Happy Birthday! One of my very good friend from Israel has just turned 12 years old. We have been friends ever since my mom and her mom met at the park playground when I was still very little. Ever since then, our parents and us kids have been close friends even though we now live far apart. Her family moved to Israel 3 years ago and recently came back for a visit for a few weeks. Once they moved to Israel, we have been communicating by email, Skype, and telephone. While they were here, we all went together on vacation to Palm Springs. While in Palm Springs, we hiked, swam and caught up on each other's lives.
Elite is the oldest girl of three. She has 2 younger sisters, Yasmine, who is 9 and Ileana who is 5. Elite was born in Israel, but her sisters were born in the US. They returned to Israel when Hannah, Michael, and Ileana were still small so the younger kids didn't remember each other. However, they quickly became reacquainted. Right before their departure back to Israel, Elite gave me half of a friendship necklace heart. We agreed to wear it all the time. We had a fantastic time together, and I wish it didn't have to end. I hope to see them again very soon!

Dear Miriam,
ReplyDeleteI love how you added captions to inform your readers about the photos.I marveled at your discriptive post. I recently had a very good friend of mine that moved 6 hours away from where I live. I connected with her the same way that you did, with phones,emailing an skype. I was planning on visiting my friend over the summer.I admire how you never gave up your friendship. I hope the same will apply for me.
Sincerely,
Emily
