Some Great Friends!!

So I am just staring this blog and i'm sure I will get better at it but here it goes... So this is going to be about a few of my friends of whom I admire so much!!

Kim, she is one of the best girls that I know, I wouldn't be where I am right now without her. I wouldn't have the friends I have, the ward i'm in, or the life I have... honestly I love her so much. She is one of the only people that has figured me out, she knows me inside and out. Very understanding and non judgemental. My strong friend that I can always turn to... I know she has a strong testimony and I look up to her so much! I have a testimony as well, but I know it can get stronger... She keeps me strong and is always there for me whenever I need a shoulder to cry on.

Sterling, she showed me the blessings of adoption and helped me during my decision process and even still today. Her spirit just glows!! I see how amazing her story is and every other girl that I know that has placed their child. They know what they know is best for their baby. Her strength gives me hope! I think one of my most favorite memories of her is when we went to the Birthmothers Day the day before Mothers day... When she sang the song "From God's arms, to my arms, to yours"... That is the most amazing song I know! I quoted it to my little boy's adoptive parents when I told them that I had chosen them to be my son's parents. Such an amazing song that explains so much!  

Jamie and Shaun, Carson Ryder's wonderful mom and dad who are the best parents in this world! She is so cute with him! Jamie has such a sweet spirit and I can see that she loves her husband and son so much! I had only talked to her for a few days and had already fallin in love with her. What she told me about her husband. I picked them for my son's parents only a few days after talking to her! She feels like the sister I never knew, till now. She only knew she was going to be a mommy only a week and a half before Carson Ryder was even born. I was so nervous that they would say no... I knew they were meant to be his parents in my heart... That peaceful spirit was what confermed it for me but I could never get that thought out of the back of my head about "what if it's too soon?" "what if it's too fast? will they say no?..." They were so excited but it was such a roller coaster ride... I'm so blessed that Shaun and Jamie chose to parent my beautiful son. I'm so happy I found her and her husband. Carson's turning into a mama's boy, so my mom says, she went to visit them a couple weeks ago and when she was holding him he kept looking over to Jamie and wanted his mommy. So cute! I'm so happy he's happy and so loved!
