Some of the best things in life....

I would like to introduce you to a few very special people in my life. Sometimes I don't know where'd I'd be without them. They make me laugh, smile, cry, and feel special. This picture was taken this last trip home. I had to get together with my girls before I left (we really missed Patti at this one). I have shared some very special moments with these fine women. Alison and I have known each other for almost 20 years. We've shared some very special moments and without her I don't know where I'd be. Caryn and I lived together for a year and a half before I got married and moved. Let me tell you, the best conversations have either been first thing in the morning or shared watching all day marathons of Alias or Lost in our pajamas!!! Mhairi, well what can you say. Our landlord never knew if Caryn & I were home, but he knew when we were because he'd hear Mhairi laughing!! Then there's Jo Kelly the level headed one with the two most adorable boys whom I miss terribly. Her pantry will never be the same as when I unpacked it in their new house!! And Carole Bate.....well when I called her one night needing a "pastor", we met at Starbucks and chatted for 2 hours in the mini-van parked in the parking lot. These women have been placed in my life with a purpose and for that I am truly grateful. So thank you Alison, Caryn, Mhairi, Jo, and Carole for always being there and for all your love and support. It has meant the world to me. I love you all so much!!!
