Focus on the Friends - Michelle



This is my incredible friend Michelle.  And yes.  That's a pantyliner on her face.

Michelle and I have known each other for many years, in many different capacities.  Her husband's been my husband's boss.  She was my sister-in-law's neighbor.  I've been to Asia with her husband and son.  She's let me borrow some REALLY expensive dresses.  She's let me drive her fancy cars.

But where we became - well - buds, was at our current primary care office.  Michelle came into an office where few were willing to stay (it's unique, to say the least).  She set up processes and systems that I had no idea how to do, and established a practice. 

These things are impressive.  However, this is not all that makes my friend Michelle incredible.  She has a story.  Her life is a story.  I mean a story.   Her story is not mine to tell, it's hers.  But learning of her story has made her my friend and one of my heroes. 

Michelle is honestly one of the highlights of my life.  I cherish the days I've "seen her in action" in the workplace.  She is amazing.  She teaches me things everyday... she keeps me in my place.  

Generous.  Smart.  The hardest-working person you'll meet.  Practical.  Compassionate.  Forgiving.  Evangelistic.  Real.  Genuine.  Honest.  She makes really good sandwiches and really cold ice-water.

I love you friend.
