In kindergarten your idea of a good friend was the person who let you
have the red crayon when all that was left was the ugly black one.
In
first grade your idea of a good friend was the person who went to the
bathroom with you and held your hand as you walked through the scary
halls.
In second grade your idea of a good friend was the person who helped you stand up to the class bully.
In third grade your idea of a good friend was the person who shared their lunch with you when you forgot yours on the bus.
In
fourth grade your idea of a good friend was the person who was willing
to switch square dancing partners in gym so you wouldn't have to be
stuck do-si-do-ing with Nasty Nicky or Smelly Susan.
