November 8 ~ Day 8

I am thankful for my FRIENDS.  I won't name them one by one but will say I've learned a lot in the past few years about friendships and trusting.  I no longer trust easily and I choose my friends wisely.  I have realized more in the past year than ever that I after seeing who to trust and call a true friend; I've found some AMAZING friends!  I am a very cautious person, I've been hurt by people that I cared for so much that it made me never want to trust again.  However, thru that hurt and loss of trust I've found new friends that are true friends.
I am thankful for my friends that are good listeners.  I am thankful for my friends that help me reach my goals, and share the desire to reach the same goals.  I am thankful to my friends that make me smile.  I am thankful for my friends that when I hug them hug me tighter in return.  I am thankful for my friends that pray for me.  I am thankful for my friends that I cannot talk to for a period of time, yet we can still pick up where we left off.  I am thankful for my friends that challenge me to be better, stronger, and to grow in my faith.  I am thankful for my friends that trust me with their problems.  I am thankful for my friends that let me help them, and that show up to help me when I least expect it.  I am thankful for my friends that ask me to go on a lunch date :), I am thankful for my friends that send encouragements when I need it most.  I am thankful to my friends that love my kids and help me out when I'm in need.....
I can go on for awhile but I've seen and realized that my friends are more like family. I am beyond blessed with some of the BEST friends a girl could ask for!  I hope I am as good of a friend to them as they are to me.  Don't know what I'd do without them...
Blessed!!!!
