a fairytale friendship

when my stepdaughter was married, even though the marriage did not last as long as the preparation of the food for the reception took, something really really cool happened for me as a direct result of being there that day. i met my stepdaughters godmother. we became really good friends. my friend "mcfab" is the gorgeous blonde fairy godmother and i of course am the wicked stepmother with the mean silver streak. i dont think that silver was there til i became a stepmother though!

<---me and mcfab~there we are pictured to the left. funny thing is not only do we sort of look like these photos but our personalities are sort of similar to the way you might imagine these two would act if they were animated!

<---here is a photo of mcfab dressed in her wish granting getup on a fine fall day! notice her beautiful wings! there is a grim reaper standing behind her but she is too positive to let that get her down! mc is so creative and fun and she is an awesome writer and just such a loyal good pal. it was a real blessing in my life to be there and meet her that day and to get her email address and start a penpalling around relationship that is just intelligent, silly and cool. mcfab knew about inner child stuff and did not think i was a kook when i started telling her about being a child, being creative and all the stuff i was learning about myself, because she was a child inside too. of course! the friendship we share is honest and fulfilling and i love that. i love it that i can just say anything that crosses my mind and not have to worry about this person accepting who i am right now because we are on a journey and nothing we are experiencing right now is going to stay the same for a long time because the path goes on and we grow, learn, and change and thats cool too. i love it that this person knows that a bad day will pass and a nutty idea that may or may not work is still worth trying.

and what do you think that fairy godmothers and wicked stepmothers do when they get together?! Would you believe they play with tiny unicorns? yep i would say we share a fairy tale friendship~who'd've imagined?
