My Wonderful Examples...

Friends are like balloons;
once you let them go, you might not get them
back. Sometimes we get so busy with our own
lives and problems that we may not even notice
that we've let them fly away. Sometimes we are so
caught up in who's right and who's wrong that we
forget what's right and wrong.. Sometimes we just
don't realize what real friendship means until it
is too late. I don't want to let that happen so
I'm going to tie you to my heart so I never lose
you.

I received an email from a friend today and this quote was in it... It really got my gears turning. Lately I have been so busy with school, work, and family that I feel like I have forgot about my friends and I do not give them the credit they deserve.
One of my favorite things about my life is how vast my friends are. I have friends in so many places and each one of them holds a place in my heart!
I think my friends are the most wonderful people in this world. They are so amazing and I feel so blessed to have them in my life. I am lucky enough to have friends that care about me and want the best for me. They have high standards and love the Lord with all their hearts, which in turn, makes me want to be a better person. I cherish their big hearts and shining examples.
"A girlfriend is probably the only person in this world, who understands exactly what you are saying even though if you may not really be talking."
My girlfriends are the best! They know me far too well and they can make the grayest sky seem blue. They have my back when it seems like the world turned away from me. I love that we can have a good time no matter where we are and we can find joy in the simplest of things. We laugh, we cry, and we make the greatest of memories together.... Thanks Girls... I love you all!
"Life is partly what we make it, and partly what is made by the friends whom we choose."
My guys friends are my protectors and my brothers! Never a dull moment with any of them. I feel at home and at ease when they are around. Between their never ending business ideas, well thought out plans, and amazing hearts, I am convinced that they will one day rule the world. Someday they are going to make great husbands and amazing fathers!
I don't know where I would be with out any of them in my life! I thank god everyday for each and everyone of them. You all know who you are and I Love you! Thank you for always being there for me and thank you for helping me become a better person each and everyday....

Pure Joy...

 

Every member of the family has a unique role to play in the family unit. In every family these roles are different. A role that an aunt may play is that of helping parents getting along with their children. Much like grandparents, an aunt is not subjectively involved in what happens in the family. She is often able to see things in a more objective way. She also may be able to build relationships with her nieces and nephews and give them a place to get away from the family for a while. An aunt that is committed to her nieces and nephews can play an invaluable part in their lives. I love these two kids, as well as my little Buddha(Dilyn), Tatum, and Ryker. They light up my life in so many ways and they will forever be threaded into my heart!
