Friends

Friday I went up to Fort Collins to visit Laura, one of my roommates from college. We were assigned to be roommates in the dorms 13 years ago. I remember being a little put out by the assignment because I was trying to get away from Pueblo, and here I was assigned to room with someone who was from Pueblo! It turned out to be one of the greatest blessings in my life.

Laura is one of the most positive people I have ever met. She has always been there for me, giving me guidance, support, a shoulder to cry on, and a friend to celebrate with. While we are very different, we have been able to support and understand each other throughout the past 13 years. Laura is one of those people that helps me to become a better version of myself. Joseph and I went to visit with Laura and her nephew Kyle. Laura started doing day care, and Kyle is one of her little ones. Joseph and Kyle are about the same age, and they had fun playing together. Laura and Joel are expecting their first child in February. How exciting!
