Celebrating Kari

Kari had her birthday almost a month ago and we finally got together today to celebrate it.  Kari decided to go to GriDeli's .  I got ready and headed there.  I should have got there right on time but for some reason I drove right past it.  As I was driving I kept thinking "this is further than I thought".  When I could almost see Smith and Edwards I realized GriDeli's wasn't further than I thought but I was!  Holy Moly!  I ended up getting there last and about 10 minutes late.  I'm not sure how I missed it.  It's a busy place!

We had a really nice visit today.  I like it when we share the real things in our life.  We all have stuff but I think there are so many times that we keep the things that make us grow bottled up.  For some reason we don't feel like it's right to share with others. I think sharing is good because it let's you know you are not alone.  Everyone has stuff!  We visited for hours before Kellie had to leave and then we visited for another hour.  Also, I think when you really share your feelings with your friends it strengthens the friendships.  I have a deeper love for the friends that share things and I suppose that is because I know them better. I adore these friends and I am glad that we were finally able to celebrate beautiful Kari!
