Larissa writes… “Melea & I met at church and have been friends for about 2 years now, but it feels like we’ve known each other all of our lives! I really wanted to meet her because she is so outgoing and friendly, that you just want to be around her more!
I also knew she & her husband had lost their baby daughter and my husband and I had recently lost our baby daughter, so I really wanted to get to know her. It took us a few months to get together, but once we did, we realized we were like long lost sisters & best friends.?
We have found that we are so much alike and she really is my best friend. Click here to catch up with Julia’s conversation with Larissa on the morning show.
We both lost our baby daughters a few years ago. That was our common ground.
We found out our daughters were born 2 years apart– her Emma on May 15th, and my Nadia on May 23rd. We were both due on Sept. 12th, 2 yrs apart. We even have the same Lamb & Angel design on their headstones at their final resting place. There is so much more that we have in common, I don’t have enough room to write it all!!
We do almost everything together with our husbands and without. It doesn’t matter that wherever we are, we can look at each other and know what the other is thinking. Or, we can just call each other up and talk forever!
I know God brought her into my life, just when I needed her and I think that she feels the same about me! What a blessing she is to me & my friend for life!
