Hard to Say Goodbye

I realize I am quite fortunate in that I have never had a really good friend move away. 

But today, a really, really good friend is moving away . . . 

with her husband and two red-headed boys, back to her home country - THE SOUTH (Louisiana to be specific)! 

And while I am so excited for what God has in store for them, man, it is hard to see her go. 

Mandy, I have loved living these last ten years with you in my life as a close friend.

God has blessed my life through you and your friendship in more ways than I will ever know. 

I love you so much!

{Now, if I can just stop crying!}
