My S-I-L

My s-i-l (we shortened sister-in-law as a joke a long time ago), Laura, left today after spending the weekend with us.  We're great friends, and we spent the whole weekend talking and laughing.  We had one last conversation this morning right before she left - yes, we talked right up to the last minute!  It's strange to think that I would have never known her if I hadn't met Jeff because we're so much alike.  So many people come in and out of our lives, but God connects a few of us to each other in a special way.  I find that connection with my s-i-l, and I found God today in her bright smile, the last conversation we managed to fit in, and the blessing of our friendship.
