After girls grow up, get married, and have children, life changes a lot. One thing that gets better with age is friendships. There's nothing quite like the depth of a relationship formed through the ups and downs and dishes of family life. This picture reminds me of my friend, Christine and me...in a land without email and phones. It's called "Chatterboxes" by Thomas Benjamin Kennington.
Nothing helps pass a dreary day of housework like some chat and humor with a buddy! As a side note, I love the heap of 'stuff' piled in the corner. Way to keep it real, Mr. Kennington!
Any other thoughts, readers?
Awwwwww . . . I'm tearing up, over here!!! I love that picture, now. I know that your friendship has helped me through many trial - from dishes to pnemonia.
ReplyDeleteI love that the women in the picture are shelling peas. Sharing everday work is the foundation for the best friendships!
Girlfriends are important!!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! I don't really have any close girlfriends besides my mom and my sisters. Sometimes I do envy other people... I try not to though! :)
