How blessed could one person be?

Today, I turned 27, well it's 12:30 at night so technically yesterday but anyways I want to write a blog about my friends....

I have a handful of friends that I have known for practically my whole life.  We went through elementary together, teen years and now our adulthood. It's crazy to think I have known them for 20 years. 

I have had many good friends over the years.  Friends that I considered my best friends even but there's only a select few that have been by my side throughout my entire life. 

I've cut friends out of my life over the years because our lives were heading in different directions.  Either they were into the party scene heavily,  became mothers but there kids didn't come first,  or drama followed them. Etc the list could go on forever. 

My mother has always said "Birds of a feather flock together" I never really understood what she was trying to tell me until recently....

When i became a mother i had more in common with my friends who were mothers as well.  I still had friends that didn't have children but it was harder to keep in touch. When I got in a relationship it was fun to hang out with my couple friends verses my single friends,  doing single things. 

I look back at some of the people that have come into my life and after some time eventually we parted ways and I'm so grateful for these handful of friends that no matter the stages we were in our lives we've remained close.  We remained family.
