Happy Birthday!

Today I'm dedicating my post to my very good friend, S. It's her birthday.

I've known S since we were in kindergarten, and I'm going to age us both and say we've been friends for a quarter century. 25 years. Longer than some people are married.

S and I have had some really fun times together. No matter what has happened in our lives, we've always managed to stay in touch with each other.

She is also one of the most creative and caring mommies I know. She has three of the most beautiful girls ever, and they are so smart, well-adjusted and considerate people. I know they'll grow up to be brilliant, gorgeous women.

I admire S so very much in her mommy capability. Motherhood seemed to come very natural to her. She handles monsters under the bed with ease, can handle pukey stomachs with grace, and runs her household with military precision. If ever I'm concerned I'm not handling a situation with M in the right way, I think...WWSD?

From running around my backyard playing pretend, to babysitting younger siblings in runaway cars, to laughing on the phone about the craziest of things, I could not have prayed for a friend as amazing as S.

I can't wait to see what the next 25 brings. Love ya!
