I’m five years old , and my mother is washing the kitchen floor . I’m telling her about a new girl in school , and she suddenly looks up at me and says , “ Who are your two best friends ? ”

I’m not sure what to say . I’ve been friends with Jill since I was three or so , and I really like Jaime , a friend in kindergarten .

“ Jill and Jaime .”

“ Well , what about Karen and Cindy ?”

“ I don’t know who their best friends are ,” I say .

“ No ,” she says . “ I’m saying , why aren’t they your best friends ?”

“ But they’re my sisters .”

“ Yes , but they can still be your best friends . Friends may come and go , but your sisters will always be there for you .”

At that time , the idea of my two sisters being my closest friends seemed strange to me . We fought all the time over toys , food , attention , and what to watch on television . How could my sisters be my best friends ?

My sister Cindy and I ran the New York City Marathon together , side-by-side , even holding hands when we crossed the finish line . The three of us trust each other with our greatest secrets .

It was twenty-three years ago that my mother first asked me who my two best friends were . Today she doesn’t have to . She already knows .
