Mirrim, the Beloved

So, I have this friend.  I know her from Amtgard, and her Amtgard name is Mirrim.  But her real name is Jenny.  I haven't known her for very long, but had to put a post in here giving her the props she so deserves.  She is an amazing person, mother, wife and friend.  I can't say enough good about this person.  She hardly knows me and has already given me so much.  She has given me kindness, love, gifts, friendship, and much needed advice.  

I have to give a little back story to complete the post I wanted to do here.  In Amtgard, Dave 

and I are in a company.  This company is called the Iron Wulves.  Dave is the captain, and I am a member.  Everyone knows the Iron Wulves who are all great individuals.  I can't say enough about my company mates.  Well, I am not so great at sewing tunics for women.  It turns out that every time I try, I can't, so I have worn a man tunic from the beginning.  Which wasn't a problem until I became pregnant.  Or until I became pregnant enough to show a bit, and therefore became uncomfortable in my regular tunics.  I had one Saturday where I literally "freaked out" and wasn't going to go because I had "nothing" to wear.  I found some cute things to wear to Dragon Blade Wars (all borrowed), but had yet to come up with a solution as to a tunic to wear to the regular park day.  Well, this wonderful friend of mine Mirrim, made me a maternity tunic.  Not only did she make a tunic, but she "made" a tunic.  It is beautifully made.  It has french seams, and lots of other terms I don't know.  It is very well done, and cute to boot.  Not only did she take all the time to make me one, she drove from Eagle Mountain all the way to Liberty park to bring it to me by herself with her three kids.  I was so overwhelmed, I didn't know how to express myself.  I am hoping she reads this and understands just how much it meant to me.  I attached a photo. 

It was so amazing!!  She is so amazing.  I see in her how I would love to be.  A wonderful mother of three beautiful and amazingly well behaved kids, a great cook, a seamstress, who keeps a well kept home, an avid member of her church and has always made Dave and I feel so incredibly welcome.  She also made me banana bread when I was having a craving for it, and lent me all the maternity clothes I wear (which are so dang cute, thank you, thank you).   I just had to post and give my Beloved and Blessed friend Mirrim a well deserved public tribute.  Thank you so much! You'll never know how much I have truly appreciated your friendship.
