As I am about to see my closest friends from childhood, I could not be more excited. Although it won’t be all of 8 of us, we are all together in spirit (M, A, K, J, T, N, S & K!) For all of you that are lucky enough to carry friends from your past who have known you for what seems like forever, reach out today and let them know how much they mean to you. It will make you feel good and it will definitely help make today their ‘newfavoriteday’.
Childhood Friends by Mindy Carpenter
As childhood friends, we grew up together,
Swearing to be friends forever and ever.
Sometimes we would argue and fight,
Other times we would laugh and stay up all night.
Swearing to be friends forever and ever.
Sometimes we would argue and fight,
Other times we would laugh and stay up all night.
We went from playing with games and toys,
To talking and dreaming about different boys.
My thoughts and feelings, to you I would confide,
Never having anything to hide.
Friends we do remain,
Things changing, and things staying the same.
To each other we still listen and share,
About each other, we will always care.

My only childhood friends are my siblings. That’s not a complaint, but rather a “by way of explanation” as to why I love reading about childhood friends so much.
Awww well I count my sisters among my best friends too so we have that in common:). It is a unique gift I have been lucky enough to receive. You will likely see more of these girls in the future. Thanks for sharing this.
