19 years!

Meet Angie, one of my dearest friends in the entire world.  We have known each other for 19 years! I just called her for her birthday and we talked for over an hour about life and our kids and funny/hard things about being a mother.  Angie is a total rockstar mom.  She seriously is.  I don't know ANYone like her.  She has 5 kids ages 6 and under and is totally sane and patient.  She's one of those people that was made to be a mom.  She stays at home and is a full-time Mother of 5.  She's a couple years younger than me but we've always remained close.

Angie and I have a special bond and I don't know how or when it happened but we do.  She's one of those people who I feel a strong connection with and I know we'll be friends forever.  Our lives are so different now that we're all grown up with families, husbands, school, work and callings but we will always stay close.  I haven't talked to her for months and months but I just called her up and we picked up immediately where we left off.  It's like we talk every day but we totally don't.  I just love her to pieces and I'm so glad to have her in my life.  This picture was taken almost 10 years ago and I don't have a recent one that I can find, but we both look pretty cute in this one, so this is how I'd like her to remember me :)

Love you Ang.  Happy Birthday! "Purple Light".
