"Lodi, look at the stars!" Her 6 year old voice chimed, "my favorite star is that one!" She pointed to the brightest star we could see.
My nerdy 7-year-old self corrected her, "That's not a star, Abby. That's a planet."
"What planet?"
"Venus." I answered.
Abby's voice perked up, "Lets promise on Venus that we'll be best friends forever."
"Ooo okay!"
"Lodi, I promise on Venus to be your best friend forever."
"Abigail, I promise on Venus to be your best friend forever," I said.
"Now we're officially best friends forever. Since today is your birthday, every time you have a birthday, we should renew our best friend promises on Venus."
"Deal."
