My friends are my estate

I just received a sweet baby gift in the mail from one of my mom's dearest friends of {get this} over 56 years! That's right! She got us the cutest quilt/blanket that I know Finley will spend a lot of time playing on and making memories.

How precious is it to have a friendship that has lasted that long? They have endured marriages, divorces, babies, now grand babies, numerous celebrations and many struggles with each other?! I can't wait for the day that my children receive a gift from one of my friends for their children. So sweet! I already have been blessed with Finley getting to play with my friend of 28 years little boy who is only 2 months older than him. Praying they will have a sweet friendship like we have - no matter the miles!

Here is what the blanket looks like for all of you nosey folks. I think it's sweet she noted that she was friends with my mom - like I could ever forget! :
