Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day...

I think I woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.
I am in a grump funk. 
I think I will blame it on my raging hormones. :)
My good friend Danielle and I used to read this book:


whenever we were having a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. 
Yes, we were 18- and your point? :)
I think I need to go buy it today. 
AND a big 'ol ice cream cone. I don't know anyone who is grumpy while licking on a big 'ol ice cream cone. 
Bye for now.

My Stripes!

Mason and I were taking a shower this morning.

He looks at my very swollen stomach and says, "Whoa, cool stripes Mom!"

I almost fell over, I was laughing so hard.

The Man I Love...




I am blessed to be a part of this wonderful man's world.

He is the most talented- handsome- loving- goes out of his way to make me smile- man I have ever known!

We went from 0 to 100mph almost overnight and I have cherished every day. 

I love you baby. 

Here's to forever.

Reflecting.

I feel as if I have lived more life than 24 years worth. 
I have been asked to walk some journeys that I would not wish upon anyone.
Looking back, I feel blessed to be asked to walk those journeys. Where would I be today without that knowledge, that wisdom, that growth?

I look back and have my regrets.
However, EVERY single thing God has put into my life has made me that much stronger, 
that much more capable and that much more sure that I cannot do this all by myself-even as a stronger, more capable, more respectable woman.

I often get stuck on songs that reflect something to me at a certain point in my life. 
In fact, there are times I hear a song and bounce back to another time for a moment. 
I have actually felt a flash of depression or a moment of pride, like I felt at those exact moments, when hearing a song that reminds me of that time, a song that I connected with at a particular point in my life. 

Music is so amazingly healing.

This is a song that I connect with right now. It's not a new one, but a good one.





This is my life
Its not what it was before
All these feelings I’ve shared
And these are my dreams
That I’ve never lived before
Somebody shake me
Cause I, I must be sleeping

(chorus)
And now that we're here,
So far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
And all the mistakes,
One life contained
They all finally start to go away
And now that we're here its so far away
And I feel like I can face the day
I can forgive, and I’m not ashamed to be the person that I am today

These are my words
That I’ve never said before
I think I’m doing ok
And this is the smile
That I’ve never shown before

Somebody shake me
Cause I, I must be sleeping

(chorus)
And now that were here
So far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
And all mistakes one life contains
They all finally start to go away
And now that were here
So far away
And I feel like I can face the day
I can forgive, and I’m not ashamed to be the person that I am today

I'm so afraid of waking
Please don't shake me
Afraid of waking
Please dont shake me

(chorus)
And now that were here
So far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
And all the mistakes one life contains
They all finally start to go away
And now that were here
So far away
And I feel like I can face the day
I can forgive, and I’m not ashamed to be the person that I am today

Short but Sweet...

I have about a million half written, saved posts. 

My life is too busy to even blog at the moment, and my "free" time is usually spent napping. 

This pregnancy is zapping me and I am resting my tired body as much as I can. 

Life is good.

I will update more soon. 

Good-night.
