My Best Friend - Thank you

Todays Blog isnt going to be a tale about a misfortune i had.
Today a want to tell you why, with out a doubt, i have the best friend in the universe.
I have known Emma since the very day she was born.
Emma was born 46 days after me. I was still in hospital at this point, mainly becasue i was born dead...my heart wasn't beating and i wasn't breathing, in my eyes thats dead. her mother was placed in the bed next to mine and so it began.
Our mothers became friends, and we both live very close to each other so we went to the same play group 'Tumble Tots' we went round each others houses from a very early age. i can remember one morning when i was three. I woke up at 7 ran into mummy's room, woke her up and said
'Mummy, go to emma!' when i was desperate to see my closest and admitedly at that stage only friend.
As we frew older our friendship seemed only to get stronger. going into the years seemingly joined at the hip. if one of us did somthing you can garentee that the other was right there by her side.
it came to when we were old enough we joined Scouts! this was an amazing adventure for us. our first camp was at an activity center in Wales. we were put in dorms. there were two dorm for the girl and our leaders put us in sperate dorms. this was the worst thing we could possibly imagin. the thought of not being with my best friend tore me apart inside. but of course becasue we were scouts we were big grown up girls and tried not to care. character building if you must.
the camp went over the week of my birthday. on my birthday, Emma remebered and even brought me a presant to wales for me to open. to me this meant a lot.

over the years of our secondry schooling, we seem to have drifted apart. we arent as close as once we were and this saddens me as i remember how happy i was with her.
I want her to know that those memories are the happiest i can remember. i wouldnt swap them for the world. We have gone to different schools and both been bullied...but i want her to know she can count on me if shee needs me, like she has been there for me many many times. she can depened on me to be there through the good times and the bad. she can know i'll always be there. im saying this now becasue i have reialised just how little thanks and supposrt i have given her. and for that Emma i am truly sorry. I really am.
