Recently I’ve experienced some disappointment from people that I have been friends with for many years. Essentially we grew up together. We’ve laughed, we’ve cried, we’ve celebrated sweet sixteens, and graduations, career milestones and many birthdays through the years. Some of us have gotten married and had kids while some have experienced a different path of dating and travel all the while taking time to link up and catch up with the nuances of our journeys. I’ve always been the person that would say friendship doesn’t mean talking everyday or seeing each other frequently. I have always defined friendship as showing up for each other during the big moments. Big moments aren’t always happy or celebratory; some of them are quite sad and come with tears and sitting in silence and just being there for one another.
Once I became a mom my views have shifted because of what I've experienced and I know many other mamas out there that have similar stories.
