Friends

This one sort of connects with my first thankful blog. I am thankful for surprise phone calls from friends. I received one yesterday from one of my girlfriends (we've been friends since elementary school and we lived together before I moved in with Ricky). She had a baby boy yesterday (he was a little early)! It was totally out of the blue, I had to run for the phone through an obstacle course (we were painting Alyssa's bedroom yesterday, so her stuff was all over the house), search down the cordless phone, so I was out of breath and a little peeved because I couldn't find the phone and then it was my girlfriend with happy news! Today I received another phone call at work from a man I used to work with at my old job. He was just letting me know he hadn't forgotten about me and that he'll be busy for the next few weeks but that he wants to go out for lunch to catch up. We only talked for a couple of minutes but he always brings a smile to my face and makes me feel good just by being himself. So I guess I'm just thankful for all my friends and knowing that they're always there for me and thinking about me even though we don't talk everyday or even every week, month.
