PARTY!!!TONIGHT AT MY HOUSE!!!
So today it has officially hit me. I'm going to be losing one of my best friends for 6 months. Christi is leaving TOMORROW!!! She's moving out of this town, off of her street, and out of my life unofficially for 6 long, dreadful months. This can't be true especially when the best parts of summer are right around the corner. Moments that I will pray for her return are coming shortly. Whitney and I are having a going-away party for her tonight at my house so please, all come. As I was looking at the list of people that I have to remember to call, the names became blurry and I realized I was starting to cry. This, I have never done. I've always been the person who could never understand how other people would cry when their friends left, it never used to be a big deal. Now it is, and I realized it's because my heart has taken these people, that I surround myself with, and made them apart of it. So I wonder how I will do tonight and tomorrow.
Last night was sincerely awesome. I couldn't go to the show because I had to work, but there will be plenty more, but after I went to Pastor's. I've been praying that Justin would be there one of these times and just stay and hang around us more and more. Last night he surely was there and I was so happy. I hope he continues to come around with Ryan and I can't help but think of the ways that Jesus is working in his life. But I also thank God for the awesome convo that Mark and I had. I've never talked with him on that level before and it was so amazing to finally have the opportunity to learn more about him and what's in his heart.
THANK YOU LORD FOR EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE!!!
