If I Had a Time Machine

If I had a time machine, I would travel back to nursery, elementary and middle school to find the kid version of myself who just met Meg, Lindsey, Melissa and Liz. I'd give mini-me a high five and say "nice choice, you will be best friends over 2o years later". (I might also buy her a pizza and tell her to enjoy it because her lactose tolerance is going...fast.)

Seriously, mini-me was a genius. There is something special about this group of girls. From Canada, to MA, to NH, to Maine, to New Jersey - the distance doesn't matter. When we're together, there's magic in the air. We're unstoppable. Everything and anything is possible.

A Wednesday night dinner in Maine - sure! A Sunday dinner in Jersey, why not? A trip to Canada, coming this summer! I would go to the moon and back with a smile on my face.
I have a lot to be thankful for every Thanksgiving...loving family, roof above my head, floor below my feet, food in my belly and so on. But I'm especially thankful for these four girls!

PS. I would then transport myself back to Thanksgiving and publish this post so it wouldn't be two weeks late. Following that, I'd put a big red bow on the time machine (like the holiday car commercials) and give it to Shawn for Christmas. I think he'd like it...a lot.

Everyone's so jealous that I still have my girls from Childhood, and I wouldn't have it any other way! I loooove you Kelly! And she'd totally wear leggings, that awful black and hot pink jacket and heavy bangs...and a headband...I always remember a headband...
