it's a phone call....

It's a phone call, it's a conversation traveling thousands of miles connecting two old friends as if they were a block away. It's a kiss from someone special to start your day. It's about pictures of your past and the places you have been. It's about a sister talking about sheep and how to relate them to your life. It's about moms who care too much and about being thankful for moms who care too much. It's about having long hair to pull back in the summertime. It's about cookouts with friends. It's about friends who are real. It's about forgiveness and it's about moving on. It's about learning new things and riding roller coasters. It's about finding out who you truly are and what you love. It's your favorite pair of flip-flops, it's about a guy and a girl meeting for the first time. It's about change, it's about summer, fall, winter and spring. It's about friends but mostly about the love you choose to share.
It's a page turning in your favorite book, its about the smile on your nieces faces every time you see them, it's about the love and beauty of nature. It's about wondering about the future, it's about knowing what you believe and believing in what you love. It's about risk. It's about friendship, it's about death and dying, heaven and hell, and you and me. It's about traditions passed down from generation to generation. It's about realizing your potential. It's about not being in control, knowing when to speak and knowing when words will never be enough. It's about changing your perspective. It's about loving your mom and dad and knowing that no other human beings will protect or defend you like your family will. It's about angels and finding your place. It's about making peace with you past, your present and your future.


***so I wrote this about my life a couple of years ago, when i first met the love of my life. It's true, the part about "people change you". Not in a way that most people think. There is so much to life I cannot imagine one lifetime being enough to truly live it out. But alas, that is what we are given.

A couple updates: House to be completed the middle of December. How will I ever pack everything???? or unpack everything??? Pregnant? YES YES YES! No pictures yet, but another post on it, stay tuned. Rowen walking. AHAHAHA....the mama is going crazy with this one.

All in all, we are well.
