I'm a Christian a Mother, Wife, Sister, Grandmother, Aunt, Cousin and your Friend. My Husband and I are now empty nesters, share a blended family of 4 kids and 8 grandkids. We also parent a small 10 lb. mutt we rescued almost 3 years ago. She's a joy and known as Ms. Personality Plus by some. We also are proud parents of thee Aquatic RES (Turtles.)They actually give us pleasure...Don't ask! Recently, our Doberman of 15 years 6 weeks and three days passed away on January 21, 2010. He was the best dog/friend/child ever! His goal in life was to please us and he did! RIP boy. Blogging is new to me and I hope to share bits and pieces of my life here, mostly for my kids and grandkids. But, I hope you enjoy it as well. My life may not be exciting but I'm happy!

GIRLS IN MY CIRCLE, Aren't we glad to have each other...

Every now and then I get an e-mail which I think is worth sharing.  On the other hand, we have received the same e-mails from someone else along the line over the years, Sooo, I have decided to use this platform to share some of the e-mails I find to be heart felt, funny or I just feel it was worth passing on rather than always sending them thru e-mails.   Here I go:


   GIRLS IN MY CIRCLE

When I was little,
I used to believe in the concept of one best friend,
And then I started to become a woman.
And then I found out that if you allow your heart to open up,
God would show you the best in many friends.

One friend is needed when you're going through things with your man.
Another friend is needed when you're going through things with your mom.
Another will sit beside you in the bleachers as you delight in your children and their activities.

Another when you want to shop, share, heal, hurt, joke, or just be.
One friend will say, 'Let's cry together,'
Another , 'Let's fight together,'
Another , 'Let's walk away together.'   
 

One friend will meet your spiritual need,
Another your shoe fetish,
Another your love for movies,
Another will be with you in your season of confusion,
Another will be your clarifier,
Another the wind beneath your wings.

But whatever their assignment in your life,
On whatever the occasion,
On whatever the day,
Or wherever you need them to meet you with their gym shoes on and hair pulled back,
Or to hold you back from making a complete fool of yourself .
Those are your best friends.


It may all be wrapped up in one woman, But for many, it's wrapped up in several..
One from 7th grade,
One from high school,
Several from the college years,
A couple from old jobs,
On some days your mother,
On some days your neighbor,
On others, your sisters,
And on some days, your daughters. And on some days your Mother - In - Law


So whether they've been a friend for 20 minutes or 20+ years,
AND ONLY IF YOU'D LIKE TO,
Pass this on to the women that God has placed in your life
To make a difference. 





Thanks for being in my circle!

Yes, SOON! Yesterday, I was out walking my doggie and heard your babies in the backyard playing ever so sweetly and almost knocked on your door. Let's see if we can find time over the next few days to get together.
