Tonight was really cool. See, I have these girlfriends. They're all women I've known from being involved in MOPS (Mothers of PreScholers)over the course of the past six years. I haven't been able to go to the meetings anymore since I'm working now. Anyway, a group of us try to get together in the evenings when we can. We talk about everything and nothing. We eat and laugh and try to figure out how to be better moms, wives and women. It's quite wonderful.
In the wake of my family's tradgedy this summer, we talked a lot about my family and how we're doing and how this changes life and how we see it. I'm a talker so for me, tonight was very therapeutic. It amazes and impresses me that five busy women with their own stress and craziness would take the time and mental energy to be there for a friend and emotionally invest in a heart-wrenching topic.
I look forward to many more girls' nights out to come. Thank you Heidi, Ellen, McKenzie, Wendy and Kerri for being there. I am so blessed to know all of you.
