Good Friends

For the last two days I haven't been feeling quite myself and today I was thinking about how great it is to have friends that will drop anything to help you. Yesterday my keys were misplaced inside Target. Not only is this the only set of keys to my car, but it was past James nap time, he was hungry and cranky and I was wearing my favorite black pointy shoes. (Why was I doing errands in 3 inch heels? Well I can't really say, but I never really leave the house and I have to wear my favorite shoes for somehting). Needless to say I was a bit cranky myself. I didn't have my phone and when I called Curtis it went straight to voicemail. So I left Curtis a message about my situation and he called Becky and she was about to put her son in the tub so she dressed him and got on the phone with our neighbor to watch him while she picked us up when my keys were turned in (after an hour of looking for them). What a blessing! I have always had great friends and I don't think I ever really noticed while I had them. Heather was there for me when our crazy roommate went after me with the knife! Where would I be without her?
