I belong to a very special club that started in full force last winter. Its called Girls Club (original I know). It started after my great friend K had surgery last February. What started as two friends just hanging out one keeping the other company while she recuperated has become one of my favorite clubs. You see, K and I always find a way to incorporate good food in our hang out sessions. We laugh because while our husbands are at work making money we are out eating and sometimes even known to shop as well (hee hee). When P would go to work he wouldn't ask K if I was coming over he would ask where we were eating...LOL. Dave has joined us once or twice since he works closer to us. Occasionally we let him in but then its no longer Girls Club for the time he's around.
Anyway K & P got her referral a while ago and we were beyond thrilled for them. No one deserved to be parents more than K and P in my opinion! We celebrated on and on until they left for China. I was honored to be the chauffeur on the ride back from the airport. Seeing H for the first time with K & P brought happy tears to my face. K was finally a mommy! K & P muddled through their first week home and I see more and more ease in my friend's attitude as she gets the hang of this parenting thing.
Yesterday was a very special moment in Girls Club history. We inducted a new member into our little group. Our twosome has turned to a threesome! H has joined the ranks! K was so sweet when we were out to lunch yesterday. She told H she was now an official member of a very special club. It took all I had to fight back the tears as she told this to H. She then put me almost over the edge when she told H that there would be four of us once Diana joins us. I then told H she will have to teach Diana all about the fun times that are had in Girls Club.
K-I know you don't do mushy well but you really proved to me (yet again) how wonderful of a friend you are yesterday. Thank you for being one of my closest friends and being co-founder of our very special club!

Sounds like a fun club! Glad you have such great friends. ('Cause YOU'RE a great friend.....)
I'm finally getting the hang of this "mama" thing? Really?! Well...I must be getting good at faking it...
:)
Where do you want to go eat tomorrow? I hope you are up for shopping...baby needs some new shoes! (No member of girls club that respects herself can live with one pair of shoes!)
Lisa,
that almost made me cry :) Friends are the best. I am so glad that you have such a special bond with your friend and that one day soon, you'll add another member to your club.
