Oh this post is so lovely and hits so close to home. Moving so frequently, strong friendships are a must when I am traveling. I have a few strong relationships like this around the country, and I am eternally grateful for those. I know it can make visiting each other that much more fun though as well! Shell and I need to visit, why not in Nashville or in Kentucky? Thanks for sharing!

Love this post! I had a close-by mudpuddle friend when my kids were younger, but have moved away from her. She and I shared so much. We had got married and had our babies around the same time. We talked daily about what our kids were doing. We, too, found that John Rosemond changed our perspective about parenting. She brought me diapers when we couldn’t afford them. She listened and cried with me through the dissolving of my marriage. She helped me pack when the moving truck was coming the next day and I wasn’t ready. I, too, miss those times but treasure her friendship, though we don’t see each other much. Mudpuddle friends are the best. Blessed and happy for you two. Thank you for sharing.

I have TWO!
Brianna and Jamie (above).
Brie and I have been friends since we were 16. We have never lived in the same state and only see each other once a year (at most). We have been through a lot together and I am blessed to have her in my life.
Jamie and I have been friends for 6 or 7 years now. We used to work together so we saw each other more often, now we rarely see each other but we talk on the phone all the time. I think we actually go through a withdraw when we go more than a few days without speaking.

Both of these ladies are important to me and I can’t imagine getting through life without them!

My friend Lindsi is the first person that came to mind when I read this post. We’ve been through so much together and continue through some of those things together. We talk on a daily (or more) basis. We only live 40 minutes from each other but rarely get together (don’t know why). Just being on the other end of the phone is sometimes good enough!

I read this out loud to my daughter last night and she started to cry. Friendships are important to us girls no matter what stage of life we are in.

I love this post. So beautiful. Two mud puddle friends kept coming to mind as I was reading, and we now live hours and states apart…I’m so missing them right now. This was a great reminder to get in touch with them again.
