(There are more pictures of the 2 of them together and I plan to make little albums for them both.)
Grace and her dear friend Lydia first met almost 4 years ago, two 3 year old little girls who hit it off from the start. We live only 2 houses away from Lydia's family and at age 7, I would definitely call them best friends. And friends who are about as close as sisters. They giggle endlessly, play dress up, do crafts, spy on their little brothers, go to the same church and school, have sleepovers and even argue now and then like sisters. They also wear the same size in clothes and are in the same grade in school. I know that time and circumstance can change friendships, but I hope they will always be close. I love this special relationship that they share and Lydia's mother is one of my best friends. I consider Carla my little sister. We are extremely blessed to have them in our lives. :)

I found my BFF in the 1st grade and we remained friends.. then when we graduated she went to collage and I got pregnant and didn't get to go.. well then 15 years later.. we reconnected and it was just like we had never missed the last 15 years..
Hugs..
Love the photos and hope they continue to remain friends forever..
LOVE YA..
hope Will feels better soon..
Priceless......
so beautiful.....
So very sweet! LOVE the red suitcase...very cool.
I am so glad that they have each other.
Awh....they are so cute together. They remind me of Dahlia and her BFF. They don't live quite so close (wow, 2 doors down is so great)but I know they will be life-long buds.
BTW - love the almost blue in Grace's hair. So cool!
Amazing photo's! Perfect in every way!

These are gorgeous!!!!!!!! Gail these are fabulous!!!!!! I love the colors!!! I think these are my favorite pictures ever!!!
One word for this set of photos...Perfect! You have such an eye for capturing your subjects so perfectly, and for telling a story through your images. My oldest, who is seven, also has a best friend that he's been buds with since he was two. Such a neat thing to watch your children make {hopefully} lifelong friendships. Haven't 'seen' you in awhile in blog world. Hope all is well with you! :) Love, Angie
you captured friendship so beautifully!
Ok, so I clicked on your blog and was immediately overtaken with the awesome images of Grace and her bestie...THEN...the theme song from Forrest Gump kicks in and I start tearing up! You see, my very best friend and I have known one another for 31 years and friendships like that are God's gift to us for sure. I hope that Grace and her friend spend many, many years laughing and loving! These pics melt my heart and the music makes me want to cry!!!

These are AMAZING pictures!! Grace is so gorgeous and does such good modeling work, that I forget that she is still just a young girl!! These pictures really bring out that girl in her!! LOVE THEM!!!
Oh Gail, I just love these, I keep going back to look at them over and over. You totally captured their relationship, and their beauty :) I will have to try to take some photos of my children with their friends before we leave Australia.
