[pampered]

6:14 AM

we (wednesday night girls) had an amazing opportunity to pamper one of our friends, nikki, as a pre-birthday gift.

what an extraordinary woman she is. she will go out of her way help you with whatever you need, listen to your trouble, share her wisdom, even give up the chair she is siting in when she is pregnant (crazy girl). wednesdays she will sit there painting your nails and treat you to paraffin wax, make several dishes to share (she even goes as far as making delicious raw dishes for me). she is a mom of two and possibly any day have her 3rd.

She has been placed on bed rest for the last couple of weeks starting at 32 weeks. have you ever heard of bed rest when you are a mother of two and your husband works extremely long hour days? (doesn't get home til 11)pretty impossible to me.

so our gift to her was to each do/bring something. so we massaged her, painted her hands & toe nails, brought candles, spa music, and a bunch of fun treats.

wednesday for us ladies isn't just about getting together, to talk & eat fun food. no. it has been about encouraging, praying, sharing struggles, pouring out our day-to-day weaknesses with one another for accountability. we come wearing comfy clothes and tired from a long day. i always feel refreshed and pampered, not only from having the time away but by the words of these women. i have been so thankful the Lord has brought these beautiful women into my life so that we can share motherhood together.
