Girls night

               

to you...

Lately life has been..
life.
Emotional.
silly.
lovely.
confusing.
exciting.
frustrating.
And i find myself lately trying to understand what it is i feel....
(I think a lot of that emotion has to do with being a woman)
and some of it has to do with trying to understand who i am.
What i am dreaming to be,
what goals i have,
what i am working on now,
what kind of a wife, daughter,sister ,friend...etc i am,
do i love enough,
do i forgive fast,
Am i patient enough,
Am i thoughtful,
Am i understanding...?

I have all these thoughts running ....
and sometimes i get frustrated with getting frustrated,
and then i realize this is life,
it's ok,
this is real,
this is what I'm supposed to be learning.
Trying to be a better , more happy, more loving , more forgiving, more silly,
patient, gentle, centered ME.
And to love the journey in that.

loving you is so fun

Stumbled upon these old photos today and they put a smile on my already happy face:)

This man is my happiness,

My other half,
My snuggle buddy,

My life.

                                                              We love loving each other,

                                                             Making big dreams together,

                                                         Pushing each other to be our best,

                                                       and excepting each other at our worst.

                                                                         We are happy.

                                                             

A wonderful surprise...

 

One randomly awesome night , the husband called me into his office and asked me to close my eyes and hold out my hands.....

...handed me a paper 

and surprised me with an awesome anniversary present! 

A cruise to the bahamas :) 

Just he and I,

Alone,

Relaxing,

spending time together.

Couldn't ask for a more perfect surprise:)

I get this silly man all to myself!

Learning...

My thought for today....

sing to me..

These two , Sara Bareilles songs ,recently have (again) been my non stop listen to songs. I am so in love the lyrics in both songs for different reasons. (I bolded my favs. ) I love a good old' song that speaks to the soul. Music is my world.

Let the Rain

I wish I were pretty I wish I were brave If I owned this city Then I'd make it behave And if I were fearless Then I'd speak my truth And the world would hear this That's what I wish I'd do, yeah If my hands could hold them you'd see I'd take all these secrets in me And I'd move and mold them to be Something I'd set free I want to darken in the skies Open the floodgates up I want to change my mind I want to be enough I want the water in my eyes I want to cry until the end of time I want to let the rain come down Make a brand new ground Let the rain come down Let the rain come down Make a brand new ground Let the rain come down tonight I hold on to worry so tight It's safe in here right next to my heart Who now shouts at the top of her voice Let me go, let me out, this is not my choice And I always felt it before That the world was filled with much more Than the drowning soul I've learned to be I just need the rain to remind me I want to darken in the skies Open the floodgates up I want to change my mind I want to be enough I want the water in my eyes I want to cry until the end of time I want to let the rain come down Make a brand new ground Let the rain come down Let the rain come down Make a brand new ground Let the rain come down I want to let the rain come down Make a brand new ground Let the rain come down Let the rain come down Make a brand new ground Let the rain come down I want to let the rain come down Make a brand new ground Let the rain come down Let the rain come down Make a brand new ground Let the rain come down tonight

KIng of anything

Keep drinking coffee, stare me down across the table While I look outside So many things I’d say if only I were able But I just keep quiet and count the cars that pass by You’ve got opinions, man We’re all entitled to ‘em, but I never asked So let me thank you for your time, and try not to waste anymore of mine And get out of here fast I hate to break it to you babe, but I’m not drowning There’s no one here to save Who cares if you disagree? You are not me Who made you king of anything? So you dare tell me who to be? Who died and made you king of anything? You sound so innocent, all full of good intent Swear you know best But you expect me to jump up on board with you And ride off into your delusional sunset I’m not the one who’s lost with no direction But you’ll never see You’re so busy making maps with my name on them in all caps You got the talking down, just not the listening And who cares if you disagree? You are not me Who made you king of anything? So you dare tell me who to be? Who died and made you king of anything? All my life I’ve tried to make everybody happy While I just hurt and hide Waiting for someone to tell me it’s my turn to decide Who cares if you disagree? You are not me Who made you king of anything? So you dare tell me who to be? Who died and made you king of anything? Who cares if you disagree? You are not me Who made you king of anything? So you dare tell me who to be? Who died and made you king of anything? Let me hold your crown, babe.
