What Can You Say?


What can you say about the two most amazing friends a person could ever have?

That they are kind, funny, smart, talented, gorgeous, and the best mothers in the whole world.

That they make you laugh and laugh and laugh until you are literally crying with laughter.

That they allow you to be completely and perfectly honest with them because you know they will never judge you.

That they will always love you no matter what, and you know that as well as you know anything.

That they don't care one bit that you are 20 years older than they are.

That they promise you will never look like a grandma, even if you are one someday.

That the one in Texas loves the other two of you so much that she was willing to drive to Austin in the middle of the night to pick you up after you missed your connecting flight in Denver.

That they both cheat at Skip-Bo.

That they think it's funny that they cheat at Skip-Bo.

That they both love to eat delicious, fattening food almost as much as you do.

That their 20-something year old bodies metabolize that fattening food better than yours does, so they don't gain weight.

That they refuse to do P90X with you, so you likely gained ten pounds in the four days you were with them.

That even with one of them living in Texas, the relationship you have doesn't change. Once you're together, it's like you were never apart. It's magical.

That you've stopped trying to figure out what it is that makes this incredible friendship work the way it does, and instead you're just so very thankful that it does.

That you love them so much it brings tears to your eyes even thinking about it.

That saying goodbye is hardest because you really can't know for sure when the three of you will be together again.

That you are grateful for modern transportation, so even 1,300 miles can't separate the three of you forever.

What can you say about the two most amazing friends a person could ever have?

Only this: I love you Lindsey and Celeste.
