As I sat with my eyes closed, I began to think of all the qualities I experienced from some of these ladies and here is what I came up with ~
spirit lifting
joy giving
gift giving
love sending
heart mending
problem solving
laughter sharing
soul searching
story telling
fun seeking
I look at the above list and remember a quote I once saw. . .
"Friends are like the bacon bits in the salad bowel of life"
Life could be pretty bland without our friendships, so I salute all girlfriends out there who are making someone's life a little bit more zesty! And for my friends, I thank you for your warmth, compassion, love for the Lord, and just maybe a love for me :) You have strengthened me with your prayers, blessed me with your love and encouraged me with hope. I love you all!
So my blessing list today may not be too exciting for the readers, I'm sorry for that, but maybe it will make you smile as you think of the ones who have held your hand and heart. . .

what a beautiful list of thanks. I'm sure those friends are a deep part of your life. So glad I stopped by!
Thanks for stopping by. I am very fortunate to have so many things to be thankful in my life for. Love your list of blessings (friends). Thanks for sharing and giving me a reminder that friends are among the truest blessings.
God has also blessed me with a "garden" of friends! My friends are one of my greatest treasures! I thank God daily for them. And I am so grateful to be counted among your friends....you, my sweet friend, are a gift to me!!
Love and miss you!
This is a beautiful list indeed, and you have a beautiful blog. Thanks for stopping by my place. Based upon the comment you left, I'm thinking you must like Sonic too. :)
Kristin, I will also confess that my page for this week was blank. And it should not have been, because all these friends right here have been "gift givers" to me, also. You have been such an encourager, spirit-lifter, mentor, and thought provoker. How could I NOT be thankful????? So out comes the notebook once again!
Kristin, thank you. Somehow through this blogging world I have become blessed to find a friend in you! My heart has been truly touched by your friendship!
Love you...Chelle
I hope #731 is me...:) I am very thankful for Ann and her connecting so many wonderful followers of Christ! Much love, sister!
724. Love that I am included in your list of your friend blessing list...but I know that we are not only friends but sisters forever in Christ...now that's a BLESSING! Love you!
You had me at "hello"...haha!
You have been a blessing to me since book club! The book title was perfect, "same kind of different as me..."
Hugs sister!
