Friends are our Family by choice

Friends are our family-by-choice.

I am thankful, for each one is a world to me. This past year I especially thank Ms. Priddy who helped me connect my childhood me to my adult me with laughter and generosity beyond measure. 

Or, Babs, my raising our kids together days who, despite a full plate of her own , was there to encourage me through my challenge. 

Or Joan, Wanda, Ella or MB in Florida who saw me at my worse and made the deepest friendship endure.

Or, my Pittsburgh Posse whom I love and hold dear (yes Dee you're in that group).

Whether old friends or new, good times or not, Bakersfield to Boston, 

a lifetime or a moment in time, if not for friends, life would be a blank slate. Thank you to each and every friend. I am a better I because you touched my life with you.

#100 Thanks!
