A friendship by e-mail

I never thought a friendship could develop by e-mail but it has. I knew this woman from the Church of the Six Flags but she came across as nobody I wanted to associate with. Was I ever wrong. She ended up in my prayer group and then could not continue so we e-mailed each other. That is how I really got to know her. She is hilariously funny. I encouraged her to start a blog. She finally did. Yesterday we had lunch together. Seems like we always knew each other. These are the friendships one cherishes.
