Today Iris picked friends for the Thankful Thursday theme. Join us in being thankful today!
Friends are special people. We have different kinds of friends who go with us through different stages in life. I have my friends from my school days as well as college. Some I keep in better contact with than others. Some I know I could count on if I needed something; I know which ones would be there for me. Facebook has been a fun way to find old friends and make some new ones as well. I find it interesting to see which of my friends are friends with each other. Previously I made some good friends through a message board and those ladies are still special to me. Before that I never had "met" any friends online but it showed me how friendships can be formed online and you can feel a closeness with them. Now I've found some wonderful friendships through blogging, which has been a blessing to me.
Today I'm thankful for....
~ my husband. We were friends first before we started dating and I'm thankful he is my best friend.
~ my sweet boy who is a friendly little guy. I like to see him in different settings with different aged children and how he tries to relate to them....talking big to older kids and being helpful to younger children. I pray he makes many good friends as he begins school and he is a friend to others.-
~ my Mom is a dear friend to me and I'm thankful for our relationship.
~ life friends. I have a special friend I've known since elementary, probably 3rd grade. It is a blessing now that she lives close enough that we can go eat together often like we did when we were in college.
~ college friends. College was a special time in my life and I'm thankful to still keep in touch with my friends, for their prayers and encouragement, even though we are separated by miles.
Have a wonderful day! Be happy!

What a wonderful list. Friends are truly a blessing in our lives. We were similar to you an your husband, my husband and I were best friends before we started dating. That friendship as truly helped us build a successful marriage.

And sweet Bethany, I am thankful FOR YOU!! You have been such a gift of friendship to me and my family. Thank you so much!
You are loved.
The internet has really made the world a smaller and easier place to keep in touch. Being on Facebook, I too have reconnected with many friends from high school and that was a long time ago. I'm thankful for you too Bethany.
Thank you for visiting my blog. I had no clue about the friendship theme. This was my first post. I love all of my friends and those new ones I am making through blogging!
You are a precious friend, love you.
What a wonderful reminder... I have to stop and be thankful for the friends I have... and the new ones who have brought such joy into my life!
Blessings dear girl!
