Dear Amy,

I am a very lucky person. I have known my very best and oldest friend since I was 6 years old.

As I sit here planning my first Language Arts block for my first grader, I am struck by overwhelming emotions for my oldest and dearest friend, Amy. We were 6 and in first grade together when we met. 32 years later and the distance between Boston and Austin separating us we are still very close.

Annie is developing bonds and cherishing friendships with a few girls now. I wonder if one of these sweet girls will still be in her life in 32 years.

Amy is also 39 weeks pregnant. She might even be experiencing her first signs of labor at this moment.
I love you Amy and I wish you a smooth labor and I can't wait to meet your new little one.
