My husband and I are lucky to know some incredible individuals and have them in our lives. No matter the distance, these people are family (whether genetics are shared or not).

These are the kind of people you can cry with, celebrate with, talk with, be authentic with, etc… These people do not make you feel judged- they listen and see you, and all the gifts you have to offer, and you can easily reciprocate right back.

My husband and I always simplify the description of these amazing individuals by saying that they are “good people”.

We went to dinner with some truly good people last night and I wanted to share a couple silly photos.

Susan and her husband Johnny are the epitome of wonderful.

Susan and I clicked as soon as we met over four years ago (and it truly seems as if we have known each other for a lifetime, or more).

In November 2008, she brought me to the doctor when I was too sick to have the energy to go on my own (she most likely saved my life)… and she has encouraged and supported me in so many other ways since, and before, that situation.

Susan was my sounding board and support during a time when I was virtually alone in a new town, and she has continued to be a “sister from another mister”.

I cherish Susan and our friendship, and I am so proud to have such a beautiful bond with her.

Okay, all done with the gooey stuff … on to the previously mentioned pictures from last night. Jerry and I sent a comical picture to Susan and Johnny while we were driving to the restaurant, and Susan and Johnny sent one right back!
