So, my first official post.
Im writing this after i have cooked dinner, bathed Myles, put him to bed, studied for an hour and now typing whilst watching Greys Anatomy.
Before all of these fun shenanigans i caught up with a friend this afternoon. This friendship began in highschool, we have been through so much together. So much fun. Formals, fights, parties, boys. She has always been that one friend that has always been there. I watched as we grew into adults, seeing her have her first baby, then the second, being there when she had her low moments and helping celebrate the good times. After many years our friendship took a downward spiral into nothingness. A black hole. While i was planning my wedding things went pear shaped and to cut along story short our friendship ended. She never ended up attending my wedding. This hurt me deeply, and i never thought we could regain what we had lost. With the birth of my son brought a breath of fresh air. She visited me in hospital, and as shocked as i was to see her i was also relieved to know she still cared. It had still been many months before i made the first steps to contact her and after many butterflies and if and buts i finally asked her to meet me for coffee.
So, that was today and can i say how happy i am we got back in touch. After years of not speaking i thought there would be some awkwardness, some tension, but no! It was if nothing had happened. We talked liked we always had, laughed like we used to and enjoyed each others company. She played with Myles and made me realise what a great friend she actually was and how much i missed her friendship. Now she is getting married in 5 weeks and i only found this out today. This makes me so excited for her, but sad at the same time. That we will have both missed out on each others weddings. One day that is so important and something you will only do once, (we hope lol).
But i am not going to dwell on that one small fact, we may have missed out on the last couple of years but we have so many more to look forward to. It makes me understand why people say not to sweat the little things in life, because yes they are only little but one day you will realise that they add up to big things that matter.
I hope you have enjoyed my first blog and i hope to post something interesting every couple of days. Feel free to leave comments, feedback and tell me stories about your life, if you have had similar experiences and what you have gained from them.
Peace.
