Friendship, for me, has changed as I have grown up. Matured, I guess. This woman has shown me what it means to be a sister in Christ and a true friend.
Honestly, my mind is blown watching how we were strangers who met while going through stressful pregnancies and then coming out on the other side of it all with beautiful sons and a person to have with you who understands.
And as we learn how to be wives and mothers we can laugh at the strange situations that come and pray for one another when it is hard.
I didn't know that I would not have to be alone here as a young wife and mother.
I guess that what I am trying to say is that God listens to our prayers and he does not always respond in the way that we expect.
There I was, happy to have my husband, but the understanding and fellowship from my piers was lacking. When I asked for help He sent me a friend and she needed a friend that she wasn't looking for too.
And our little group of 6 (me+her+hubbies+babies) have been there for birthdays...
...and hangouts...
I almost feel like someone should slap me for not realizing how lucky I am to have a Lord who is actively working in my life.
All in all lets just say... today was nice.
