happy tears

I have always been sort of moody, with my ups and downs. If you know me IRL (in real life) then you know if I don't eat I get very cranky (this is putting it mildly). In my family, we call it the wim-wams; sounds like it could be the name of a rock band! But, I am getting off topic. Today is an UP day in my journey to motherhood on this rocky IF roller coaster. Two days ago, was a down day that seemed leave that little gray cloud over my head.

Today, I got a surprise phone call from one of my forever friends. They are the friends in my life that I don't talk to every day, but that as soon as I talk to them we pick up right where we left off. These friends don't care that you don't remember birthdays/anniversaries; they know you deep down to the part that makes you-you! These women have left an imprint on my life, I am a better person through knowing them.

Julie, you touched my heart by calling today. Your sweet words and prayers are greatly appreciated. I think of you often too, especially when I see ladybugs & bumblebees, or hear a dixie chick song (remember how we cordinated outfits down to the matching black and white shoes for their concert!), or when I see a daisy-i remember how we taped up the border in our room and it was the cutest dorm room on the XO hall!

I remember how we giggled in our room when Kevin first asked you out, and how you wore my pink shirt on your valentines date with him! I remember how beautiful you were on your wedding day and how I got to drive you to the church! I remember your beautiful pregnant belly before we knew McLean and I remember McLean crying in Belk's the day you found out you sold your Charlotte house.

I love that you are reading my blog and following along with me...one of these days I am going to call you with some exciting news!!!
