3 words Sunday



I am truly, truly blessed. I have wonderful friends. They make me laugh, sometimes, they make me cry! I have TRUE friends. Friends that will be with me til the day I die. My life would be so empty, if not for my friends.

We started out the week, attending our best friend's daughter's 9th birthday. I was going to post a pic of all the kids together, but decided not to (privacy & all) - but it really made me think, when I looked at the photos. The kids adore each other. They can't wait for the next time they'll hang out. Its funny, they don't really have a choice - they HAVE to be friends, coz their parents are OUR good friends!!! The kids finished school on Wed - said "see ya" to their friends, who'll they'll see again in 2 weeks time. Thursday, was chores at home day!!! And Friday, we hooked up with some more friends to go to the movies, and saw Kung Fu Panda (yes, we'd already seen it - but its so worth seeing again!) Saturday, we attended a friend's wedding - to his best friend! We sat at the Reception, surrounded by friends. We laughed, and talked til we were hoarse! Danced til our hips hurt. And today, we picked the kids up from Mr T's sister's, and had lunch with her family - our friends. This afternoon, I called a friend that I haven't seen for about 6 weeks, and talked for 2 hours!!! (so unlike me... no! I like to talk... just not on the phone!!)

So, it's very fitting that my 3 words be about my friends. They are Gold. No actually, far more valuable than gold. They are irreplacable ~ priceless.

I Thank God for my FRIENDS.

Hey, I had a 'reading snafu' moment and kept seeing 'danced til our lips hurt'. I was very curious to know what kind of mambo you were doing ;0)

Amen sister... there are friends that I will be friends with forever that I have either made through this crazy wait or otherwise... there are friends I have made that I know in a matter of time down the track I will lose touch with but I do know for right now they are friends that are in our lives for a reason... whether to just help make it through the wait etc though I do love a lifelong friend... take care

You are fortunate to have such wonderful friends! I'm not surprised though, because you seem to give so much of yourself to others. Geesh, I love you and I've never seen you!
