Friends


Lizzy and I had so much fun playing kickball at Civitan House that when I found an opening, I jumped on the chance to do it again. Kickball? Awesome folks? Rice Krispie treats covered in chocolate? What more do you need in life?


There's something about going back a second time. We all know that feeling. Its like a home feeling; like you know what to expect and all the energy you expended last time worrying about what to do next flows naturally now to enjoying the circumstances around you. We got to make some new friends, but some old friends were there to. And that is what I call them all. My friends. It only takes coming back again. The first time, you are just acquaintences. The next time, you are friends.


We laughed about getting out, about running over each other at the bases, about tricks and antics we used to get each other out. We are friends. I realized this isn't service.


No, this is just plain good people having fun. And some darn good Rice Krispie treats.
