She finally knows!

Most (or all) of you reading this blog know who I mean when I mention my BFF.  We met our first day of kindergarten and became fast friends.  It's so crazy to think that we are both under 30 and have been best friends for about 25 years.  Our friendship definitely reaches beyond the norm.  Her family has become mine over the years.  Her sister Kate is the older sister I never had.  And her parents are amazing and have done so much for me (in fact, they were our master and mistress of ceremonies at our wedding).

Stephanie and I were fortunate to go to the same grade school and middle school (we had a short blip of a few weeks in sixth grade when she transferred to Rockford, but thankfully she quickly came back).  We went to the same high school and even decided on CMU together.  It came time for her to graduate and she went to the Detroit area while I was still at CMU for another semester.  Thankfully, my job would land me right back in her area :)  Luckily, there was a room for rent in her house and before we knew it, we were back together again.

Since then, things have changed with living situations.  We both got married and jobs have taken Stephanie and Jon to different cities (Chicago and now Cali).  But the most amazing part is that there is nothing different with our friendship.  True, I don't get to see her as often, but that just makes our visits even more special.  She's still one of the very first people I call with good news or bad.  We still talk and e-mail all of the time. 

I was finally able to break the exciting news to her last night and I could just hear her excitement :)  It was so nice to finally be able to tell her EVERYTHING.  And I apologized for lying to her for the past month and half about my fake doctor's visits and fake tests I was having run.  Thankfully, she forgave me ;)  I just can't wait to share this new chapter with her.  She's going to be the best BFF auntie ever.

Love you BFF!
