My Heart Is Full Too.....

It is not everyday that you meet someone who is your friend on Facebook, but I did. I had the pleasure of meeting Carlanda and her husband Lee. They have a close friend who I also met and her name is Jodi. The picture I am displaying was created by Carlanda and she used it on her blog once. She brought some artwork to show me while they were here in Oregon. I had commented on how much I loved this piece and she gave it to me, I was so thrilled. She also gave me an ornament she made that I will treasure always.....Lee and Carlanda are planning on moving here to Oregon and after meeting them in person I am so excited to have them here. We shared many good times while they were here and I look forward to many, many more!!!

My heart is full too, I feel very blessed to have had the chance to meet both of them. My Facebook friends are many, family, close friends, Class Mates and people I worked with. Some of my Facebook friends are closer than others and since meeting Carlanda and Lee, I hope for the day to meet another close friend who I have had many of conversations with and a connection with. I do believe some people come in your life for a reason and I can't help but think that these friends are here for that reason. Yes my heart is full too, all my friends that have touched my life have given me great joy, love, understanding, and happiness and I thank all of you for that from the bottom of my heart!!!!
