I am not the type of girl that has a ton of friends but I do have a few close friends. I normally get along a lot better with guys. I have however realized lately that you can never underestimate the power of friendship. I have a friend and we both hate drama but lately our lives have been a little bit of drama ever since we got back from our little weekend getaway but no matter how much drama is in our lives I will love her no matter what. We talked with each other a lot about sometime we call "safe place" and even though our husbands are our safe place you also need that in a friend. Just someone that knows who you are and all the crazy things about you and yet they still love and care about you in spite of your craziness. I love the word "safe place" now because I know what it means in our relationship and I know that I can have the most crazy thoughts, feelings, attitude, or even take things out on her and she understands where I am coming from and how I am feeling and if she does not know how I am feeling she is there just to listen to me, and I know she already knows this but I will be there for her also. This past year I had one friend that knew the hard time that I was going through with the first miscarriage and it was right around the time that she got pregnant with her little rykie-boy but she was there for me but God also had another friendship in the works and about 2 weeks before my second miscarriage He planted a seed and had a relationship started with Lisa that I never would have imagined in a million years to be what it is 8 months later but all I can say is that God planned it from the beginning and that is amazing to me how blessed I am to be a child of the King.
Well as of yesterday I was 33 weeks and I don't have a single picture of me pregnant to post but Lisa does have a picture of me on my shower invitations, speaking of the shower it is next saturday and I am totally excited :) I can not wait I know that the color themes are blue and brown which is totally cute. So anyways I can not wait for that special day and I will for sure be posting pictures of that wonderful day :)
Thank you for being a safe place for me. I am fascinated & ever thankful for our friendship - drama or no drama (wont that be nice!!!)we are stuck with each other. ;) I cant wait for your shower either - STAR RSVPing, people!!!!
