Whether next door or in
the next time zone, our friends provide some of our most important
relationships. We cherish time spent with them, bemoan time spent apart, and
look forward to the next time we can have coffee or rush to greet them as they
walk toward our door. And nothing warms our hearts like stories of true
friendship.

My Thoughts:
I think everyone has
friends while they are growing up. Those friends tend to change from time to
time, depending on the season of your life, but the friends are always there.
As you grow into an adult,
some of those friends stay with you, but it is easy to lose track of those
connections as you move into the beginnings of your life as adults, wife and
mom. In the past few years, I have been fortunate to make some new connections –
adult friends trekking along in the same season of life I find myself. Those
friendships are a treasure.
The friendship I have
found with my little tribe is something so special. That is what friendship is.
In The Gift of Friendship, Dawn has collected essays from some of the most
amazing and influential women across the nation. This collection of friendship
stories so accurately portrayed the true meaning of adult friendship. It really
hit home to my current season of life, and the women I am fortunate enough to
call my friends.
I loved this book so much,
and look forward to sharing it with those women I call my friends.
