know what best friends are for?
They are for tacking on a whole extra week to their vacation JUST so they can drive 10 hrs out of their way to spend that extra week with YOU.
They are for making your kids laugh.....
just hangin' out together.....
being mommies and doing crafts together....
going to see movies that SHOULD HAVE BEEN, BUT AREN'T good, together....
playing tourist together...
spending five hours in the mall with this whole crew and loving it together....
talking, dreaming, playing, cooking, etc.....together.
but best friends are the best because most of all, you can just be KNOWN with them.
there's a level of comfort, support and peace that comes with friends like these -
ah.....
and because I was so comfortable, supported and at peace, I kinda checked out of life.
I did close to seven loads of laundry (we have one of those huge machines) after they left and I smiled through them all remembering why it was that I'd checked out.
If I wasn't here, didn't answer an email or skipped out on responsibilities....I'm not sorry.
It was a beautiful time, we all needed it!

That movie SHOULDA been good...but in the end...it didn't matter a lick because we all got to hang and that was way better!
I MISS YOU! Thank you, for everything. It was a blast. A big ole chaotic blast of fun. Loved playing tourist with you and getting to see the Archives, and the Pentagon. And shopping for hours. And talking for hours. And just being with you and my favorite little girls for days on end.
I am deeply blessed.
And I think that photo of Isaak with his sister wives needs to be framed! Oh, the looks...and comments. Bah ha ha!
