Sisterhood Empowerment

Have you ever had one of those girlfriends that you just love to death. I am talking about the kind that drop everything when they hear your bad news. They put aside all of their problems and daily routines and do everything in their power to make your life normal again and give you the shoulder to cry on. The kind of girlfriend that brings over brownies and ice cream. Yeah...that is the kind of girlfriend I have. Except she lives to far away to rush over with brownies or ice cream.....thank goodness because it is diet season in my house right now. So, since she is unable to help me through proximity she did the only other thing she could....sent me a "Sisterhood Empowerment" package. This package came at the best time and it was a multiple part package. The first part was for my sad stage...and full of girly things and tasty treats. The second part was for my mad stage. Two punching bags and a journal to document my anger and later sell it to a record company for lots of money!!! And the third was a sisterhood empowerment package. To remind me that I am better than how I was treated. To remind me that I am worth it. And to remind me that I can do anything. There was also a mix tape (cd) that corresponded to each emotion or part of the package. What a beautiful gift.

Well today I am with that very girlfriend in Delaware having the time of my life. She has two little girls "the chickens" with hair just as read as mine. Neither Em or her husband Matt have red hair, so I am loving that everyone mistakes the girls as belonging to me. So much fun! I love Em and how you can have a friend that you are truly connected to that will drop everything at any second when you call with that need. Check out her blog to see more of what is going on this week. :)
