Kiddo with her best friends from the Mount Waverley North Primary School. Fom left – Ishwari, kiddo
, Betti and Annie. Betty is especially close to kiddo and they frequent each other’s homes. Annie would not be joining them for high school, probably going to Vintona Girls’ instead.
It’s great kiddo has such close friends. She is a loyal type, and would stick by here friends no matter what – sometimes to our chagrin. It is a challenge to strike that balance between encouraging life long friendships and blind loyalty. I guess the latter has very limited place in true friendship. I know one of these days she would be hurt (again) but I guess that is a price one pays for wearing one’s heart on the sleeve. What did they say – better to love and lost than not to have loved at all? That applied to friendship too, I am sure
