March 3, 1996

One spring day in 1996, a young girl boarded the school bus after a long day of 5th grade, only to find out that her usual seat was taken. Thankfully, a girl she didn’t know offered to share her seat and the two girls then shared Chiclets and a conversation on the ride home.This bus ride home then blossomed into a best friendship and continued through middle school, high school, tragedy and heartbreak, adulthood, starting a blog together, and now the adventures of motherhood.

We don’t know the exact date we met, but we decided years ago that we will celebrate on March 3rd of every year. Here’s to 27 years of best friendship.
