My Best Friend

I can honestly say that I am not sure if circumstances were different that I would be best friends with my best friend. In our younger years our interests and personalities were so different that a friendship just didn’t make sense. We spent a lot of time fighting and not particularly liking each other. Yet when it mattered we stuck together; no one could come between us for very long.

Over time we have developed some similar interest is things like TV and books but for the most part our interest are still pretty different. We are both mommies and so that gives us something to bond over. As with our interest there are facets to our personalities that have grown to be quite similar, there are times where we think so alike it is almost as if we share a brain. But then there are things we think so differently about that it leaves us wondering about the others sanity/common sense/etc. We still have times where we fight and don’t like each other. We still stick together; no one can come between us for very long.

So I bet your wondering why we are friends. Well it’s because we didn’t choose to be friends it was determined by our birth. She is my sister; neither of us chose to be playmates or friends but we were forced to by circumstance of being born to the same parents. Personally I think I was lucky because if we weren’t sisters I would have missed out on a pretty fabulous best friend.
