My People....

OK so I've been on this 'Greys Anatomy' kick.  I discovered the show a bit ago and found the past seasons on Netflix.  It's totally driving my husband bananas as there are 9 season's to get through!!  LOL  Anyway in the show you get to love the characters and the relationships they have with each other.  They call each other 'their people'.  If something happens to one of them they all come running and I tear up EVERY time.  I've never been one for a crowd of people....I like to people watch but I'm certainly not the center of attention kinda gal.  I have a core group of friends that I consider 'MY PEOPLE'.  This lady (Elizabeth Anderson....whom I call Bert) is one of my people.  We met in a  MOPS group and kinda stuck.  She has inspired me in SO many ways, I'm not even sure I've told her all of them.  She is as genuine as they come and as loving and selfless as they come.  She has a clear head and knows her own strengths and weaknesses.  She sees the good in everyone and can give sound advice!  We both had our 2nd child around the same time and went through the process together. To our surprise Bert and her husband decided to go for #3!  I'm so glad she did because I've seen even yet another amazing side to this women!  One of patients, determination, perseverance, and strength!  She always has been these things in my eyes but I've seen them even more in the last few months from her.  Bert's labor story is a long one so I wont go into detail but I will say that she had an overnight stay in the hospital where we thought baby might make an appearance.  No such entry happened but I was able to swing by and capture a few images for her to remember the experience with!  Hope you enjoy them Bert and know that I love you and I'm grateful to have you as a friend!
