I WAS GOING TO A NEW COLLEGE WHEN I MET HER. MY MOMMA WAS THERE WITH ME. SHE AND I HAD ONLY TALKED ON THE PHONE ONCE OR TWICE. AND SHE TOLD ME HOW SHE HAD PRAYED ABOUT HAVING A ROOMMATE SHE’D GET ALONG WITH. I WAS SO EXCITED TO MEET HER. I WAS IN MY NEW DORM ROOM WHEN MY MOMMA WAS DOWNSTAIRS HELPING ME UNLOAD. SHE AND I HAD NEVER SEEN EACH OTHER. WHEN SHE WALKED IN THE DOOR, MY MOMMA LOOKED UP AT HER AND SAID, “YOU MUST BE MY DAUGHTER’S ROOMATE….ARE YOU HILARIE?”. SHE GRINNED AND SAID, “YEAH, ARE YOU JESSICA’S MOM?”. TO TOP IT OFF, WE WERE WEARING THE SAME EXACT EYEGLASSES. THAT’S JUST TOO CUTE. WE STILL HAVE NO IDEA HOW MY MOMMA KNEW WHO SHE WAS….SHE JUST DID.
SHE AND I HAVE PRETTY MUCH BEEN CONNECTED IN HEART AND MIND SINCE. WE DO THINGS THAT ARE TOO WEIRD TO EXPLAIN…..WATCH THE SAME MOVIES ON THE SAME NIGHTS, WITHOUT THE OTHER ONE KNOWING…..WE CAN JUST SORT OF FEEL WHEN SOMETHING’S GOING ON WITH THE OTHER ONE. I SWEAR, ASIDE FROM MY HUSBAND, I’VE NEVER BEEN AS CLOSE TO ANOTHER HUMAN BEING AS I HAVE BEEN AND STILL AM TO HER. SHE IS A WONDERFUL WOMAN. SHE HAS NO IDEA HOW MUCH I LOVE HER. AND I THINK WE ARE ONLY BEGINNING TO SEE HOW AMAZING THE FRIENDSHIP IS THAT THE LORD DROPPED INTO OUR LAPS. IF I HAVE EVER NEEDED ANYTHING, SHE’S BEEN THERE FOR ME…NO QUESTIONS ASKED. I ONLY HOPE I HAVE DONE THE SAME FOR HER. I LOOK FORWARD TO BEING 65 YEARS OLD WITH HER AND REMINISCING ABOUT HOW WE FIRST MET. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL STORY. YOU CAN’T MAKE STUFF LIKE THIS HAPPEN ON YOUR OWN. SOME THINGS ARE JUST TOO WONDERFUL FOR US TO DO….HOW MY HUSBAND AND I CAME TO BE TOGETHER…..HOW SHE AND I CAME TO KNOW ONE ANOTHER…..IT’S VERY OBVIOUSLY THE HAND OF GOD. THIS GIRL MEANS THE WORLD TO ME. AND I JUST WANTED TO SHARE THAT WITH THE WORLD OF THE NET.
TODAY I GOT A PRESENT IN THE MAIL FROM HER FOR MOTHER’S DAY. I BAWLED LIKE A BABY. SHE WANTS ME TO CONSIDER IT FROM MY MOMMA. HOW ON EARTH CAN A FRIEND BE THIS AMAZING? I DON’T KNOW. BUT SHE IS. I LOVE YOU, BIFFUH. YOU MAKE MY HEART SMILE IN SO MANY WAYS.

That mound of dirt. She's a good one!
(I always think of her as 'mound of dirt' because when she and I came up to your surprise birthday party, she told me that a guy in one of her classes at UCO called her that. I always thought it was funny, so I always think of that when I think of her :)
