soul sisters.

Chuck E. Cheese’s where a Mom can be a Kid!

I’ve been blessed to share in a wonderful friendship with my “soul sister” Libby. We took the kids to this germy place for the morning and it was fun just chatting.

She is such a special and unique person and I was pleasantly surprised when I really got to know her. In the past I have been somewhat cautious when it came to making friends here because I had been hurt before and I sure wasn’t going to let that happen again. I decided when I first moved here that if I didn’t get too close to anyone then there was no way I could possibly get hurt. I soon realized that if I wanted those soul satisfying friendships in my life, I needed to try and let people in and really invest my time, energy and even risk into my friendships.

I am so thankful for the women God has put into my life here. I will always cherish my friendships from other places in my life but, sometimes just having someone to chat with face to face makes you feel really connected.

I’m not a writer, in fact I hate writing anything this long because it usually has a million grammatical errors and never comes out the way I want. Libby is a fellow blogger and I know she will be reading this so I just wanted to let her know,

I’m so thankful for you Lib!

Thankful for you...and I loved how much face-time we got with each other last week!!!
