Friends

If there was one blessing in my life that has been a constant, it would friends. I truly believe that who I am today is in part due to the friends I've had. At every stage of life-- beginning clear back in kindergarten, I have had friends who were exactly what I needed at that time. Whether it was in junior high, high school, beauty school, living in Logan, living in Salt Lake, Kirksville and now Ohio- I have met and been blessed with the friendships of some amazing women. Each person has been evidence to me of a loving Heavenly Father- who is mindful of me and what I need.

I have loved living in Ohio-- not just because I live a block away from Sawmill which contains every store I could ever want-- but because of the friends I have made here. We have weekly playgroup, monthly craft night and texts here and there throughout the week. I always look forward to being with them- they make me laugh and cry (for good reasons) they inspire me, they have been answers to prayers- on more than one occasion (and especially this past month). Today we found out some FANTASTIC news (to come at a later post)-and just a half an hour after finding out- a few of them were standing on our porch with balloons, noise makers and a slinky's for the kids. I love these girls here-- I love what they have taught me and what they have brought to my life. Whether we stay here or if we move away for residency (we find out Thursday) these girls have made me a better person.
