Ode to great friends

I have just been thinking about all the great friends I have had over the years. And to all of you I would like to say thanks!!!! It is all of you who make my life so wonderful. I think we truly learn the value of something once it is gone. At this time, when the nearest of my friends is 2 1/2 hours away I realize what you all mean to me and have done for me. since I have had children I am not really social at all no matter how much I want to be I just find it very difficult to get out and make new friends. So just to let you all know...I miss you!
