There is just something about having a great friend. Someone who really "gets you." It is the way they know what you are gonna say or do before you even know it yourself. It is knowing that someone looks forward to seeing you and spending time with you.
A best friend is hard to find. That makes it even more special when you find one. And if for some reason, you can't talk to your best friend, it feels like part of you is missing. Almost as if things can't really happen in your life if you can't share them with your best friend.
Twins have such a great deal.... from the moment of conception, they are hanging out with their best friend. The connection that they have, being with their best friend all the time. Every birthday, every first day of school, every bedtime, every first that comes.... they have each other. But the challenging part is finding other people to be their friend. It seems that people find it hard to be close friends with twins. I am guilt of it as a mom, its ok for one friend to come over, but not two at the same time.... Anyway... my twins have been blessed with a best friend. Kayla loves them. They are three peas in a pod. For many Halloweens they have all three dressed up together as the same thing. They spend many nights together on the phone, on skype (even though they live 7 miles apart), and sleepovers. These girls love one another.
When I see the way they laugh together, appreciate the likes and quirks of one another, and share dreams together, I am so grateful to God for blessing my girls with the friendship they have with Kayla. I call her my " almost daughter" because that is what she is to us. We love her and appreciate her friendship to our girls.
So what about you? Have you experienced the highs of time with a best friend? What about the lows? Maybe you should give them a call?
