I just wanted to give a Happy Birthday "shout-out" to my dear dear friend Lela! You really deserve more than a blog entry dedication and I hope you don't mind the meager expression of love and gratitude I have for you!
Thank you for making me laugh (til I cry), crying with me (until I can laugh again), being a true confidant (in a world full of big mouths), being honest(when the truth can hurt), sharing in the joys of parenting (b/c the joys are pretty darn big), sharing in the trials of parenting (b/c the trials make us wiser and stronger...so they say), being there in any and every capacity (even when the capacity calls at 2 am and spit up or cleaning poop is involved),freely giving of all you have (including but not limited to lawn mowers, trailers, clothing, movies,food, shelter, vacation spot, toys, Wi's, your time, your energy.
I love you Lela and your friendship. Thanks for enduring late, cold night runs, VERY rainy beach runs (do you see a theme here), sitting on my counter late night chats, sharing kids, sharing husbands (in a platonic way... hee hee).. You are amazing and truly a gift (one of the best I have ever been given). The memories we share are wonderful and the ones yet to be made anticpated.
May you be showered with abundant blessing this year! Happy Birthday!
