Guess who is "OLD"?

Who needs an excuse to get together with a group of girls? We don't really....but when we do, it's even more fun! Thank you for having a birthday Traci so we could celebrate. The weather couldn't have been more fun...it was so warm that it felt as though we could have been sitting outside in Mexico (that may be a stretch since we were looking at cars in the parking lot, however if you look at the sky above us, you can imagine the waters crashing along the sandy beaches couldn't you?)A tribute to my dearest friend....
Traci is one of the most loyal people I know.
She stands up for what is right.
She demonstrates Christs' love in all that she does.
She is a wonderful mother, very patient, loving, kind, encouraging.
She talks to her children about Jesus and the importance of having a personal relationship with him.
She is a loving wife.
She puts others before herself.
She is a loving daughter and sister to her family.
She is the one person who always has my back.
She loves my children almost as much as I do...and is like their second mom.
She listens without judgement, but will give you her honest opinion if needed.
She is fun and funny!!
She knows how to make people laugh, and comforts them when they cry.
She is one of those people that will go out of their way to help others.
She is strong in her convictions and sensitive with her emotions.
Traci....there are so many qualities about you that I could mention...and it's for these reasons that you are my best friend. Thank you for always being there and for being that friend to me that everyone could only wish they had! Love you dear friend and Happy 40th Birthday!!
