I have had the privilege of belonging to a group of women from the time my daughter was 6 months old. We formed a playgroup. The story of how I got invited into this group is nothing but God's work. We have been able to keep our friendships strong and have been witness to so many major events in each others lives. In has truly been a blessing to call these women my friends. So leaving Richmond VA to move to TN was hard for a variety of reasons. Leaving family, and friends was very overwhelming. A couple of nights before we left town we all got together for a dinner and they surprised me with this beautiful platter.
It was created by one of my dear friends and executed by each member. I have it proudly displayed in my kitchen. It reminds me constantly of our friendship and that God is good. A reminder that I absolutely need each and every day.
What a beautiful way to remember your friends! Friends like that are a true blessing. Hopefully you are all be able to keep in touch through email and your blog.
