Thank You "Mom Friend"


Dear mom friend, you are the greatest! You know who you are. You’re the friend who is beyond her years, who takes care of her little ducklings. You’re the sane one in your friend group.

You’re the momma bear at the bar - from keeping creepers away from your flock to counting everyone getting back into the Uber.

You’re the ultimate bargain hunter. You have coupons from every store imaginable, and you always come home with a great grocery haul.

Speaking of groceries, you also know what to do with those groceries. You can make pretty much anything out of anything.


You’re the one spraying the friends who are sunburn-prone more than once at the beach.

You make sure that your friends text you when they are home safe and sound.

When people are over, you’re the ultimate hostess when it comes to potlucks, birthday parties, making sure everyone is comfortable and, of course, fed.

You’re the friend holding our hair after a party and making sure we drink plenty of water before passing out.

You’re always there to decipher texts from the POI of the week.

You’ve been there rubbing our backs and handing us tissues while we spill to you all of our regrets from the night before.

You’ve always reasoned with us when we’ve considered going all C Underwood on an ex.

You are always down for a Ben and Jerry’s run at that special time of the month.

When things go haywire and we are “ legit so done,” you’re there to hold down the fort.

You always make sure everyone is fed all the time; you’re basically a soup kitchen 24/7 for your broke college friends.

You’re everyone’s Mary Poppins, whose purse and room literally has anything we could ever need.

You’ve got us hooked to daytime TV shows like "The Chew," and HGTV and the Food Network.

You make sure everyone’s shows get recorded and everyone is caught up with them.

You’ve always have the candy from Dollar General in your purse for when we go to the movies.

Last but not least thank you for always coming in with the W, with the ugly sweaters for Tacky Sweater Parties.

So, thank you, mom friend. Thank you for being there for us during the highs and lows, and for always supporting and loving us unconditionally.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
