IS IT TRUE!!??!!

I actually got to go out and have a mommy date the other night.

I met up with my precious friend Mollie the other night at Starbucks for some much needed GIRL TIME!

Now, I have NEVER been a fan of Starbucks as most all of my friends can tell you. When we would get together they'd always have this idea to go to Starbucks. I, however, DETEST coffee so it was never my favorite.

And YES I know they have other stuff there but you don't go to a flower shop to buy beef! Okay, MEANING their specialty is COFFEE... so everything else there is...um... NOT.

That is until this love affair! No, not the artist who now know's how to "spell" my name... but the hot liquid this cup contains!
CARMEL APPLE SPICE!!! (No cream... thanks)

Can I say divinity has stepped all over my face with a splash of spiced goodness! Yeah, It's that good!

Of course I totally enjoyed my wonderful girl time even more.

We talked about transitioning babies into toddlerhood and trying to make "me time" work ANYTIME of the day so that we actually GET some me time during the day. We talked about how this "date" we only yawned twice as opposed to the "every other sentence" when we met up last, as all our boys were still wee babes.

We laughed and spoke of dreams and our hearts. We discussed our marriages and how we have grown so much being married AND now mothers. We just talked! We laughed... I EVEN cried... I am getting SOOO sentimental in my old(er) age! I have found that fostering has sensitised my heart so much. I just talk about these babes and I shed a tear! Tell me MY heart's not in it :).

It saddens me that life overtakes the pure and simple joys of friendships most days but I am so thankful with one phone call and a diligent plan to hang out and catch up we can reconnect with one another. Even if we have to drag ourselves out in the freezing cold! Oh, yes, we will get together!

I love my Mols!
