LOL! This was our club's name back in the day. We laugh about it now because it was so... cheesy. We been best friends since the diaper days. Our club was all about each other, dancing (BEST PART about our "hip club"), acting, talk about boys, God, and sisters squabbling at each other. We were inseparatable!
These girls inspired me to be me. My sister's always been with me. She's my other 'half'. Dunno where'd I be without her! Honestly. She's my pillar. Both Jessie and Hattie have inspired me artistically. Jessie helped to bring me out of my "shell" and unveil strengths I have within me. Hattie encouraged me to be me and comfy where I stand. Word Tracey gave both of us was "tenacious" (sp?).
More good news! Hattie is due any minute with a baby! ^See her round tummy? It's cool to think me 'n Yo are going to be aunties. Watch out Hattie, we're going to spoil the baby!
Lately we have drawn a lot closer. Spiritually too. It's kind of funny, I feel Hattie 'n I are going through a lot of the same stuff together and going through spiritual issues just the same (Our life as worship before our Lord, surrender into our Creator's hands, our "Lonely" journey, leadership... a lot). We have refined one another over holidays and when we went to Vic for the weekend. I love it! Love sharing journey with someone. It's weird. It's really mysterious.
These girls have been there when I've needed them. They're my "safety net" I fall back on. My "fortress-es" I retreat to...
PS. Probably wondering why we called ourselves the 'Soul Bleachers'... well we've thought long and hard about some sweet names to call ourselves and... came up with this. The idea is: we are Christians, we know God, love God, He loves us, and we are making a difference in the world (our valley) we are in. We are 'cleaning agents' to wash off those around us and ummm we are "bleaching souls" to be white=PURITY. We were letting them see God through us (and our performances of dance, acting, friends, etc).

Jess I think your lipstick needs to be a bit darker.
