When friends become family, you are truly lucky. To have that extension of support and love is amazing.
Tonight I had dinner with my friends and their boyfriends and their friends. We all sat in the backyard around a picnic table using the brand new grill. The only way it could have looked more like "The Fast and the Furious" is if Dom and Letty were sitting at the head of the table.
These people are amazing. They are there for you whenever you need them for whatever you need. If you need a hand or a bodyguard. If you need a drinking buddy or workout partner. If you need to bury a body, they won't only lend you a shovel; they will help dig the hole. We have everyone you could need: a nurse and a doctor, a teacher and a decorator, a welder, an engineer and more.
It's amazing to hear these people talk and the way we can say and do anything, but in two minutes, everyone is fine because we all know we are just joking. We are all there for each other, to celebrate the good and to help with the bad. I haven't been a part of this group for very long, but I already feel like I belong and I am so grateful.
People like that are hard to find. I always knew I was lucky when I had just two friends, but now our group has grown thanks to their boyfriends and I wouldn't have it any other way. Thank you for letting me join the family.
