Ahh this really hits it on the head. Having a friend you can talk things out with- ridiculous things, hard things, the way something makes you feel, is the best. And part of that is being able to argue! But it takes a while to get there, too. You want to be happy for a friend. you want to keep your jealousy quiet.
But you know? A friend who loves you might not mind hearing "I've been in kind of a slump."
Also I love getting to see the baby again! Just as beautiful as papa.
