Insight and decision

So Friday night 3 of my girlfriends and I went out for a 30th birthday celebration...no kids, but the 2 of us that are turning 30 are both pregnant, so no wild night in store. However, the other 2 turn 30 in Aug/Sept, which just happens to be our 30 1/2 bdays. And the decision was made we are really going to celebrate with a girls' night of spa, hotel, dinner and lots of wine. Hopefully this works out! C seemed a little worried to have the 2 kids alone when the baby is only 3 months old, but he'll be fine! Or there's always my mom who can take one. Anyway, after lots and lots of food and talking and fun, I have had an insight and made a decision. I will no longer stress about friends or friendships. I think they change and go where they want to go. I will no longer worry about why this or why so and so did that or said that. I am going to focus on friendships that are there, friendships that last through many things, and friends that do not picture me as a friend who is only convenient to have at that moment in their life. There are way more important aspects of life, family and friendships. I will cherish what I have, let go of what I don't, and love those that are close. And I just want those 3 beautiful women from Fri to know that I appreciate them and who they have grown into...we're way different than when we were 16, but also so much the same...remember I don't think any of you are old! Especially not 30! :) I can't wait for the next 20 years and many more memories to come.
