You know who you are.....

So today I decided to post a blog for a certain someone, she knows who she is (I hope) She is so strong and SO beautiful. And is SO much stronger than she thinks. She's been my hero and my rock for so long! Here are some inspirational quotes for her.....

"Life isnt about the cards you get dealt, its how you play the cards your dealt."

"If life feels like an up hill battle sometimes, just remember the view from the top is breathtaking"

"The big guy upstairs NEVER gives you more than you can handle"

"It doesn't matter how weak you think you are, if your still standing and wondering if you can get through this, then the answers, yes you can and your stronger than you think!"

"Do not let circumstances influence your thoughts and moods. By rising over them mentally, you will eventually rise over them materially."

"If you can imagine it you can create it, if you can dream it, you can become it!"

"Dont aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and the rest will fall into place"

"You don't fail when you fall, you fail when you don't get back up!"

"When life offers you a challenge, grab it and aim for the sky, soar to heights you never imagined, don't let them say you didn't try."

"Hope is the ability to hear the music of the future, faith is the courage to dance to it."

"Sometimes all you can do is step up to the plate, and take your swings."

"Sometimes you need to get lost in order to find your way"

"We are not earthly beings on a spiritual journey...we are spiritual beings on an earthly journey"

I hopeyour reading this and realize how amazing you are. I love you lots. Keep your chin up. <3

Lucky.....

So the other day I was talking to my mama ( I've been doing this alot since i've been stuck at home with swine flu) and I realized how lucky I am that I can go to my mom with ANYTHING. I can tell this woman anything, and she laughs with me, cries with me, prays for me, loves me. She's my rock :). We were talking about Nick and I. Our conversation went as follows: "Are you getting married" "Yes" "When?" "Next year" "Are you sure?" "Yes, I love him." "I love him too. I would love to have him as a son in law, and he's been really good for you". That last comment made me think. Dont get me wrong I love him to death but how has he been good for me? And as I thought about it I realized. I am a TOTALLY different person. The church means more to me than ever before because I know through it I can be sealed to Nick forever. And to our family. My family is SO important to me, and he respects that. He knows that they are my best friends, and they are his too. He has showed me how a guy should really treat a girl. At first I was like, "Why would he randomly buy me flowers? What did he do?" And my dad kindly told me "Thats what guys do for there girlfriends, its just to show he loves you. I know you don't know this cause your used to dating dirt bags" Haha gotta love the subtlety there. I love my daddy :)

Happy Birthday Handsome Curt!
