As I've grown older, I realize the importance of QUALITY friends vs. QUANTITY. I received this e-mail from my wonderful sister-in-law this morning, and just thought I'd share it with you - all of my friends:
A simple friend has never seen you cry.
A real friend's shoulder is soggy from your tears.
A simple friend doesn't know your parents' first names.
A real friend has their phone numbers in her address book.
A simple friend brings a bottle of wine to your party.
A real friend comes early to help you cook and stays late to help you clean.
A simple friend hates it when you call after they've gone to bed.
A real friend asks you why you took so long to call.
A simple friend seeks to talk with you about your problems.
A real friend seeks to help you with your problems.
A simple friend wonders about your romantic history.
A real friend could blackmail you with it!
A simple friend thinks the friendship is over when you have an argument.
A real friend calls you after you had a fight.
A simple friend expects you to always be there for them.
A real friend expects to always be there for you!
To all my REAL friends, I love ya! (Sorry if I missed posting a pic of you)

I've seen that before, and ain't it the truth! I know we've kinda drifted apart over the years, but whenever I see you it's like nothing has changed. I love you Leslie and I value our frienship more than you'll ever know!!!
