I am currently sitting at my desk at work and just got scolded by my dear friend, Amber, for not drinking the (unopened) bottle of water that has been sitting on my desk all morning. She said if it wasn’t for her, poor Sam would be *walking* around in my uterus instead of *swimming* around like other babies! So, she stood here and watched until I drank at least half, which I reluctantly did (blech – I really don’t like water).
Amber is always bugging me to drink more water, and she always has, even before I was pregnant with the little one. It is always kind of funny. But it made me think about how lucky I am to have my friends with me every day at work — Amber, Sue, and Nerine are the best! They have been with me through so much and have always been supportive in my seemingly never-ending quest to be a mom. They let me lean on them and cry when I was frustrated at my lack of motherhood, and again let me lean on them some more when I finally got my wish and found out I was having a child, only to be so afraid of anything and everything that could go wrong that I almost couldn’t enjoy it.
My pals have always been able to make me laugh when I want to cry, and to talk me down off the proverbial ledge when I feel like I am losing my mind. It’s been an amazing 6 years with you guys, and I truly appreciate how amazing each of you are.
And I can’t forget my other friends who are not with me all day at work anymore, but are still the most supportive and wonderful bunch that I could ask for — Debbi, Theresa, Dara, and Karen. Thanks to everyone for being so wonderful : ) I couldn’t do it without you.
