When I went to Time out for women recently I randomly ran into one of my very best childhood friends that I hadn't seen in years. Isn't she lovely? We have been friends since birth and when she moved to Oregon when we were both young children we wrote letters for years, until her dad offered my dad a job and we ended up in Oregon too. If I hadn't had her when I moved to a town that was a stranger to me, life would have been so much harder at the age of 16. I will always be grateful to her for welcoming me into her circle of friends. It's funny how time can pass by and those you care about still have a special place in your heart.
