Throughout the life we lead, we make friends along the way.

Now, more than ever we miss them greatly. We wish we could be together. We miss their laugh, their smile and their warm – big as life – hugs.

We see the value in the connections we make. We learn to appreciate what we have, and then miss it when it is gone. We decide that we need to make more meaningful connections and stay close.

No.

Matter.

What.

If there is one piece of advice that we would pass on to our kids, it is to make as many friends along the way as we can and then, hold them dear – hugging them whenever we get together (again).
