You've Got A Friend

This is a tribute to all my friends out there! I tried to get the one sung by James Taylor, but they didn't have it. Carol King sings it just as good though! I just want you all to know how your friendship has meant to me. From my friend whom I met in Kentucky you became my family! It was so nice to be able to have friends whose husbands were in the same field and who understood what you were going through. You all were there to talk to and was always reminded that I was not alone. It was soooo hard to leave you all, but lucky for us we have the blogging world! Then there are those who I met in Denver, CO you helped me get through some of the toughest times of being a new mom and new resident in the State. There were so many changes going on in my life that it all become so overwhelming! You know who you are! I treasure your friendship dearly. I wish that we had more time to spend doing things together, but alas my time in Denver was short and I miss you more than you could know! You all were such good mothers and taught me how to be a better one! Now here I am in Farmington, NM and I am still new. Making so many friends in the past 6 years and moving on so quickly has been tremendously hard for me. I have met some great people here and want to be better friends with them, but have not done all I should to throw myself out there. With the stress of a new house I have lost focus on everything else. I am hoping that this summer will be one of get-togethers and a time to blossom our friendships. It has been so nice to have such a strong LDS church membership here to make making friends a little easier, but I have also met some great people who are not members of the LDS church and love them dearly, they are good people and am truly blessed to have them in my life! There are those whom I have met throughout my life that live in all parts of the country(you know who you are!) I love you so much! My sisters and Sisters-in-law, I am so lucky to have such wonderful women in my family, how did that happen?! And a special tribute to my childhood best friend, Rose. We have been friends since we were 10/11 years old. We have been through so much together! Have had plenty of fights which were always reconciled and were always there with good advice and a shoulder to cry on! You are one of the few people who probably knows me better than I know myself! No matter what I did or what I said you stood by me! I love you so much!! I wish we were closer, but phones and computers (and maybe the occasional trip to UT-if the timing is right) will have to do. So all of you near or far have made a great impact on my life and have helped mold me into what I am today, whether you believe it or not, this song is for you! Remember I will always be there for you as you have been for me!
