but this is definitely my favorite one:
My friend Erin, knowing that I have had a truly challenging year, made it a point to get Theo and I out to her house for some much-needed relaxation. I didn't have to do a thing but enjoy my time there. She took care of everything. I am so truly grateful for friendship. This year my friends have babysat my son when I needed to run to the hospital for my mother; cooked a meal or two and brought it to me when they knew I was running on empty; helped me move to a new apartment; listened to me cry, rant and vent a lot; and above all else, have reminded me that I am a phenomenal mom and woman, even when I can't see that at that particular moment.
Thank goodness for friends.

Your post made me cry. I feel so lucky to have you as a friend Issa--and greatly enjoyed your company. We miss you and Theo already!
Men and come and go, and not all family are friends, but true friends, just can't be beat! I always say my friends are the sisters I didn't get by nature! Glad you and Theo had a good time, long overdue and much deserved!
I love your friend Erin for giving you this! A place to play, to cry, to relax, to feel...That's awesome.
Hi I'm a new blog follower! Looks like you had an amazing time! And you're right, friends are so important especially when you don't have that support from a significant other. They're what helps keep you going! Since I don't know you personally I can only comment from what I see but you appear to be a PHENOMENAL mom so keep reminding yourself of that!
