SUMMER SO FAR

I have taken the summer "off" for a few reasons. Mainly because I had a very stressful Spring semester in school and with this new baby coming , I felt extra pressure to finish as much as I could and then decided that it's bogus to think like that. There is no reason whatsoever that I need to rush through school. Some days I miss structure and schedule and then I have to tell myself that I am blessed with this season in life. I get to have this time with Jada while she is still an only child and take a breather to do things we enjoy. I will come out of this refreshed with a new perspective and having a better understanding of what Meggan's next move is. Until then...

5 Years Post HS Graduation.


After the graduation ceremony was over I think I kind of stood around alone and looked around at everything. I believe I was either numb or severely underwhelmed. My best friend and I didn't even get a single picture together. I have like 9 signatures in my yearbook, probably all from Drama Club :). I hold all those teen movies in the 90s responsible for all of my High School disappointments!
Perhaps we're told that those are the greatest years of our lives because our responsibilities are limited to just ourselves for the most part. I will reevaluate the "best years" once life has truly past. None of us know. I can appreciate everything about those times but feel that these current times are better simultaneously. 

5 Years later
I am married
I am a mama of 1 and another soon to come
I consider God's will for my life and not just my own
I am more secure
I am in the Army Reserves
I live in Alabama....wow :P
I don't go to the beach nearly enough
I am still wearing clothes from High School
I keep in touch with the tiniest handful of old friends
I can cook!
I still love to make things pretty.
