I never thought a girls lunch at Red Lobster would change my life forever, but it did! That day in February 1997, I met my bestie! It was your warmth, your laugh and your ease that made me say “I want to hang out with her”. We planned our first outing — to meet at Skyline gym to workout. What the hell? Why? Who were those girls? I don’t know who they were, but I guess it worked for that moment in time. I don’t think we have ever made it to a gym together, but we definitely made our way to countless restaurants, clubs, bars, house parties, beaches, and countries!
You have enriched my life in ways that I didn’t know were possible. You made me a Godmother – the best gift ever! I learned so much about children and life from you! You are a perfect example of tough love and ride-or-die love. I became a much better daughter, granddaughter, sister, niece, aunt, Godmother, cousin, friend, and professional because of you! Thank you for changing my life for the better! I am forever grateful for the universe to allow our paths to cross.
You are the most loving person I know; everything about you says love. I wish you all the love and happiness you deserve for year 50 and beyond.
The countdown to 5-0 is on! I can’t wait to celebrate you!
Love, Tami
Cheers to Red Lobster!
