Friendships

Last night I celebrated the birthday I one of my oldest and most treasured friends. It was a surprise party and we really surprised her. I met Carla in our 3rd grade class and we have been friends ever since. We shared sleepovers with late night calls to KROQ loveline, TPing houses, Marching Band, Tennis and Swim team and she was even there for me during some of my most trying times. Carla was one of the first to know when I discovered I was pregnant at 17 with out judgement and she was a bridesmaid in my wedding. It doesn't matter that we don't talk everyday and yes have gone for very long periods without seeing each other but when we finally do get together it is like we were never apart. I know that if I ever needed anything that I could pick up the phone and know that she will drop what she is doing for me.
I love this girl like a sister and am blessed that she is part of my life. Happy Birthday girl.
