Rain!

So, there were no games today. At first the league was going to move them to another field and hope to get in at least one game. There was no such luck though. The storms moved in and the games were out. So now we are going to be making them up during the week. I am happy that they didn't play two games today. I was very unsure how my 6 year old was going to handle that....as long as we are at one game a day, he's good. So is Momma. I know the time is coming for those doubleheaders, but he is still my baby! I want to keep him young! :)

I just got off the phone awhile ago with my oldest and dearest friend. Regina has been a huge part of my life since 10th grade. That's a long time, so don't even ask the years! Let's just say we dressed really funny then and had big hair! Words can not begin to describe what she means to me. In fact, there are no words to describe our friendship or her. God has blessed me with her. When I called her crying because my Mom had just told me that her and Dad were getting divorced, she was there. I spent the night with her and Danielle and they barked like dogs to make me laugh.

A little background on us. Her and I met through a mutual friend. The three of us did everything together it seemed. Of course in the beginning there was a bit of jealousy between us. I didn't care a whole lot for her and vice versa. The mutual friend was the glue that held us together. Her and I got over that. So much so that over the next two years in high school our friendship grew. We were roommates in college...and the friendship has deepened to this day. We have so many memories that no size book could hold them in.

We don't get to see each other very often and that is putting it lightly. In fact it's been a year since I've seen her. (It doesn't help that she lives in Hawaii right now!!) She is coming back to our hometown in September and I am counting the days. I miss her so much. Tonight I was talking on the phone with her. She is having a rough time and I so wanted to be there and just hug her. Tell her it's going to be okay. Tell her that I love her and will be there for her. I wanted to be that barking dog for her tonight. For now, though, words alone are going to have to do it.

G, I love you. You are my best friend and I miss you like crazy! It will be okay and I'm here for you, even with our crazy time distance. You are a strong amazing woman and an awesome Mother. That someone doesn't appreciate all that you do and it's wrong. I'm praying for you girl!!
