Day 3 of the "Be Thankful" Challenge...

Today, I'm thankful for friends.  True friends.  Friends that are there for me when I need them, no matter how busy life gets, or how much is going on in their lives.  Friends who will tell me in the most honest way possible what I'm doing wrong or could do better, but who don't judge me.  Have you heard the phrase:

I have a handful of friends that this applies to.  How about:

None of these friends live close, but once we're together, it's like we were never apart.  I'm thankful for those friends. Whether in Colorado, or Hilton Head, or little Swansea, SC.... I know what friends will be there no matter what.  And I try my hardest to be "that friend" for them as well. 

I'm from "small town USA"... Cheraw, SC.  I've figured out in my adult life that Cheraw has a bond like no other.  It's the funniest thing. But I can meet someone who graduated 10 years before me, who I never knew while living in Cheraw, but suddenly, we're bonded.  :)  I'm lucky enough to have a tight knit high school class, and I worry about my children growing up in a larger town, going to multiple schools with different kids, not having that lifelong bond with friends. 

I'm rambling now, but today, I'm thankful for lifelong friends.  What are you thankful for??
