Crossing Paths

There are always people in your life that make you wonder, what did you do to deserve to cross paths with them? How did you get so lucky to have them in your life and to experience things with them?

I have met a lot of people in my life...some have come and gone, while many have stayed. As I do cherish each and every person I have come in contact with, shared a special memory with, or a not so good memory, I have to say the girls I met in college have become some of the best friends a girl could ever have!

Here we are almost 4 years out of college and we are still all great friends. We see each other at least once a month. We have seen each other go through a lot whether it is a passing of a parent, getting married, or having a child. These are some very monumentious events in our lives and I can honestly say that they have helped me through every single one of those trying and joyous times.

I think most times we are together we still have as much fun together as we did when we all lived in the same apartment(except for Melissa, but it was like she always was a part of us). We still do act like we are in college sometimes like taking a certain trip to connecticut, going out for desserts, or just hanging out and being loud. After all that's what girls do best right?

Jess is the last one of us to get married...well there is Jen, we still have hopes for Jen that she will someday meet her prince charming! We love you Jen, even though you moved away from us! We still miss you and can't wait to see you at Jess' wedding.

Surprisingly all of our husbands are friends and tolerate us girls! Poor guys they didn't know they would have to deal with girls like us! But I also think that they know how important we are to each other!

There are things that only us girls know the meaning behind it. So we can be loud, but we always do have a lot of fun and laughter when we are together.

There are many days when I wish we all lived closer but in reality I know we can't...I wish we could all buy a house in the same neighborhood, but know the possibility of that is slim as well.Maybe we can all retire to Florida together!

All I know is that they are the best friends anyone could ever have! They put a light in my life and make me feel good about everything that has happened.

Just think if I didn't go to college, or Westfield for that matter, I would have never known these wonderful girls and their husbands. If I could go back to college I would as I miss it all the time and the free spirits we once were. Not having to worry about bills, houses, jobs, or our children. But I would only go back if I could meet the same people again. I would be lost without them. I am grateful for every exprience they have given me whether good or bad and I know that I can always cound on them!

Thank you girls for crossing my path in life!
