And my new friends with kids, well....we are always busy it seems. You do not feel these feelings alone. It will come. Life brings you many acquaintances, but only few true friends.Victoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13261858190711349547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14664929.post-46504689404820438082010-04-09T14:42:14.130-05:002010-04-09T14:42:14.130-05:00I HEAR YOU! this speaks SO true.

I have great friends but either they don't work, no kids, kids are different ages, etc. etc. etc. It's so hard to maintain friendships and meeting genuine gals that become great friends is HARD.<br /><br />I think the church/community is a great start. I read something recently (wish i remembered where!) that said when you do find someone you think you could be good friends with invite them over for lunch, and serve peanut butter and jelly. Keep it simple, keep it real and keep it intimate. I thought this was a good approach and knocked down MANY walls right from the start!<br /><br />Do keep us up to date on this journey. And if you need an online friend - HOLLA :)Molly @ Digital Momhttp://www.digitalmomblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14664929.post-81652097209927762702010-04-09T07:33:13.771-05:002010-04-09T07:33:13.771-05:00Cintia, as women isn't it awesome how through ...Cintia, as women isn't it awesome how through the different seasons in our lives we all seem to experience the same kind of feelings? I think you hit the nail on the head when you spoke of "changing". Thats what happens, it's part of life. I think the friends that truly care and want to be part of your life still(after a kid or two) will make that effort. It may be that it is only a couple times a year that you connect, but the effort from those that truly care will still be there. Finding new friends as a mom can be difficult. I was blessed however coming to NCC to fall into a group of mom's (who are all dear friends now)and we all just meshed. I think you are on the right track though, by getting out into the community, you never know who the Lord will place in your path! Pray, that He will put the right women He wants in your life during this season, there for you to notice and embrace. I can tell you one thing though that I have found, if you want it, you have to actively search for it. I can guarantee there are many other women in our community doing the same thing right now, just waiting to be found! As women, we so need other women to surround ourselves with, that understand what trials or difficulties we are facing and rejoice in our triumphs and good days! We need those relationships, because they help us be the women we need to be, and the way God designed us to be, which is in fellowship with one another.<br />Great topic Cintia! <br />P.S. Stephanie, Kathy,Jennifer E., Cindy G, Kyla and myself have been talking about how we really need maybe once a month to get together (with no kids) and just have a girls day! Maybe you can be the catalyst to make it all come together!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04130284986686846072noreply@blogger.com
