You know she's a true friend when...

She lets you call her at all hours of the night crying...
She offers to watch all 3 of your kids and get them to school and to the babysitter so that you can sit at the side of your sister's hospital bed...
She packs you a backpack full of goodies, coloring books, puzzles, reading books, stuffed animals. and other miscellanious items to keep you and your kids busy during the countless hours spent in the hospital...
She sends a vase of flowers to the ICU waiting room to brighten the area and let everyone know she is thinking of them...
She comes and uses her elbow grease to help you scrub showers and (gross) TOILETS at your old rental house so that you can be out by the end of the month and actually start enjoying your new home...
She lets you have a Superbowl party at her house since the housewarming party/Superbowl bash at your new house got cancelled/postponed due to the death of a loved one...
She's a good sport when the two of you get stranded in St. George and are forced to have a "girl's weekend" whether she wanted one or not...
She knows how to make you laugh even when you are in a horrible mood...
The list could go on and on, but Trecia, I just wanted to give you a public shout-out and say thank you for EVERYTHING!!! You have been amazing and I love you to pieces!!! You'll never know how much your love and support has meant to me!
Helen Keller said it best..."Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light."
