People Be Real

Okay, so this past week I have been fortunate enough to have had some very thoughtful conversations with a few friend who has truly meant the world to me!  It is amazing how when you have life changing events in your life your world becomes crazy, yet still becomes complete.  My thoughtful conversations have let to more conversations and a lot of self evaluation of what I truly want out of life.  A few things I do know for sure. 
~ I want to be happy!
~ I want to spend my life with someone who truly loves me!
~ I want my husband to be a God fearing man, who will take charge of our home!
~ I don't want to be with someone who will say "I'll go to church with you if it is what you want."  I want to be with someone who takes my hand, leads me to the car, opens the door, lets me in, drives us to church and we walk through life's joys and sorrows together.
~ I want to be with someone who will listen to and take into consideration my concerns and desires and make the final decisions in our home.
~ I want someone who will take my hand and lead me out of the dark should I end up there.
~ I want someone who will respect my boundaries and wishes until the ring is on my finger and the I Do's have been spoken.
~ I want to enjoy life
~ I want to wake up everyday next to my best friend and the love of my life.

You may call me old fashion with some of my terms, but I would say to you, look at society, look at what society calls normal, acceptable and average.  If you can live with that, great; but I can't.  I've lived with past individuals I was in a relationship with, it didn't work for me.  I've felt as though I was truly in the pits of Hell and struggling for air.  It is amazing how easily what society deems acceptable can become your very own definition of acceptable.  I get angry with myself for letting my standards become average.  However, I need to remember, I serve a God with amazing love and forgiveness.  A God who loves me no matter the mistakes I have made.  I trust that he will guide me through life, and through these decisions and choices.  I will arm myself with his weapons and fight his fight. 
My prayer is to find that someone who will fit all of my terms and all of God's as well.  I pray that God will guide me in doing his will and keep my feet on his path.  I am thankful to God that he has put new people into my life!  I am thankful for my new friendship and our conversations and support of one another.
I know I am not perfect and far from it.  I do not claim to be by any means.  I know at times I fall short of my own standards and I know I fall short of Gods'.  However I am striving to become a better person everyday.  Who knows; maybe God has already put this person into my life!?!  How sweet would that be!  All I know is the past week, although challenging to face the day's, has been one of my happiest!!  Thank you!

My oh my how life changes...

This will be short, but my how life changes.  Right now I am studying for my Insurance exam's.  Crazy hard!!  Keeping busy with life and friends, but there is a reason and season for everything, and today's reason and season are not by accident!  I know there is always a purpose, and God will show this to me at his time; I just need to remain obedient and follow his path!

Graduation Party!

Graduation

WOW!! It finally happened! I Graduated college!!! How exciting! I'm so excited to have accomplished this. It took a lot of hard work, determination and late nights, but I did it! Here are some of the pictures from the events!

Tennesee

So, I realize my trip to Tennessee was a few months ago, however I still wanted to post about it. I enjoyed seeing my neice and being able to enjoy spending time with my sister, Alex and brother-in-law, Seth! It was a nice week!

The Closing of One Chapter, The Beginning of Another

Well, It's been two months since I've updated my blog here. A lot has happened! To begin the new year, I began my FINAL college class! What a thrill; 5 weeks straight Friday night for 4 hours and Saturday for 6 hours. The same week I started my class the triplets also started their first swim class; and what fun this was. All of this wrapped up the end of February. I was so excited, relived and exhausted to finish up school! What a wonderful feeling to know that I have accomplished this goal! Now all I have to do is wait until May to walk across the stage!
As for what I am looking forward to; I will be taking of to see my sister, Alex, my favorite brother-in-law, Seth, and my wonderful niece, Hayden!

Winter Break

Well, It has been nice to be off work this week, however I miss the Zuck family like CRAZY! However, I am not missing the 5:30am alarm going off!!! I was able to go over and see the family Wednesday afternoon, and I had a wonderful day visiting with all of them. Lots off their family had come into town, so I enjoyed being able to visit with all of them as well. Not like we don't already talk to Mi-Mi via web cam enough!! Babies are doing great! Getting big and healthy, and gearing up to crawl. Christmas this year was great! Chad and I have had lots of fun playing with our new "toys" and spending time with friends. I've been lost in Tech world lately, in part due to getting a new iTouch, docking station for my lap top and a new printer! (THANKS CHAD!!!) Anyway, I should go back to attempting to accomplish something while I'm off work this week.
