Ava's best friend

Ava is a loner. She gets this from her parents. She did bond with one girl at daycare that she has known since she was 6 months old. Her name is Emily. They have been best friends since Ava could speak (about 2.5 years old). Dave and I always question the strength of childhood friendships but Emily is all Ava talks about. Now that Ava has started Kindergarten, Emily goes to a different private school (which KILLS me b/c if she had gone to public school, they would have gone to the same school). We were able to get the girls together a couple of weeks ago at a local festival. The girls were in heaven seeing each other. I have never seen Ava so happy. It made me a little sad.
