Best Friend Forever

Today is my BFF Nona's 37th Birthday. Nona and I have been best friends since the 5th grade. 1981 to be exact. That is 27 years!!! There is probably nothing that she doesn't know about me. And I her. We are two peas in a pod. We can look at each other and know exactly what the other is thinking. We are each other's memories. When I don't remember something, she knows it. And vise versa. We can go 6 months without talking and pick up right where we left off. That's what is great about having a BFF. We have gone our separate ways here and there over the years, but have always maintained our BFF status.

We became instant friends as soon as we met. There was no "getting to know you" time in our friendship. We met and were instantly best friends. Inseperable.

We shared everything, except for clothes.

She always had better fashion sense than I did.

But I was better in the "beautify" department. As you can see by my lovely makeover I performed on her.

We always went Trick-or-Treating together. And now even take our kids together.

She met her future hubby in 10th grade, I met Flyboy in 11th grade. We went to the dances together Senior year and had our photo's taken together.

When we went to Prom, I think we only danced once because our "hubbies to be" spent the entire evening competing with each other by bringing us flowers and balloons from the Prom decorations. It was hilariously great fun.

After graduation, we both attended BSU and learned how to be dental assistants together. We even worked in the same office and got to go on a business trip to Hawaii. What great luck is that?

She got married before I did and I was in her wedding. And when I got married, she was in mine.

We even celebrated mine by doing "blow jobs" together. THE DRINKS, MOM!

She has always been there when I have needed her.

Today, we went to lunch together to celebrate her birthday. I was lucky and had the day off.

She is and will always be my BFF. Happy Birthday Kanona!
