Friendships

Yesterday, Derek and I sat down over tea and oranges. 

No t.v., no music, no one else, just the two of us {and Bailey puppy}  

It was nice to actually talk to one another.  

It made me realize that we had gotten so used to coexisting that some where we had stopped being friends. 

This made me sad and I realized I needed to work on my relationships.  

Not just with Derek, but with my friends too.  Friendships are just as important as romantic relationships.  

So my new goal is to work on telling my loved ones and friends that they do matter to me.

{Side note: this is my favorite mug that my 

Aunt Marie gave me. 

It has this sweet little mouse on 

it that makes me so happy every time I use it.}
