I cannot deny there is this great big Creator of all things who loves me dearly.
Why?
First, my sweet, sweet friend, Summer, made ME brownies. You heard me right. The woman with the three kids (one being only 11 days old!!), made. me. brownies. AND I got to hold said baby while picking up the brownies tonight. Heaven, I tell you. Newborn grunts and gurgles and poops. Nummy. Summer, I know neither of us are very good at the whole girlfriend, girly thing. All I do know is that you "get" me ... and you let me hold your kid ... and you made me something chocolately. Screw shopping trips and pedicures. I like how we do it!!
Then, there is my wonderful gal pal, Leslie. Most of you know her. I "met" her a couple of years ago when I started reading her blog. Come to find out, her sister-in-law and I were suite-mates in college. We finally met in real life. We fell in love (not in the lesbian kinda' way, but in the mommy blogger kinda' way). As much as I adore her, and want to put her in my pocket and carry her around all the time, I never would have wished for her to join the RAD-a-lad-a-ding-dong Club. Yet, there ya' go. They still have some diagnosing and therapist searching to do, but the signs are there and the acting out is ...
... well, for those of you who know, get your butt over there and love on her. She is super amazing and does whatever it takes for her kids. She's already ROCKING it. Still, she needs us.
GO!

Sounds to me like you are reaping the love you sow--good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over! Praise the Lord!
Awww, you're so awesome. I would cry right now except that I'm too tired. Actually, I have yet to cry. Maybe I've become too strong? I feel like Cameron Diaz in that movie "The Holiday" where she can't cry - no matter what. I even begged Sim to smack me.. but, oddly enough, he refused.
Hey, I returned your hilarious text with a phone call that got cut-off because I rambled for too long. Don't know if it went through or not.
And, of course, THANK YOU!!
Leslie :-)
Someone thinks your awesome enough to make brownies for and you are helping out Leslie (who rates in my top Coolest People Ever). Hmmmmm...I think that earns a super gold star. You get 20 minutes to yourself to swear and eat chocolate.
if i were able - i would deliver TWO pans of brownies ... the kind we make down here are like crack - you cannot keep from eating them in one sitting.
Love you, too. Even if I can't deliver brownies. :) Thanks for your friendship.
Blessings!

:D Yay!! Summer rocks socks, and so do you. So..perfect.
You know me...gotta know who the suite-mate is... :)
I love your phrasing so much. "Nummy" and the image of you putting Leslie in your pocket... HA! You're both fabulous.
