Best Friends

Anyone who knows me know I have a Best Friend that stayed with me for about 23 years!  When I was 5 I moved into the house that my parents still live in! And even though there is a bit of disagreeing on who initiated the meeting met, we met when we were five! There are people in this world that you are destined to met, it part of Heavenly Fathers plan! Natalie is this person to me! Some times people who first met us can't believe that we are best friends because of the way we treat each other but that is how Natalie and I are! It has always been that way! Our Sunday school teacher used to us "Let us all speak kind words to each other"! But I know that there is no one in this world that has my back quite like Natalie!
 I know that there is no one who understands me quite like Natalie! I have to say that there would have been no way I could have survived junior high without Natalie! In high school she used to say that there was a special place in Heaven for her for being mine friend! I would quickly reply yes right in the mansion next to mine! As adults our relationship has changed but I think it think it is stronger! Natalie is still the person who is there when I need her the most! She is still the person who will let me talk and tell the same stories over and over again because I need to process them! She still rolls her eyes every time that I volunteer her for something (somethings will never change)! She is still the person who will never let me forget when I have said something stupid! She is still the person who finds me funny when I am not really that funny! I have other best friends who I love dearly, but the highest spot will always go to Natalie she has earned it! 23 years with me is a long time. I am truly greatful that she puts up with me, because I wouldn't be me without Natalie!

Oh Melissa! This caught me by surprise! Thank you for this heartfelt and honest post about us! There is truly no one like you and I'm grateful for that! We are two different people but I too know that nobody understands me quite like you and nobody has my back like you! We have grown so much in 23 years both physically and relationship wise, it will be interesting to see what's in the future for us! I'm glad I got to meet my best friend when I was five, I count myself very lucky!
