The best part is when that person is someone you've know for over 15 years. One of my bestest friends from high school moved to North Texas with her husband almost 8 years ago. Unless she came home to visit I didn't get to see her on a regular basis until I moved to Texas.
The first year and a half I was able to travel up to their neck of the woods often and we always had a blast. Their daughter was born almost two years and she has quickly become one of my favorite people.
We've grown closer over the last 2.5 years because we know what it feels like to be far from those we love. Attempting to make a life, a name, a family without those that know us better then anyone else. It's rediscovering who we are and what we stand for.
I'm thankful for these friends and for the bond we have. We laughed, we saw alligators, we built a fort in the living room- we just lived and it was perfect.
