Smiles through my awe...

You know, I really had a great time... all my life.

I have had some great peeps to share adventures with. A group of 3 girls made up my society. A great group of women now days, great kids back then. Playing in a tree house, pretending to be He-Man and She-ra. They were the best brother and sister team around those days. He-man, my first hero that I can remember. Great guy. Lol. My husband reminds me of him, maybe that's what keeps us together.
Next phase in my life were 4 extremely different types of people. Between the age of 10-13, these 4 girls impacted my life with a whole new set of rules. We had the talks, we had fights, we had popcorn machines blowing up in my bedroom, and swimming all day in the pool, and great games of ball.
There were 10-12 people that impacted my world so much, I never wanted to let them go. As the faces come to my mind, I list no one in ranking #1, #2... Each one that I have not mentioned, know that I appreciate the impact you had on me too, i just wish i could type forever, but your Mark is there.

Great times, Bad times, Worse times... I loved every minute of it. A lot of miles we rode together. A lot of fish we have caught. Sometimes, I so wish we could share another day in a blue car, heading to the river. I think you are a magnificent woman that has the ability to do anything. Your skills with managing are supernatural. Don't forget that you are SPECIAL, WONDERFULLY MADE, and YOU ARE A GENIUS.

My secretive friend who loves a mystery. A knight in shining armor awaits you. He may not be quite what you expect, but he is there. Loved the concoctions that we made on an old stump, and the bike rides with our bmx's. basketball games on Sat. Morning. Wow, I still remember the smells from the gym.
Super fun... Loved it all.

You were always so spunky yet beautiful. Full of Ga spice and Southern tea. Always tough as a nail... Loved that about you. I am so proud of you. You have accomplished so much and have such great tastes. GOOD LUCK, may all your dreams come true.

Each one of us has a pretty decent life today. Although, I am not as close to them as we have grow up and went our separate ways.

All these memories came back to me as I watched my little girl sleep tonight. The peaceful rest, She is awesome, I love her with everything I am... I want the best for that beautiful face on my couch, breathing loudly. I hope I can give my daughter a little bit of each of the people that have made their mark on me. I Love you baby girl. Thanks for the "remember when moment"
