My Closest Friends

I have these two friends. We've always been close, like "bosom buddies." I've always been very supportive of them, though they never really needed me. They did pretty fine on their own. And honestly, I never really appreciated them for what they were! They were with me every step of the way of my pregnancy with Charlie. They helped me out so much! They always knew exactly what to do when Charlie was fussy. They were so there for me... even in the middle of the night, every night, there for a long time.

Now? Well, honestly, I just don't need them like I used to. Neither does Charlie. And maybe they're sad because of that, but it seems they've fallen on hard times... they really need some support now. And I've never had them so down on me like that and I just didn't know what to do. So I took them someplace that really specializes in that kind of thing. Dr. Vicki. Her "secret" was just the trick to unlocking their full potential. Now, I have to say they were a little disappointed when they found out they wore the. smallest. size. in. the. store. No lie. But about 30 minutes and 45 bucks later they were really perked up and feeling much better!

Glad to have you "back", old friends. At least for now until the next baby comes along one day and I need to rely on you again!

p.s. if you don't know what I'm talking about, you probably don't want to know. ;)

That was hilarious!! Loved it! I'm going to have to visit Dr. Vicki one day, although I don't know when that will be... my friends have been pretty stressed and are starting to show some wear. Oh, the joys of mommyhood!

So I will admit, I am guessing because I am not a mom, I had to read this twice before I realized what friends you were referring to. You are crazy Bethany, but I am glad that Dr. could help!

HAHAHA! This made me laugh!

Can't wait to have mine back all to myself. 8 more months! Oh, goodness!

They are never really the SAME but some sort of normal! The only way they are really back to normal requires surgery.

ok, so who wants to hear from a MIL at a time like this?.....but i just have to say, that Dr. Vicky's secrets run out after age 56, then you need Dr. Vicky's miracle, which $45 won't buy!.....but, enjoy 30 more years of having her "secret" work!

It's not fair when you start out a C, get up to an E, then go back down to a SMALL B. The things we do for our children!

Beth said...

What mom can't identify with this!? Such a funny post and SO true! :) Thanks for a laugh! :)

Erin said...

Oh man, this is something I don't want to hear right now. I'm going to live in ignorant bliss until that day comes. Parker, me, and my two friends are still enjoying a close relationship. :)
