I have a best friend that I've known since we were 4 years old - and I'm 48 now. We have the kind of relationship that communicates on a totally different level from the rest of the world.

One look can send us into gut-busting laughter that just won't stop, one hug can ease all the troubles in our lives, one smile can brighten the entire week.

My phone will ring just as I'm getting ready to call her - and of course it's her.
