My mom has a group that meets the first Friday of every month called “First Friday Friends,” and since I am posting about friendship over at Gather Inspirit today, I thought it was only fitting to feature MY friends on this first Friday.

The women with whom I laugh and cry, go to movies and drink coffee, eat and craft and have a grand old time.

The women I love dearly.

Because even though my online friends are wonderful, there is nothing like IRL friends.

And you can’t do this with online only friends.
