Mom.


Well, I’m sitting on my couch eating “buttery salt and cracked pepper” popcorn and watching Cast Away (yeah I will be here for awhile). My fam just left after a delicious lunch at Winston’s Grille and then we took my Mom to the mall so she could pick out some perfume for Mother’s Day (her gift from me). She chose “Blossom” by Calvin Klein-smells wonderful, my fav was “Bouquet” by Vera Wang, but I will wait until I have an extra $90 to spend on that, I’m not really big on perfume, I prefer more natural scents like coconut. I am so happy to just be able to sit here and watch TV w/out feeling guilty (like thinking I need to be studying or something). No school to worry about-nothing…wonderful.

I asked God to bring the sunshine out today for my Mom-He did, I might go for a walk in a little while. I have a busy couple weeks ahead of me-fun things to look forward to-a cookout w/the people who are going to Trinidad this July (that includes me!), a volunteer appreciation dinner-I might wear my old prom dress :o)-it’s like a “formal” theme, I am dragging a friend w/me and forcing her to wear hers too, and then the next week I start my program (occupational therapy) in school and I get to go to a Christian conference w/one of several awesome people in my life-I’m stoked.

I am excited about life, excited about what God has in store for me and excited to get one step closer to whatever that is, each and every day. There are a few issues w/in my family that need some prayer and I ask all who read this just to lift our family to God and allow Him to work those things out. Thank you! I hope all the mother’s out there had a fabulous mother’s day!

And Happy Mother's Day to YOU Mom-thank you for teaching me about Jesus (the greatest gift you could ever have given me) I love you.
