When a girl has a sister-friend…

February 8, 2012 by Desiree · 4 Comments

When a girl has a sister-friend, things are never quite as scary. You see, when I felt like the world walked out on me, my sister-friends walked in. We have been friends for over 20 years and I am so blessed to have them in my life. I consider it a privilege to be friends with such kind, smart, courageous, fair-minded, loyal, sassy women. Truly, they are not just friends, they are family… they are my sisters. Allow me to introduce you to Beth and Thomasina.

“If ever there is tomorrow when we’re not together… there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we’re apart… I’ll always be with you.” – A.A. Milne

About Desiree

Hi, I’m Desiree Allen, a thirty-something single parent with two children. A native of Denver, Colorado, I lived there until 2009, when I moved across the country to northern New Jersey with my kids. I am doing my best to avoid ‘picking up’ a Jersey accent, but I’m not making promises that I won’t eventually start sounding like some of my new friends.
