I had a play date today at my house with a very dear friend of mine. One who I don't see as much as I want to, but love every second I get with her.
It's so refreshing to hang out with a Mom that understands why your child is running around barefoot or why your toes aren't painted the newest and coolest shade.
I love getting together with her b/c I never feel embarrassed about how we live or feel the need to explain why we're thinking of buying another old Ford truck and not the hippest, newest Mommy-van.
I also love that our kids are so close in age and she totally gets why my daughter throws plates and dirt.
And most of all, I love talking to her. We talk about everything under the sun and just click.
And of course, I love play dates with her b/c her child wears my child out leaving her blissfully napping for two hours afterwards.

I love this post :)
Friends like that are rare!
Those kinds of play dates are just AWESOME! lol I LOVE the long naps afterwards :)
It's always awesome to have amazingly supportive friends who accept us no matter what!
I thought this was going to be a sarcastic post. But if I had a friend like that I'd love playdates too :-)
You are so fortunate! I am, like you, a girl who marched to the jingle of my own tambourine and I plan to parent the same way. I hope that I can find a great friend, like you have, each place we get stationed!
I LOOOOOOVVEEEEE friends like that!
