I know, I know...it's not Friday. buuut last Friday I missed it and I didn't have time last night, sooo I'm doing a fabulous friend Friday post today. Saturday.
Today, I think I'll talk about my dear friend JJ. Aka. Jess. Aka. Jessica. :)
I wish I could include her picture but I'm in MD and it's not seeming to work on this computer...
I have known JJ for about 4ish years I guess you could say. I THINK we met when I was a freshie in college and she was a junior. We weren't really friends though until a couple years ago. (before that we were really only friends by association)
We got to be closer when I was a junior and somehow we really just clicked.
She is the type of person you always just feel comfortable around...even if you don't really know her. She has a special way of connecting with people that I find pretty awesome.
We're both pretty introverted people at heart. AND we are both only children. (I mean I don't know many really...so it's cool)
I love joking around and laughing with her.
but, I love that we can also talk about serious things and confide in each other. We've had many a heart to heart!
I always feel like I can tell her basically anything and she won't judge me for it. Which I love.
It has been SO special this summer because since she moved to my area (after being newly married!) she was able to get a job as the Bible teacher at camp. It's been sooo sweet, and an awesome blessing from God. (I get to see her basically everyday.)
It's especially sweet because when I was still in school, we saw each other nearly every day. We basically had a routine down... and then the next year we hardly ever saw each other because she moved. I was serioulsy deprived of JJ. Read here. (<---WARNING the post is longgg (and not all about that) ha) So it's been EVEN more special in that way.
We've done soo many fun things together. Sleepover during a snowstorm. Hiking through waist high snow in that snowstorm to sled, while getting icicles stuck on our eye lashes. Unlimited hours playing monopoly deal, pinochle and hearts while eating ranch sunflower seeds and drinking water melon slushies. Watching friends. Building an epic fort. Playing cello and singing like whales. haha:) and the list goes on...
A couple of summers ago her and I and Amanda felt like we were all in similar places with God, kind of a low place, and that's when we started the "tuesday group" (If you click on that link to the right there's more detail there) It was for a short time but felt awesome that we all wanted to try to get close with God together. It meant a lot to me.
I love you Jessica Lynn Mooney! You are so special to me and I'm incredibly greatful for our friendship. :)
