My sister-in-law is AMAZING! She's 31, never married, no kids and adores my kids. She's taken them for weekend sleepovers, to the zoo, the park, played games, etc. Now, she just moved back in with my MIL and has planned her whole life around my 4 year old's preschool schedule. I do in-home daycare and didn't know how she was going to picked up from school so SIL scheduled her classes around my daughter's!!! She's just amazing! One of those people that I could never take for granted. Just had to share!
So, who is your "I couldn't live without"?
It's my best friend. I just can't imagine never speaking to her or seeing her again. She makes me laugh like no one else, understands me, compliments me but is honest, and is just amazing. She would do anything for me.
Ooooh, great question.
Without a doubt, my husband, first and foremost. He is awesome in so many ways... And of course, The Kiddo.
Beyond that, however, it would be my best friend of 19 years. She is just a really great gal and we've had some wonderful adventures together. She makes me laugh hard when I need it and she'll listen without judgment when I need that too. We can both tell each other the hard truth about things --with kindness, without reservations-- and are loyal to each other. (esp. important when someone was trying to actively sabotage our friendship-- some people are nuts!)
My mom. She is the one person that has always been there for me & my family. She will do whatever she can do at a moment's notice. If I needed her to she would drop everything and come to me. We live a 20 hour drive away from one another. She is my best friend as well as my mom. We have a bond that I know can never be broken and I have never met anyone with anything close to it. I am grateful for being blessed with having her in my life she is someone I would never take for granted.
My closest friend. She is my confidante and she is the one person I can say anything to without worrying about censoring or choosing every word carefully. She "gets it". She accepts the not so great sides of me and seems to respect the positive sides. Thank the heavens for girlfriends, or I'd be truly lost!
I am just going to assume that we get to pick someone that isn't our husband or our kids....
My best girl Brook is my anchor. I met her when we were living in a halfway house pregnant with our first kids. I have since moved on, got married, had more children and she has also moved on and is a working single mama. Our lives have almost nothing in common but she is my GIRL! I can call her when I need to run away for an evening, I can count on her to tell me the truth even when it's uncomfortable. She is a straight talker, funny, loving, generous. I would be lost without her.

WOW! I feel incredibly blessed, I have so many people around me who step up and help with the kids, help with all other aspects of my life - good days, bad days!
But I will say out all of them. The one person I call when I can't handle something or I have the most fantastic news! Is my husband. He by far is better to me than I am him. He carries the weight of this family, he is our rock, he is our hero, he is our glue...good/bad/beautiful and ugly! He is AMAZING!
On those occasions where I forget how amazing he is. I have my best friend (since we were Freshmen in HS)...
Well besides the obvious being my husband and son, I would have to say my brother. We are best friends, and I wouldn't know what to do without him.
My parents. They made me who I am, and they continue to be my anchors. I know one day I will have to let them go, but I know that when that happens, I will be absolutely lost.
And, of course, my husband. And my kids. That goes without saying. :)
I don't have anyone in my life like this except for my husband. You are blessed. =)
Hubby? I have no friend that lives near by that I can't live without.
I don't know what I'd do without my mom. She takes the kids for me all the time.
Other then my daughter, my friend Lauren. We met a few years ago at school and she is just amazing. She's smart, ambitious, caring, funny.... she's just awesome. And she gets me. We have so much in common in our lives and she just gets it with me. Whenever either of us has some sort of stress going on we call each other and vent it all out and it makes it manageable. She always makes me feel better. She gets my sarcasm, my jokes, and it's because she thinks like me. You ever had a person that everything she says you're like yes, I'm right there, I totally get it? That's how Lauren and I are. We just click.
Plus she turned me onto Grey's Anatomy (I mean, who could ask for more, right?! LOL)
Having had people drop off the perch and drop out of life, i have realised that there is no one person i couldn't live without. I have to be self sufficient emotionally, financially and every other way. Unfortunately.
I would be devastated without my children though.
Of course my husband. He works so hard to provide and do his part for our family. He's my best friend, we've been through so much together.
Other than him I would say my sister. She is my bestie and we always have so much fun together, and she is wonderful with my son, and he loves her something fierce.
