    My daughter is my awesome best friend. I have had the pleasure of knowing my daughter for 37 years. She is a grown woman with a daughter of her own now. We both identify ourselves as artists and lovers of farm life. It seems to be tattooed onto our souls. My 3 year old sweetpea of a granddaughter seems to be joining the fold. The peacefulness of the farm and the quiet solitude of working on art projects keep us both in joyful spirits.

    Since kindergarten. We are still bff and will always be!

  15. Roxanne Schellman says:

    My husband is my BFF…which, I know. Totally goes against what’s happening here ;-). But it’s the truth. Met him nine years ago and have been married for almost seven of those. He’s seen a couple of my “supposed girl BFFs” come and go during that time, and his unwavering support and shoulder have always been there. Which is just what a BFF should do, am I right?!

  16. Linda Donaldson says:

    My #1 BFF would have to be my Mom! We could talk about and share EVERYTHING!!!
    Since she has now passed away (I miss her something terrible), my 2nd BFF whom I have known for 23+ years, has stepped up to ease the loss.
    My most favorite author would have to be Pearl Buck. Oh how I wish I could share a cup of tea with her!!!

  17. Linda Donaldson says:

We call ourselves “Sisters of the Heart”. We are all now retired and living closer together which allows more frequent opportunities to get together.

    I would love to read this author. I have had best friends only to have them move out of state. Being a caregiver to my spouse my time is so limited and many woman do not understand the job. I am much younger than my spouse. Friends are of all ages and interests. I do have one that I would be able to rely on which is peaceful to me.
    Perhaps I will be the one do read this book. I thank you for the offer.

  27. I’ve know my best friend Holly for 34 years. We met in college and then became roommates. At one point we lost touch for a couple of years, it was awful. I scoured the country looking for her and she too, called all my known associates and places of work. It was just one of those times when we both moved..etc. We cried when I found her again. We now only live 3 hours apart. She’s my sister from another mother. We have been in an to each other’s wedding and our kids’ weddings. It’s truly amazing how when times are hard, she’s the one I can count on to cheer me up. My other best friend is my daughter. She’s 27. I just love that she is now my best friend too and not just my daughter.
