I am so impatient that my daughter bask in the warmth of friendship. I swear I have been waiting for more than a year patiently.<BR/><BR/>So many ways I have been a 'good mother' respectful of the republic of childhood and what is different about their lives. But on this point I am not doing so well. To me friendship seems so dear and precious that I cannot at all imagine a time before. To my detriment I tilt at the windmill that much about being and having friends is learned. It seems to tawdry for something otherwise rich and rare.<BR/><BR/>you capture the richness here. thanksmo-wohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10934156423936866994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21634138.post-41943070484268750192007-05-29T21:02:00.000-07:002007-05-29T21:02:00.000-07:00You know, I always thought that proximity didn't m...You know, I always thought that proximity didn't matter when it came to friendships, that a close friend would remain so, even if she lived far away.<BR/><BR/>But in truth, my friend who lives close by is closest to my heart, and friends who are in different cities are more distant than they should be.<BR/><BR/>Here's hoping Ada gets a new BFF in the neighborhood.Lumpyheadsmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15448242506597812607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21634138.post-83264185620425366872007-05-29T20:54:00.000-07:002007-05-29T20:54:00.000-07:00that is so beautiful.*sniff*that is so beautiful.<BR/><BR/>*sniff*Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21634138.post-57871565946145458932007-05-29T09:19:00.000-07:002007-05-29T09:19:00.000-07:00nice sentiment. i have such great memories of my ...nice sentiment. i have such great memories of my childhood best friend. the closest thing i have now is the icky boy i live with (not my son). may all of our children have great best friends throughout childhood and beyond!mama without instructionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02034751367533504811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21634138.post-219110165107071902007-05-29T04:26:00.000-07:002007-05-29T04:26:00.000-07:00this really makes me think about the inevitability...this really makes me think about the inevitability of P growing up and waiting to whisper secrets with someone other than me. it makes me so sad.dodohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15617322056885649095noreply@blogger.com
