Firends

To all those that I call friend. Thank you for being there for me all the times that I have needed you.

My sisters, who are my friends by choice:
Sarah-Thank you for "getting me"
Katie- Thank you for crafting with me
Becky- Thank you for trusting me with your secrets

My parents
Mom- who has become one of my best friends:
Thank you for listening to me and helping my family
Dad- Thank you for helping me and teaching me

My Library friends, who I would have never met if we did not have kids:
Sara, Ree, Stacy - Thank you for play dates and someone to talk to during the day other than my kids. Also thank you for sharing ideas with me about raising kids.

My Great friends
Wendy Thank you for the time you give me, for letting me be open with you and for sharing your honesty with me.
Kate Thank you for recognizing me in a crowd and for being an instant friend, I look forward to the memories to be made.

My best friend
Will- My best friend on this earth, I love you and thank you for all that you do for me and our family. This post would be too long if I put all the things that I wanted to thank you for.

To anyone whose name is not mentioned here and I have ever called you friend, I think of the song I teach my Daisy Girl Scouts Make new friends, here are the lyrics (we have only learned the first 2 verses, but we will learn more eventually).

Make new friends,
but keep the old.
One is silver,
the other is gold.

A circle is round,
it has no end.
That's how long,
I will be your friend.

A fire burns bright,
it warms the heart.
We've been friends,
from the very start.

You have one hand,
I have the other.
Put them together,
We have each other.

Silver is precious,
Gold is too.
I am precious,
and so are you.

You help me,
and I'll help you
and together
we will see it through.

The sky is blue
The Earth is green
I can help
to keep it clean

Across the land
Across the sea
Friends forever
We will always be


Thank you for sharing part of yourself with me, I thank you.

Awww- that made my heart smile! I'm so thankful for you, too... you're so funny and "get me," too. And I finally found someone who talks as much as me! I can't wait to get better so we can hang out more!
