Friends

I love catching up with old friends. One of my favorite things is having hour long conversations talking about anything and everything. But as much as it makes me happy, it also makes me sad. Sad that I am missing out on their lives and them mine. Sad that we let so much time pass before talking again and actually being there for one another. I miss my friends who became like family and were there with out judgement and who cared. The ones I grew up with and have known since I was 10 years old. The ones who became my sisters. I am thankful for them and the impact they have had on my life. I'm going to work on being better at keeping in touch and not so wrapped up in my own life.

my attempts at blogging

So for the last year I have attempted to blog but never really succeeded. I see all these other blog post and get really cool ideas for things to do with Jaxon, or crafty things and think about how I want to blog, but I don't really have anything to write about or teach anything. Then I think who would actually read it. But I'm going to attempt it. And if no one reads it then oh well. It will be for me and a way to express what is going on in my life.

"Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer." Romans 12:12

Today marks the ten year anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the world trade center. Surprisingly I had forgotten a lot of details & sat frozen & intrigued in front of the tv. I will never forget where I was when it actually happened. I was a sophmore & at school in the hall when a girl started screaming so I went to the office. We had a field trip that day & things just weren't the same but we continuously prayed through out the day. It was a great reminder of why mt husband had to leave for a year because of his job. And to continue to work on making sure this never happens again. Never forgotten.always remembered.

There's no place like home. <3

*Life is about change. Sometimes its beautiful, sometimes its painful. Most of the time it's both.

new years resolutions

I am the worst at New Year resolutions. I get excited for about a week, and then I forget about it or procrasticnate and never finish it. This year I decided I wanted to do something fun and creative. I am going to be taking one picture every day. That way at the end of the year I can look back on how I spent my year. It has already sparked some challenge in that I don't want the same picture over and over and its making me be creative. This is already a fun project & I hope it continues that way.
