Let me tell you about my best friend...

Today is a special day...today is my best friend's birthday!  When I think about her, so many things come to mind and honestly... it is even hard to put all those feelings into words. When I think about the qualities anyone would want in a best friend - she possesses every single one of them! 

For me... BTF is my partner in crime, a person I can laugh with (or at), cry with, and even yell at if that's what it takes for me to feel better.  She is the one that when everything is going wrong in the world (for either of us) we turn up the music and dance it out. She is the one that I can show up at her house uninvited and feel like she has been expecting me all day long. She is the one that when I am 2,000 miles from home sitting in a hospital with my dad who calls me and says, "I can be on a flight in 2 hours, and I will come sit with you" and she truly meant EVERY word! She is the one that when your kids get hurt (and you don't do blood) who goes into super mom mode to take care of your kids and clean up the blood. She is my honky-tonkin', last minute road-trippin', festival goin' partner.  She is the one who shows up at the hospital to sit with my mom and daughter, and hands me a Frosty after surgery just to make me feel better.  She is the one with will pray for you and with you. She is my forever person who I can be silly with and always be nothing except myself!  She is my rock and some days my life line to reality...the one who always shoots me straight (even if I don't like it). 

So...today I celebrate her!  I thank God for her every day, and I thank Him for putting her in my life.  I hope that  everyone is lucky enough to have a friend like her! 

Happy Birthday BTF... I will always love you more!!
