Like a sister

What does that expression "like a sister" really mean, anyway?  Well, I can definitely say that my sister Aimee's best friend Patricia fits that bill.  They've been tight since meeting on the playground in the 5th grade, and she was a permanent fixture at our parents house, holidays, family gatherings and pretty much any occasion where good eats were readily available (you'd be surprised how much that tiny girl can eat! :).   Smart as a whip, entertaining and with an unmistakable hearty laugh, she is always fun to be around.   She recently accepted a teaching job in Maryland, and left yesterday to start that new chapter in her life.  We're proud of her and wish her the best, but our karoake showdowns will not be the same unless she can be here to participate.  Aimee misses you already, Trish!
