Amy is the one


I need to say something about an amazing lady. My dear friend Amy who has been in my life for the past 10 years. Well, she is my friend and Alex's other mommy. She is known as my partner or at least she likes to think of herself that way. She is Alex's god mother, tooth fairy and best friend. She has taken care of Alex since the day he was born and was having log talks with my belly while I was pregnant already planning play dates with Alex before he was born. She was the one who kept me laughing when I was down and drove me crazy when I was up. She is the one who told me that Mike was crazy about me and that I should go get him. She has been a tried and true friend and I love her. She knows this but I have never written it down like this before. 

Amy is an amazing person who loves life and cares deeply about many things. She is an artist, professor, avid reader, major fan and lover of Kevin! She is outrageous, loud and honest to a fault. She is one of a kind and wonderful.

Don't get me wrong we have a real friendship and we are not perfect but we work at it and over the years we have grown something exceptional.

Amy is also going to donate her right kidney to Mike in 29 days. When she first was tested as a match she thought she was blood type A like me. Turns out she is O+ and a perfect match for Mike. I can only say that we are so lucky to have her in our lives. Over the years we have had tuff times and amazing times. It is a life we cherish. She is brave and generous!
