Fear you wont fall...

Digging a hole and the walls are caving in
Behind me airs getting thin but I'm trying
I'm breathing in
Come find me
It hasn't felt like this before
It hasn't felt like home before you
And I know it's easy to say but it's harder to feel
This way
And I miss you more than I should
Than I thought I could
Can't get my mind off of you
I know you're scared that I'll soon be over it
That's part of it all
Part of the beauty of falling in love with you is the fear you won't fall
It hasn't felt like this before
It hasn't felt like home before you
And I know it's easy to say but it's harder to feel
This way
And I miss you more than I should than I thought I could
Can't get my mind off of you
And I hate the phone
But I wish you'd call
Thought being alone
Was better than this
And I know it's easy to say but it's harder to feel this way
And I miss you more than I should
Than I thought I could
Can't get my mind off of you
And I know it's easy to say but it's harder to feel
This way
And I miss you more than I should
Than I thought I could
Can't get my mind off of you...

Today I had such a fun time playing with my kids outside. They crack me up like none other! I think it's especially funny that they hate wearing shoes. I put shoes on them before we go outside and they immediately take them off the minute we get outside. It cracks me up. They come home with the dirtiest feet, but they have a blast running up and down the sidewalks on our street. I love it! So today I am thankful for my crazy kids and they way they can crack me up. My kids immediately know that it's 'wash feet' time when they get in the house!

Thankful 10/19

I've been so down in the dumps lately with Zac being gone... I didn't think I would be this bummed out, but I am ;(. It's been hard to find things to be grateful for when you are sad, but today I thought of something I am grateful for... babysitters!

I had to work from home this morning and it was going to be a pretty long stint, so I asked a girl in our ward to babysit for us. She is truly amazing. She always has a smile on her face, she seems to really care about my kids, she always has something to bring to share with the kids and she actually interacts and plays with them. I am really happy we have found such a great sitter in her. She seems to enjoy babysitting too. I got to work for a couple hours and then because I'm not feeling so hot right now (I'm a little sick) I took a little snooze while we was here. So today, I am totally thankful for Heather and her babysitting abilites. It helped me a ton and I feel much better now. =)

Distractions

I've been pretty down in the dumps the last couple days. With Zac being gone, going through old stuff, preparing to possibly move... I dont know, I've just been bummin around. It was nice when a friend of mine asked me to take pictures of her son for his 2nd birthday. =) It was so much fun chasing around a toddler for an hour (that wasn't my toddler). He is such a gorgeous little kid. =) So today, I am grateful for distractions. It was nice to be distracted from the pressures and strain of life. It's fun to get down on kid's level to see what they see. Thank you for distractions!

Thankful Day 3

Ok so I am a little bad at posting everyday... but I guess that's what happens when you have two kids under 4. Anyhoo, I will be better at this, promise!

Today I thought I would dedicate my thankful post to my church. Although I am not as active as I could be in church, I am very grateful for church in my life. Church has been a pretty big part of my life since I turned 16. I joined the church in December of 1999. Since then, I have gone through some pretty big struggles and some really happy times. The struggles have been made easier for me through my faith and my friends in church. The church has kept me grounded and I always know that even if life throws me some pretty crappy stuff, that I will always find love and acceptance through the gospel. I am grateful for it in my life and I am happy that my kids are happy when they are at church.

Thankful Day 2

Today I would like to dedicate my thankful post to my reef sandals. I am in serious LOVE with these things! My first pair was actually a pair I stole from my boyfriend when I was 19. He had a shoe size a couple sizes bigger than me and one day I screwed around with him and wore them, you couldn't tell with my jeans on (this is so ghetto I KNOW!), but I ended up wearing them for the day. I LOVED them. So comfy. I was an old navy flip flop girl at the time and that was it for me... I am not a reef girl. I have brown, blue, 2 pairs of black, white... I LOVE them. Thank you to whomever founded the reef brand. I love you.

Thankful Day 1

Today I am thankful for crafts... I love creating, crafting and making things. There are so many awesome products out there and to figure out how to make them and then make it myself is so much fun! I am reading an awesome craft blog and I am learning to make all kind of cool things. Crafting makes me happy. I never used to be a crafty person at all. It actually used to be a burden to me to have to make anything.... but I am glad I am learning. I just need to get out that sewing machine of mine, remember how to use it, and get to work!

Thankfulness...

My friend Katie is awesome! She has all kinds of cool ideas all the time about different things. I always copy her... hopefully that doesn't make her feel weird, only honored that I think she's so awesome! lol.

She started a personal blog and recently started posting everyday what she is thankful for. So I am going to do it too! =)
