Wesley and I were supposed to head to Panama yesterday morning.  But baby got his first fever and turns out it is a nasty little virus.   Last time we were there I was waddling down the aisle, eight months pregnant, as a bridesmaid and JB as a groomsman.  I met Haley at our rehearsal dinner on January 15th, 2010.  They came over the night after the wedding and we toasted over some Seco Herrarano.  If you would have told me I was toasting with one of my soon to be dearest friends or that we’d one day live together in Panama, I would have been surprised.  At 26 I foolishly thought I’d already met and made all of my life long friends.  How grateful I am that that is not true.  How exciting that makes for the future.  Haley is the most pure of heart person I know.  She is beautiful (she was in Miss USA!) and poised and would be all kinds of intimidating in human form if she wasn’t so kind, humble, honest and like I’ve already said – pure of heart.  And so funny!  I don’t know that we’ve ever been with each other and not cried due to laughing so hard.  When she asked me to be her daughters god mother I was so honored.  I really will be praying for her, rooting her on, and spoiling her in any and every way I can think of, all the days of my life.  I’d already wrestle an alligator for her!  She’s the best, just like her mom.  So while I wish we were able to be there tomorrow, for her Baptism, I know she’ll understand one day that I had to take care of her boyfriend (;
