How the Mommies Met!

It is always exciting to meet new people and getting to know them. I love it more then most think which I believe is why excel in my line of work. But the funny part is how I meet my friends. How I met my husband is a very funny and I do have to admit cute story. But that is for another day. This is about the mommies.

It was a cold winters day. HAHA. I was working at a local hotel as a front desk agent. In other words the first person you see and the last person you see coming in and leaving the hotel. I would spark up conversations just to pass the time checking people in. I took the time getting to know our guests. This guy with a funny accent checked in with one of our corp group training classes.  His accent really wasn't all that funny but he stood out. We started talking about our kids and spouses. My daughter just turned 10 months and his little girl just turned 2 months. We shared photos and chatted when he would pass on his way in and out of class.
The last night he was there he was showing me some adorable photos of his little girl wearing these most adorable hair pieces. He then told me his wife made them. Right then and there I knew I would like her because she was crafty and a mommy. He gave me his information and I instantly friend-ed her on Facebook. It was slow to start but eventually we would start talking almost everyday.
We would talk and share and comment on each others photos and realized hey we actually like each other. That right there was the start to a beautiful long distance friendship. Although we hardly talk on the phone. Maybe one or two phone conversations we are always texting and messaging and emailing and commenting on each others stuff.  I do have to say. Although our friendship started off in the most unusual way I wouldn't change it for the world. I love her just the way she is. Now if that isn't a cute how we met story I don't know what it is.
It is crazy how you can live thousands of miles away and still have a good friendship with someone. In away I like it. You have less drama. But I thought it would be nice to share because I had someone ask me how we met. Now you know.

Tell us about your long distance friendships. Do you have any friends you met in nontraditional sort of way? We are looking forward to hearing from you!
