Last Night

Last night I went to the Chicago Group to hear my friend, Sheri, tell her story. I'm awed at the beautiful woman she has become. I remember meeting her early in her journey and she was CRAZY. Her nickname was Zoom Zoom. She still moves pretty quickly but in a totally different direction. She's very involved in her church, she goes on several mission trips a year, she works tirelessly for the homeless. This is the girl who likes to have pedicures and would love to have unlimited access to Jimmy Choo shoes. She's also the girl who comes home from her mission trips talking about the children she's worked with who have head lice and she hugs anyway. Also the ones who are terribly excited just to be able to go to the bathroom, successfully. I feel very blessed that she (and so many other fabulous women) are in my life. It gives me something to aim for and the bar is pretty high.
