old friends...
well, we were kidding about the fact that we are getting old-25 now (and turning 26 over the course of the next 6 months)!! i traveled with fawn to boise on friday and headed back sunday after spending some time with my "college" friends. i can't believe it's been 7 years since i started college and met these girls. it was so refreshing to catch up and reminisce, laughing and crying together. it's crazy to see where life has taken us--me getting ready to be a stay-at-home wife (gave my notice last thursday!!) and hopefully have a baby in the near future, fawn teaching/blessing a class of 4 year olds, britt working as an NP at a well-known oncology unit and owning a beautiful home with her hubby (i've heard, can't wait to see it!), and jeannie fresh out of the peace corps and using her psychology degree to work with kids and adolescents. who would've thunk it?? although we had lots of laughs, we also comforted each other as we share our disappointments, our longings, and our wanting to know we're in God's will. i pray we continue to cultivate our relationships in such a way that we can always share so openly, even with some distance between us. i don't want it to come to a christmas card every other year and maybe a phone call or text on the birthdays. God, help me to do my part to maintain and nurture all of the precious relationships in my life...
