With them

Except for grandparents, it is quite unusual to have people in your life that love your children in that very special way. We are lucky to have friends who have taken a very unique place in our girls' lives and hearts and it is a real joy to see their relationship blossom through the years.

Wherever we are, they come and visit us and take real pleasure in spending time with our girls. I will always remember when we asked them to be our girls' godparents while we were camping in Alaska when the girls were still babies...


Over the years, I have asked them for their opinion in many instances and have appreciated their outlook on things. Their tangible love for our girls fills me with so much gratitude. We are all so blessed to have them in our life.

Having precious friends like that for your girls is a gift...I am so happy you have that is your life...having special needs boys it is a gift I would cherish...will try to comment more often :)
