Friends

This weekend was extra special for me. I finally got to meet McKayla, Rebecca's daughter and got to see Keith Ann and her sweet Rebekah. I have truly missed these girls and was sad that the visit was so brief. Rebecca, my roommate for a semester in college and Keith Ann, a suite mate were both invaluable in my walk with Christ. I know that God put these girls in my life to draw me closer to him. What a blessing they were to me then and continue to be now.

When I was having issues with friends in high school who I lost touch with or drifted away from, my mom told me I would find friends, true friends who I could go years without seeing and be able to pick up right where I left off. It was like that this weekend; the friendship and fellowship was like we hadn't missed a beat. I love these girls and their girls.

The only bittersweet part of the weekend, was that I found myself missing Courtney. Courtney was Keith Ann's roommate/my suite mate and later my roommate the next year and a half. Courtney passed away my first semester of law school and not a day goes by that I don't think about and miss her, but being with these girls made me feel closer to her and made me miss her more at the same time.



Rebecca should have worn heels
McKayla isn't so sure about this.
She is so stinking cute
Sweet girls!
Sweet Rebekah taking care of my crooked bebe! Straighten up there Harper Ann.

  3. Say,
    I have to say I'm a little jealous of this mini-phi mu reunion. I miss all of the girls too.

    You are doing a great job with your blog...I'm impressed how good you are at posting. Loved the anniversary and father's day posts. Keep posting pics of those precious kids. Hope we get to see you soon!

    Love you!
