I loved getting together again and sharing stories of children, hubbies, and life over the last 10 yrs. I've always said, no matter then distance between friends, the love never changes. That's true with us all. We always seem to pick up where we left off, and have lots of great laughs. -Heather
