Dear Baby … Sometimes when I look at you, I wonder who your friends will be someday. You’ll meet other kids at school and in the neighborhood, and of all those kids, a few will find a special place in your heart. One day when you’re young, or maybe not-so-young, you’ll meet the person who you’ll come to call your best friend. Most of the time, you’ll have something in common with these people. Often, that’s what makes the friendship connection. Maybe you’ll both like crafts or soccer or the same cartoon. But the real depth of friendship comes not in the things you share, but in the differences. You’ll learn to agree to disagree and to like each other anyway. And through it all, you’ll learn how to meet in the middle. Friendship is one of the richest gifts you can give someone. Today I promise to nurture you and help you grow up knowing how to be a friend.
