Friends

So I have been thinking about this topic this week. You see I have some people that think I am not a very good friend and that bums me out. I really try to stick up for people when others are annoyed and help them see the other persons side. But this little bump in the road lead me down an interesting train of thought. So thanks lady that thinks I am dumb for helping me learn something new. I was thinking about how who I decide to be friends with directly impacts my kids. These are the people that they think are cool and think are their friends too. When I invite someone to share this life's journey with me I am also inviting them into my kids life. I don't know about the rest of you but I am way more protective of my kiddos than I am myself. So this really made me think about those people that love me and let me into their hearts and homes. This means that they trust and love me enough to share their kids with me. They know that I would love and support and aid their children in this life of bumps and scraps. So to all those people that I love and that love me back and let me hitch a ride, thanks! I will remember this little bit of knowledge I gained and hopefully be a better steward of the opportunity you have given me.
