thank you.

thank you my sweet dear friend for the gracious gift you gave us this last month. it was so selfless and i can't believe you and your family would be so gracious to serve us in the manner you did (yet i can because i know you), but it was God's perfect timing in that it took care of us when we needed it and it was so very much appreciated. even the flowers brought warmth to our home. it touched our hearts and graced our life, just as your friendship has for almost 9 years. you were there at the beginning of us, to celebrate at the union of us and even flew miles to meet our first little one and comforted us and cried with us when we lost our second. you have believed in us and supported us and loved us from afar and prayed for us unconditionally and been there for us, even miles away, to share in the grieving of our sydney. we will always be threaded together with that bond and love and our years together. we love you and are blessed to call you our friend. james taylor's "carolina in my mind" always makes me think of you and smile. thank you, to the moon and back. thank you.
