Tacky Costumes, Chocolate Poptarts & Friends

There is something to be said about TRUE FRIENDS!  

You know the ones who:

- know you more than you know yourself sometimes
- love you more than you understand you deserve
- teach you new things even when they don't know they are
- tease you in a way that says "get it together" because they know if they just say it out right you are too soft hearted to understand
- their kids are more like nieces and nephews because you have watched them grow up
- have light in their eyes when they see your dreams have finally came true
- pray for you sometimes more than you pray for yourself
- when they hug you at the exact time you need it you don't want to let go
- stood by your side at your sons funeral and watched your mutual friends hand you a single rose one at a time because she passed them out for them to give so you would feel their love and support even when they didn't understand how to express it
- when everyone else was exiting your sons funeral after expressing their condolences stood there refusing to move, and not for her own heartache but because she was scared to leave you in the time she knew you needed her most
- actually hurt when you hurt
- true heartedly feel your joy with no jealousy
- leave a mark on your life even when time passes by
- express how your angel baby changed their way of life and their kids acceptance of Heaven
- you know for a fact God placed in your life for more than just a season but for a lifetime
- you could never in this lifetime repay for what they have carried you through
- you can remember praying God to send you because all you ever wanted was real friends 
- dress your kids in sparkly/tacky costumes, give them chocolate poptarts at 9:30 PM because these are the moments she has waited for just as much as you.... BECAUSE WHEN YOU SMILE SHE SMILES!
Because that is what True Friends do!
