BBSMF is truly a term of endearment. It cannot be used in any ordinary situation.
B - Bestie
B - Boo
S - Sister
M - Momma
F - Friend
There are PLENTY more picture of us - but you get the "gist" =)
Okay, I know we aren't in high school anymore. But if you knew the story of how this lady and I became BBSMF's you'd understand. I know you know, where I'm going with this Trent. Just be patient. ;-)
I have the greatest friend a girl could ask for. She's been there through EVERYTHING, and the situations, haven't always been "inviting". We are joined by extremely "hard to understand" (or so we are told) life events. We have children that are siblings. We didn't know each other prior to all of our children being born, but you'd think we had been friends since the schoolyards. She is my bestie. She is my Boo. She is my sister. In most situations, she is my momma. But she is and will always be my best friend. She is the one I cry too when all S&*^ hits the fan, she is the one I call to laugh with, and no matter how much time goes by between hearing her voice/seeing her - I think about her everyday. When we are blessed to have the time to chit-chat (aka: listen to me cry) or see each other, it's as if time has never passed. She's strong, smart, beyond kind, funny, and absolutely adorable with her "tervis" (Dt. Cherry Pepsi) in hand... (at all times). I couldn't have asked for a better soulmate.
When Trent and I started dating, he knew that Kacey would be the one to "win over" or it was a no-go. Of course, the mom, the brother, the family - - but everyone knows, if the BF doesn't like him? He ain't staying. He has ALWAYS respected the relationship that I have with her and he even thinks she's kinda cool... (He had better!) Anyhow, it only makes since why he chose her to bless me during this "silent" time apart from each other. When Trent is gone, I thrive on his e-mails. I wait for them on the daily - they are my life source when he is gone. During this deployment, the majority of our communication has been cut off... completely, and for VERY long periods of time. My first initial thought was, "WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?" (Selfish, I know) SO, He decided then that he wasn't going to disappear completely....
Today I recieved an email, from Trent - from Kacey (my BBSMF). Trent pre-wrote more than a few emails for her to send to me at specific times during this silent period. Even though I know they are not "current" and "up to date" - they are from him. I cannot control when they come, I can't open them all at once. They all have a purpose. He chose my BF to be the deliver-er of these messages and that makes me fall in love even more than before (If that was even possible)
Here is an excerpt from my first "silent" email:
This is email one. I miss you like crazy. I know this time is going to suck, but I know we can push through it and I am looking forward to seeing you before you know it. I hate this as much as you do, I promise. ............... want to cuddle with you. Well I will get you another email, before you know it!
I love you
Trent
Of course there is plenty I'm NOT going to share - - besides.... who needs a sobfest?!
KACEY. Thank you for blessing me with your friendship today, and everyday. I'm so grateful to have a friend, that not only supports me, but loves me like family. I, too, hope to be the friend to you that you have always been for me. Besides, you're stuck with me.... Got it?!
Trent - You are incredible. Thank you for going the extra mile and preparing the way for me to "get through" this crappy part of this "adventure". And you better thank your lucky stars that my BBSMF came up with this idea to share with you. (wink wink) I love you baby. Can't wait to read the next one! Because it means I'm one more day closer to being with you!
