This is us. Chloe to the left, I'm on the right. We love our matching sweatshirts {which you have yet to hear about}! Also to be noted: this picture was taken on New Year's Eve. :)
Yada, yada, yada, she is a really good friend. You've heard that in these last few posts over and over, because IT'S TRUE! All these ladies, and specifically speaking about Chloe today, are precious ladies and amazing friends. I have lived through seasons when I didn't have godly, consistent friends like them. I know that I can perservere, but in this season + in this area of my life I'm glad I don't have to! :)
Chloe has numerous nicknames. Chizzy, CJ, Broseph, that cool kid-- all sorts. So, if you hear any one of these names you know who we are speaking of. :)
Her heart is so kind. She is quick to forgive, quick to help, quick to listen. When I was the new girl at church, Chloe was the first girl my age to make me feel welcome. Although we didn't become good friends until many months later, I will never forget her initial kindness. We love to be silly together. Like me, she is very quiet at first. I introduced her to Pinterest {I'm a terrible monster-creator}. The very night the above picture was taken we had a "HopeFULLY Romantic New Year's Eve Sleepover Extravaganza!" We prayed, talked, giggled, made lists, wrote, pinned, read, walked, and watched a movie--and we got home from our other New Year's Eve party at 11:30ish. Needless to say, we stayed up all night getting our second wind at 5AM leading to another hour long chat session. With all of this said, her companionship isn't taken for granted. We are on a BibleQuiz team together {Mariah is as well}. She is a hard worker and she doesn't realize at times how wonderful of one she actually is!
So many things to say...
Chloe has a heart of gold. We share so many memories together.
She has two sisters--one older, one younger. I talk to her daily and if I don't something just doesn't feel right. Broseph is such a good encourager. When I'm feeling down, she strictly tells me what's up and then makes me laugh. :) She reminds us of truth when our minds are clouded. Like I said above, there are SO MANY things to say about Chloe that I feel pressured to share at once.
But, I will be back and these blogs weren't to share alot of details, but to give you a glimpse of the girls behind the stories + musings.
Aren't they lovely?
So, dear Chloe, thank-you for being the sweet friend that you are. You are amazing, girl. I can depend on you and I pray you know the same about me. I look forward to what God is going to do in our continued years of friendship! You rock, girlfriend. Keep shinin'! I love ya.
^^enjoying my first cup of coffee in 2013 and Chizzy enjoying her first proper cup EVER!
