K
Best friends until she moved in 5th grade. We kept in touch for a while then lost touch and haven't seen each other since we were teens. I think about her sometimes and smile at the fun times we had.
DS18 met a little boy when they were just about 2 years old. The boy also had a twin sister. They all became best friends, were in the same K and 1st grade class together, played sports together, and I was all of their preschool teacher and later on watched the twins at my house when I stayed home after little DS was born. We moved when the threesome were 9 years old (4th grade), they moved a year later, then came back, and through it all the boys remained friends.
Their family came to DS's graduation party last weekend. All three kids are going to different colleges, but they are all within about an hour of each other. They spent a good part of the party making plans to hang out next year. I love that DS still knows his childhood BFF's. And I loved talking to these young adults who I've had the pleasure to know as sweet little toddlers (even though J peed all over my lap once, threw up all over my living room, and used to be the class biter lol and I KNOW DS18 gave their parents a run for their money when he was a guest in their home!) We laugh about all of that now. I love those kids!
