I wasn't sure what to expect when we arrived in Tennessee. I knew Katie and I would pick up where we left off. The bag of Doritos was waiting. Our friendship is comfortable that way. We know each other so well, our distance in miles has never really made an impact. We still laugh the same way we did when we were teenagers. And we can as easily delve into more serious conversations, too.
I worried more about our daughters. We would be there for five days, and I wanted them to get along. I wanted them to find friendship in each other. I knew it might take some warming up, but I hoped they would find each other.
What I wasn't prepared for is how quickly they embraced. On the ride from the airport, the giggling began. And it didn't stop the entire visit. They spent endless hours together and never seemed to get tired of each other. They were a sight to behold. They were silly, helpful, loving and sweet. It is a visit none of us will forget. Tatum already is asking when we can go back — when will we see her new BFFs again.
