Who Am I?

SO although most of you have probably done this once or twice- I have never....
Who AM I???

I am....a mommy, a wife, a sister, nearing 30!! (although I refuse to admit it out loud)
I want....ha! too much-but currently I just want a chaos free day
I have...2 happy, healthy kids, a great husband, and a thriving business
I wish....for peace---I'm an over thinker, over planner, extreme worrier and would love to be able to "let go"
I hate....TRAFFIC! I have terrible road rage issues!
I fear....the unknown and unplanned (drives Rob crazy)
I hear...."The House that Built Me" by Miranda Lambert on the radio
I search....the Internet for great ways to decorate my house-it's a compulsion...I can't stop
I wonder...what my children will grow up to be. Will they be good people, hard workers? I sure hope so!
I regret...that candy bar I ate yesterday!! Why do I do that???
I love...my little family- I couldn't have imagined it better
I ache...for a closer relationship with my parents...it's not gonna happen-so I will get over it
I always...wear makeup! Trust me-it's better for everyone that way!!
I usually...forget things if I don't write them down.  I have a horrible memory!
I am not...a cook-well lets face it...I am a horrible cook!!
I dance...all of the time! Neely and I love to turn the music up and dance around the house!
I sing...terribly!!! But love to anyways
I sometimes...forget how blessed I am and need to stop complaining
I cry...way too much.  I can't help it-I'm an emotional person
I am not always...confident, in fact-very seldom do I have an abundance of it..wish I was--oh-maybe I should add that on the "i wish..."
I lose...patience-I think every mom does
I am confused...every time I pick up a tape measure--it's actually harder than I thought it would be
I need...a VACATION!!!!
I should...relax--it's in God's hands, right?!


Who are you???

Thankful Thursday

After an exhausting week that still isn't over...it's nice to step back and take time think about how blessed I am and what I ahve to be thankful for.

Today I am thankful for:


  • A thriving business with more work than we can handle.  Even though we are tired, stressed, and seldom get to sit down as a family it is nice to know that our hard work is paying off.
  • A husband that never gives up, keeps at it no matter how long it takes...he is relentless and I am so proud of the work he has been doing to provide for us and our future.
  • 2 kids that make me smile EVERY day!!! They may make me pull out my hair or turn it gray (which ever happens first), stress me out, or drive me crazy....but I wouldn't have it any other way!!!!
  • my new neighbor and her family....she has been a light to my life and had great words of advice lately.  Her kiddos are amazing and I already love them dearly!! I don't what I did before without them living near us!
There is much more but like I said, it has been a crazy week and it isn't slowing down anytime soon....OH YEAH- and Happy Fathers Day to all of those dad's out there! I know Rob will be relaxing and taking it easy Sunday--as he deserves!
