I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...

Wikipedia defines friendship as:
...a cooperative and supportive relationship between two or more people. In this sense, the term connotes a relationship which involves mutual knowledge, esteem, affection, and respect along with a degree of rendering service to friends in times of need or crisis. Friends will welcome each others company and exhibit loyalty towards each other, often to the point of altruism. Their tastes will usually be similar and may converge, and they will share enjoyable activities. They will also engage in mutually helping behavior, such as the exchange of advice and the sharing of hardship.
Basically, these girls put that definition into action and they ROCK at it! Mallory, Donna, Daniella, and Tara are like friendship superheros. These girls take me for what I am and who I will be and never let go. Across the country, across oceans, across everything, I know these girls will be in my life until I leave this place.
In August, we gave Daniella a necklace of 5 peas in a pod; representing all of us. We each bought one ourselves and this simile, of course (peas in a pod), derives from the fact that peas from the same pod are virtually indistinguishable. When I wear the necklace, I am reminded of the blessings of all of you in my life!

"Well-behaved women rarely make history." Marilyn Monroe
That quote is right! We have really made it through anything. From people not talking for months, to fighting, crying, moving away, changing, confronting, bickering, boob hitting, yelling, wrestling, disagreeing, etc... you name it- we've been through it! Yet, I wouldnt trade any of it for the world! Us 5 have challenged each other and taught one another so many things- I would not be who I am without the 4 of you in my life. I am a better wife, daughter, friend, human, and follower of Christ because of you all!
I cannot wait to reunite over Christmas and enjoy the
laughter, joy and new 2009 soundtracks of our lives!!!!
I love you girls!!!!! xoxo Emms
