Friends???

Yeah, that is friends with three big, fat, question marks. Why? Because when you become a Mom, friends seem to slowly dwindle. The friends you used to take long car rides with and sing at the top of your lungs to your favorite songs with, the friends you got into trouble with, the friends who were your bridesmaids, the friends who swore they would never leave your side......

Doesn't take long for many of them to leave your side, does it? I know it's not like this for everyone. However, for those of us who got married young, had kids in their early twenties or maybe even late teens.....you know what I'm talking about.

I have one friend who I can still call my good friend after all these years. A friend who I can count on to come to my kids birthday parties, a friend I can count on to be there when I need to talk. And no matter how many kids I have screaming in my ear, I'll always be there for her as well.

I can't forget to mention the friends I have made as a result of beng a Mom though. These friends mean the world to me. These are the ladies I talk to every single day. These are the ladies I talk to about everything, the ladies who have laughed with me, cried with me, and have been there for me in so many ways.

While many of us complain that we are losing friends when we have kids, maybe those friends aren't worth it. Actually, they AREN'T worth it. Your family life and new mom friends are your life now. As you change so do your friends. It's a part of life we all need to accept. No matter how much it hurts.
