FRIENDS- not the tv show

There were 17 bodies sleeping under my roof last night. (I did count the frog and the hamster).  We just had a weekend packed with conversation, laughter, food, and friendship.  I was blessed tremendously by our visitors and actually hope that it happens again soon. Michael crawled into bed last night and said, "I love having a house full of friends".  I felt so thankful in that moment that the 2 families who came to visit were as easy going and accepting as they were; and everyone was able to enjoy one another. I'm thankful that Michael has these men in his life who he genuinely connects with.  I think it's so important to have such relationships and while Michael is loved by many and has always been so easy to be around socially; I've never seen him so comfortable and content as he is when he is around these guys.  It's one of those things that makes me genuinely happy. To hear him laugh so much this weekend was awesome.
