The best friend ever

I LOVE my friend Heather! For some reason we never got close until recently and I am so grateful that God put her in my life. Especially now.  I couldn't ask for a more caring and considerate friend. 

I am going to share our texts from last night. 
(If I knew how to take a screen shot I would do that... but I don't)

Heather:      You feel any better
Me:             I still feel deflated.  I just want my baby boy
Heather:      You will get that boy, even if we have to raise a ton of money and get you to Africa, it will happen.
Me:             :)  I love you
Heather:     It's true. Doors keep closing because you are on a set path leading you straight to him. Going through the wrong door would take you the wrong way.
Me:            You are right. But I feel like I keep going through the wrong doors over and over again.
Heather:     I think it's because you want it so badly.  You are desperately searching for him and it inspires me.

(That last line killed me.  I am. She knew exactly what I was feeling.  I am trying to find my lost son. I am doing everything I can to bring him home to me.)

Me:           Aww. Now I'm crying
Heather:   That's the love of a mother.  Don't cry
Me:           I mean. Like crying crying. Heather, you have no idea how much you mean to me.  That may be the most amazing thing anyone has ever said to me.
Heather:   It's the truth.  All I know is that you usually have to get A LOT of no's before you get your yes.  But the only way to get your yes is to ignore the no's.  This is how I got Pete to propose. haha
(hahahah true.  They dated for a very long time before he proposed.)



It was wonderful to hear my feelings validated.  It makes me feel like less of a nut job.  I love you Heather. Thank you, sincerely, for being such an amazing friend.
