nothing but love

So an old friend and I were chatting the other day online and I pointed him here. (it's only my 3rd time - I know, I know - I'm such a wimp). Anyway, I didn't really think that he'd actually come and read it but guess what? He did! At least part of it. And do you know what his comment was... here, I'll quote it for you,

Who's Arleigh, boy do they love you tons.
.
Isn't that just a sweet observation? I told him she was my adopted sister because that's what I call her and then I realized that you know what, it's true, and it makes me very happy.
.
Then, like some sort of cosmic intersecting triangle thing I actually remembered to go to the post office & pick up my week's mail (my mailbox fills after, oh I don't know, 2 days and I forgot to pick it up - oops) and guess what? There was a nice, handwritten note in there just for me. It made me all misty eyed and thinking about it now, I'm getting all sappy-weepy at work.
.
I have very wonderful friends and if I don't tell you all enough I'm sorry.
.
They say that you can't pick your family and they're right, but wrong, at the same time. Biology family does not make. I have picked people who are more my family than people I'm related to genetically and I love them. They're the best kind of family.
