We have a little girl who lives next door named Sammy. Her parents adopted her from China when she was a baby. She and Anna have been wonderful friends since they were three. They aren't members, Sammy goes to a private school, and she is WWWAAAYYY serious about gymnastics so they don't get to play a lot. But when they do, there is this magic that happens and I truly think they are kindred spirits. They are absolutely darling together, they never fight, and they can't wait to be together again. The other day Sammy ran over between school and gymnastics to give Anna a poem that she wrote. It is decorated with rainbows, stars, and polka dots and it makes me bawl.

Friendship Poem

To Anna

You are my PEANUT to my BUTTER

The STAR to my BURST

The KEY to my HEART

The TREASURE to my BOX

The HEART to my BEAT

The MELODY of my SONG

The POP to my CORN

The ANGEL in my HEART

You are my BEST of my FRIEND

From Sammy
