Recently, I managed to find the sister of a close friend from years back on facebook. As much as I hate social networking sites, it’s been so great to be reacquainted with friends from years back. Friends who mostly just couldn’t keep up with my moves
Much of the loss of contact was my own fault admittedly.
She is a fantastic person, and her entire family was always just as great. While our dreams and goals in life were/are polar opposites of one another…I’m ecstatic that it seems she has gotten everything she ever wanted. She is married to the guy that I knew she had a crush on for years…even as a teenager it seemed. They are very happily married with 2 and 2/3rd kids…and a dog. And I’m not sure they will be done after 3 kids…actually, I’d be fairly surprised if they were! She is the oldest of 9 or 10 kids…and while there was rarely a quiet moment in their house when you were there, you couldn’t meet a more genuine family. When you’re that large of a family, you can’t hide any dysfunction either…and there just wasn’t any.
