Happy Birthday to my BESTEST friend EVA!

me and kim

Here we are in High School...thick eyebrows, puffy bangs and all. This was senior year and we were marking our four year relationship as friends; solidifying what was to be in the many few years after high school ended.

Today is Miss Kimmy's birthday and this post is dedicated to her because I forgot to send a card I love her so.

She knows me for me. She loves me for me. Just as I love her.
She speaks her mind, no matter what is on it, she says it. I love that about her.
She is not shy, she can talk to anyone and everyone. She exudes confidence and intelligence when she speaks. I dig that about her.
She is considerate of others, she is compassionate.
She is a wonderfully patient mom to her twin girls and now to baby C. I admire her patience with them.

She has stood by me, through thick and thin.

After all of these years, she still remains my best friend. As gay as best friends forever sounds, it is true, she will ALWAYS be the best friend that I have ever had.

Today on her 34 29th birthday I wish her the very best that life has to offer, I wish her many more friendships like we have shared and I wish her to know how much she means to me and how much I love her.

This is a poem she found and sent to me when I was having a rough time:

Standing by,
All the way.
Here to help you through your day.

Holding you up,
When you are weak,
Helping you find what it is you seek.

Catching your tears,
When you cry.
Pulling you through when the tied is high.

Just being there,
Through thick and thin,
All just to say, you are my best friend.

-Brittani Kokko-

I love that poem and I have it hanging on my wall to always remind me that I have someone out there that cares...and I CARE about her too!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIRL.
