Middle of July?

Can't believe it's already the 18th. Tomorrow I get to spend some time with one of my very best friends- Cynthia. She is a beautiful mom of two boys and married to one of Mike's best high school friends. I met her in college and we were roommates for nearly 2 years. If I could describe her using 2 words they would be integrity and honesty. The kind of honesty that only displays its self through love. Not the kind of hurtful honesty that can pierce you- ever. She has lived far away for a long time and she is in town right now. I love being with her because she is an uplifting person and I we can always pick up right where we left off, just like we have never been apart. I will enjoy seeing her and watching our kids play :)

Another of my best friends, Cami, had a baby boy a few weeks ago. I wish I was able to spend time with her and her kiddos. I met Cami in college as well- in the music dept. We started the same year, both playing trumpet, but she later rebelled and turned to percussion :) Cami is also a very dear friend to me who I miss very much. She is an amazing crafter and I love her creations. She's also a super mom! She is the type of person that will never cause contention and is always a big help. I love her a lot.. She was married 3 months before me and moved to Oregon. Now she is back in Utah but lives 8 hours from me. When we get the chance to see each other we always take it.

Another friend of mine from here, Kristi, has been a close confidant and now she is moving as well....to Texas! I am in denial about her leaving. She has a personality much like mine and I can talk to her for hours if given the chance. She is a diligent person with two very awesome kids (one of which is our house/cat sitter when we go out of town). I will miss them all so much, but they are off to a better future.

I don't know how this post started. My best friends in life have been a great strength to me and I love them all dearly. I have had a lot as time has passed that have gotten me through many things. I am out of touch with a lot of them, but each has brought something unique to my life that only they could and I have learned many lessons from them. I hope you all know who you are. You have made life better for me. Thank you.

I feel like I am an angel with your description of me. :) You are such a great person/Mom/friend. I wish I could run my household as well as you. As Cami said you are a great example to me, and I was picking up tips while I was there!
