Friendships

As many of you know, Dexter and I have a very large group of friend that we have been friends with for over 10 years, I am pleased to say that some have come and some have gone but the ones that are still here are the ones that will always matter. Our firsts and lasts have been shared together with many memories upon memories. No matter what happens in each of our lives we ARE A FAMILY, I treasure each and everyone of them. They have been there with me through thick and thin and I have been there for them. I can honestly say that I know that in another 10 years they will still be in our lives. Dexter and I were the firsts to get married and to have kids and now year after year there are many more joining our clubs. This week we congratulate Donny and Ashley and welcome Mason Jay into our family. I hope that all of our children find support and love in one another that I have found in their parents. Thank you to everyone for being there for Dexter, I and especially the kids, we couldn't have the lives we have without you!
I am pleased to say over the years I have learned what true friendship is. I have let many friends go for all the right reasons, it was hard at the time but these people had me hurting so bad that I have no remorse now. You could have called me a circle with a bunch of squares.
This weekend I got to spend a wonderful night with Dre and Nina, sipping 3 bottles of wine, gossiping, catching up and reminiscing. It was a much needed time for me. I love these girls. Dre has been in LA for close to 5 years and no matter how long its been since we have talked or seen each other it is as though she has never been gone. I truly miss her and share very fond memories with her. Nina had been one of my bffs since her freshman year and my senior of high school. I feel like she is my little sister and have had her under my wings for quite some time. She moved to NY and Florida for a few years and is now back in KC with a wonderful guy, Rick. Dexter and Rick have become close and I think they see each other more than Nina and I. I am go glad to have her back.
Dre--See you again in April for the 30Th!
