Thank God for girlfriends!

I made this card today while I was making birthday cards for two of my very best friends who are turning 40 this month. I'm not sure they realize how much they mean to me. I do try to tell them, but being away so much and spending 11 or so hours alone everyday, I appreciate them so much more than they can understand!

 I love getting a call from them and just talking. Grace and I share verses from our Bible reading that we liked....funny how sometimes we circled the exact same verses and other days not even one verse matched. I'm learning so much from you this Summer, Grace! You make me healthier with each phone call as we almost always laugh at some point in the conversations! The Bible says "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine". We should be so healthy! Love you!

Susan made a point to stop by here with the teen girls on their way home from youth conference. What a blessing that was to me! Enjoyed the time with them ! She also rode out here with me when I came back after my week at home, and then drove my car back! What a blessing. Thanks, Susan for the fun roadtrips! Love you!

I told Cheyenne years ago that girlfriends are so important. I only wish she would have had opportunity to have more girlfriends. She ask me how a bride chooses her bridesmaid. I told her it is usually her best friend. She said "Mom, will you be my maid of honor someday"? Yep, I cried, but I am priviledged to be her friend. She is an amazing friend! I love you Chey, more than ever!

Of course, my mom has been my friend the longest! She has always been there for me and we laugh about things that we'd never say to anyone else! You know what I'm talking about, Mom....I know you are smiling! I love you!
