 She looked across the table at her friend on her birthday and thought 42 looks so young. 

They had gone to a fancy nursery filled with exotic plants that had a cafe of salads and light sandwiches... a very girly type of cafe to celebrate her friends  42 year around the sun . 

Standing at the counter they laughed because they discussing the menu both had thought to order the same exact things all the way down to the ice cream cookie sandwich ! 

As they sat at the table , outside in the sunshine , surrounded by fall mums and the last vestiges for summer canna a lilies. She looked at her friend and knew every moment was worth the effort. 

Her brown haired friend  was an incredible woman that loves largely and went out of her way to fill in the gaps to her own shortcomings.  She discussed the foods and supplement research she had done to help my horse , we discussed people at the barn and their clique of two.. 

Some days when you are over worked she thought friendship and reaching out is tuff but it’s moments like this where the sun is shining , the food is good and your celebrating the miracle of the person across the table your know in your soul this is what life is about.
