i'm so excited for tonight!!!
why?
tonight the C.O.W.S. are reuniting :o)
what are the C.O.W.S.?
well, it's a club of sorts.
we call ourselves the:
C-chicks
O-on
W-wheels
it's made of myself, my sister (Meredith), my friend of 20 plus years (Deborah Anne) & another friend of 20 plus years Heather.
i love having life-long friends!!
seriously, i could cry right now thinking about how specials these friends are to me.
we have all been through soooooooooooooo much together.
it all started back about 5 1/2 years ago when we started getting together on Monday nights each week.
yes,
every.
single.
week.
we would go eat somewhere and hangout for a couple of hours
and
one night...i think D.A. said we are the chicks on wheels... :o)
so, we nicknamed ourselves the C.O.W.S.
yes, we have no problem with calling ourselves the cows!
we think of it as a rather endearing term.
for a long time we got together every week.
then D.A. got married.
i had a baby.
my sis got married.
we moved away.
you know...life happened.
but, through it ALL we have always made time for each other.
we aren't an exclusive group...others have joined in here and there
and
we love having others join the fun.
these girls have prayed me through lots of things and vice versa!!!
i haven't seen them in so long and i'm super duper excited for out time together tonight :o)
i love you girls.
the lord has truly blessed me with the most amazing friends.
there is nothing in this world that can compare to 'true friend' who are there for you no matter what life brings.
no matter what changes may come.
Meredith:
i love you more than words.
you have been the best sister in the world.
i love that we are going through life with similar paths of being married and raising our children together.
you are an amazing wife & mother.
judah is evidence of this.
he is the BEST baby i have ever been around.
you have prayed me through some tough times.
i'm so thankful that we are sisters and best friends.
Deborah Anne:
we have been through so much together.
you are precious to me.
you are a true friend.
no matter where life takes us...we stay connected.
its like the distance and time isn't even there.
i cherish this b/c i know many ppl don't have that.
i am blessed to call you friend.
i love it when you talk about scott.
you praise him.
and he is a blessed man to have you as his wife :)
and those babies of yours...
do they know how much you have sacrificed for them?
you are a wonderful mom.
i love you friend.
Heather:
i have loved living this life with you in it.
you make me smile.
you make me laugh.
you are always honest with me and i LOVE that.
we have prayed each other through many, many things.
you, too, are a true friend.
everyone who meets you...loves you!!!
i am awed how you pursued the lord in waiting for a husband.
the road wasn't easy...but, it never is.
you have one of the sweetest most gentle guys.
you and will are so great together.
i love how when life throws you a curve ball...
you always say to me:
the lord has something better :o)
you are an amazing wife and friend.
i love you!!
i'm going to by highlighting different friendships throughout the end of this month and into May.
friendships are treasures from the Lord.
i want my friends to know what they mean to me and how special they are.
