Blessed by God

This isn't a blog about my crazy life with 3 boys.....that hasn't changed at all :)  But this is more of a time for me to share with you how truly blessed I am with amazing friendships.  Some of these friendships were created for me before I was even born with family and family friends.  Some were created for me in elementary school, middle school, high school, and college.  Some of these were created for me when I married in to an amazing community.  Some were created by different jobs I have worked at, activities my boys are involved in, or by marriages.  Some of these friendships were created through crisis times in my life.  But all of these were created for a reason and by the grace of God.

After a rough day yesterday, I laid in bed last night feeling truly blessed by the friends that I have in my life.  I don't know what I would do without them to get through days like yesterday.  I know that they will always have my back (any my boys') and always listen to me - most of the time agreeing with me but also letting me see things in a different light.  They have a way of knowing just when I need that text message, snapchat picture, comment, or inside joke to cheer me up.  They know when I need them to be quiet and listen or when I need their advice.  They know my trials and tribulations as I go through my day to day life.  I even have those friends that I know will take my secrets to the grave with them :)

Friends are people that we take for granted in life! I fully intend to not do that any longer (or at least try not to).  Whether you are a friend I see or talk to every day, one that I only see once or twice a year, one that I haven't even met yet, or one that is family and you have no choice but to be friends with me (ha) ----- please know how special you are to me.  I cannot imagine my life without you!  So blessed!!!

Faith, Family, Friends!!!
