June 3

Sometimes I'll just be walking along and I'll think "I should take a picture of that," and usually, I do. That's why I have this one from this afternoon after church.

It's Abby (on the right) and her friend Gracie. I've said it before, but I love the two of them together. They both have only brothers, and Abby often refers to her as her sister.

As a woman without a blood sister, I like that she feels that kind of bond with her friend. I know those relationships aren't always without complication, but that kind of closeness is something my heart has always craved. So I'm thankful that my girl has it.
