Bosom friend

I am blessed with one. What is a bosom friend you ask? If you haven't read Anne of Green Gables, then I'll let her explain for you,

"A bosom friend--an intimate friend, you know--a really kindred spirit to whom I can confide my inmost soul."

You know you're close with someone when it's been two years since you've had a heart-to-heart conversation, yet it's as if your hearts were still in sync with each others. We met the first couple days our freshman year of college and have been "kindred spirits" ever since. Since we were on our way back up the east coast, we were able to drop in for a visit. Arriving at 2:30, my friend Monica and I talked non-stop straight until about 11:30! On the couch, during dinner and dessert, throughout a walk in the neighborhood, through games, and then even in the bedroom as we were slowly parting our ways before sleep. What a wonderful, refreshing visit. My cup was and is still overflowing! And to think that I got the chance to see her adorable pregnant belly before Charlotte comes in just about three weeks!

Stephen and Monica, thanks again for letting us drop in to say hello! It filled my soul with joy!
