Friends

I really have been blessed

by the greatest of friends

They have taught me

to be strong

to be happy

to be healthy

in every way

They have taught me

how to be divorced

how to be a single mom

how to yoga

how to serve

how to laugh

and have fun

They have

Taken me to the ballet...

for Valentines Day, because they knew I would be alone.

Brought me flowers, just because.

Fed me Sunday night dinner, because they knew it was my loneliest day.

Taken me shopping and for pedicures and shopping some more,

because somedays, you just need to not worry about your account.

Made me green drinks and gluten free pizzas and cookies and

hand made necklaces

to remind me of the little things.

They have

Listened and listened and listened.

Those are the most important things.

Each of them have filled that spot

in their own amazing way.
