What Makes a Friend so Special

by Hope McCaffrey

Becky is one of my best friends. I've known her since I was a baby.

When I was 5, 6, and 7, she babysat me.

Now she is in college and I miss her a lot. Her little sister, Kristen, who is in high-school, baby-sits us now. She is fun, too.

Becky will always be special to me. Becky is fun to be around because she tickled me a lot. We went to the movies a lot together.

Becky and I like each other a lot and will always care for each other.

We had fun at our birthdays. I like Becky a lot and I know she'll be back soon.

We would tackle her. It was fun.

She makes me feel warm inside. When I turned 3 years old, we got a pinata and Becky broke it. It was fun. That's the way Becky is special to me.
