Blessings

Lord... Thank you so very much for EACH and EVERY single person in my life!  You have surrounded me with  your angels and I thank you for loving me so much!  I pray they all know how special they are to me, and that no matter what trials they are currently going through, that they know you are with them, and that you LOVE them just the way they are - and that it will be alright because of you.  AMEN.

From the Inside Out-- AMEN

Multiple Coats Needed

I've recently discovered that my life lessons often requires more than one application, and even then it takes a long time to soak in. Thick skull I suppose. What's currently marinating is one I heard in "He's Just Not That Into You."

Lesson #1- I am the rule... NOT the exception.

Lesson #2- Am I worth it???? DUH! If you disagree then there's no room for you in my life!

Steadfast little Miss!

We were all sitting at the dinner table tonight chit chatting about Sienna's upcoming vacation.
Sienna - "Nothing is going to be able to talk me out of going on my vacation to see my Daddy!  Just try it!  Just try!!"
Me (in a very matter of fact voice) - "Sienna, I'll buy you a pony."
Sienna - "Nope."

She then turns and looks at me, dead serious - "But Mom, I'd still really like a pony!!!!!!"

Thank you God for giving me this bit of happiness!  :-)

FEELIN' GOOD

SMILE - FIND JOY IN THE LITTLE THINGS!!

When college sells you lemons...

Sitting in Calculus class every Mon and Wed evening- fighting the urge to weep because my instructor's method of teaching and my method of learning are opposites.  BUT ---  I am an intelligent, resourceful, and most importantly, persistent woman.  This will not beat me - I WILL CONQUER CALCULUS!!  Gonna be drinking some lemonade before I know it!

I Believe in a Thing Called LOVE

Have I been completely ruined by corny romantic movies and sappy love songs??? Perhaps. Do I keep hoping that one day I will find the person that was made JUST FOR ME and we will live happily ever after??? Every day of my life. Will there be difficult times, and tears, and hurt? Yes - Will it be worth it? Absolutely. I just have to keep thinking that this is part of my journey, and when we are ready, we will meet. Everyday will be one step closer.
