The Best Kind of Friend

I've been having really lazy days lately. I talk to my sister to see how the Braelyn is doing, pick up the house, and play with Alekisio until he wears me out. Other than that I don't feel like leaving the house. I didn't even get out of my house until tonight to check the mail, and the mailboxes are right outside of our apartment. When I did check it I was reminded that some friends will always be there. Even after alot of years apart with only a little actual communication. I went to the mailbox and when I opened it I saw Missy's handwriting and smiled. She made the cutest blanket for Isabelle. Alekisio said, "Oooh the blanket's so cute!" He even took a picture with it when I was taking this one.

Not to get depressing but when you live on a little island hours on an airplane away from family and friends that really know you it's gets hard. There are some times when I really have a longing to be around friends that have known me through most of my life. There are only a few people from when I was a teen who I can call right now, or see when I'm home and it feels like it hasn't been that long. I keep trying to talk Aisea into moving out west, I'm trying really really hard! I know he likes it because he used to talk about moving to Idaho Falls (where he served his mission), or Utah, because he knows the areas and has friends there. Anyway I just keep rambling, but I was so excited to get the blanket in the mail I had to share it with everyone. Handmade gifts are the most cherished! When I go to the mailbox and there's a card from Missy or Aunt Connie it always makes my day, (they make really cute cards), and this blanket came at the perfect time. I'm hoping Isabelle is so excited to see it she'll come out very soon! Thanks Missy!
