National Best Friends Day: 
Life wouldn’t be the same without best friends. They’re the friends that can be counted on to be there at a moment’s notice. The ones who love, laugh, support, and cherish – in both good and bad times. Some Best Friends are furry; others are not!  Best Friends are gifts that keep on giving! 

Truly best friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget.
