Just Thinking

My brother-in-law Morgan graduated from high school yesterday. I think it naturally brings back the memories of being young. Pretty sure I was the only one bawling, but ever since Asher was born I cry over just about anything and weddings are the worst. I don't even have to be related, or have any past relationships with the people getting married and I cry. I blog stock people and cry while reading people's trials and hardships. Haha, I even cry during Disney movies. It's pretty hilarious if you ask me.

Someday's I get really jealous of other people. I ask stupid questions like, "Why did I get married so young?" "Why did I have a baby so young?" "Why can't my skin be clear?" "Why don't I have more money?" "How would life be different?" I hate when I ask myself those questions. Because I'm so happy with my sweet life. I know it's the adversary trying to make me feel worthless. Someday's I just plain miss being young. I want to go shake all the little highschoolers heads and say, "You are only young once!!" Lol that's what I always tell my brother Morgan and it just goes right over his head. I also tell him, "Don't make any stupid decisions or you'll have to report to me!!" I hope that one sticks a little bit better. He is going off to Snow College and it just seems like yesterday I graduated from high school and went to Snow.

My heart goes out to all those who have and are struggling with trials they never dreamed of experiencing. I wish I could hug every single one of them. It makes me realize that I truly don't have any room to complain about anything. I really should be the one to be strong to help lift them up. I am so grateful for the amazing example they are to me. I guess the point of writing this post was to ramble and remind myself of how grateful and happy I truly am. I'm go grateful for the wonderful people God has put in my life. I know I frequently make stupid mistakes but I guess it makes life more interesting. May life be so happy and filled with tonz and tonz of happieness all over the place.

During Morgan's Graduation one of my best friends watched Asher. I was super glad I got a babysitter, it was 2 1/2 hours long and I got nice little kicks every couple minutes from the cute little kiddo's behind me. Stephanie Hyde is an amazing photographer and I would highly recommend her to anybody. She took these while babysitting and gave them to us as a surprise. I'm doing my practicum with her this summer. Gosh I love that girl, she is truly an amazing women. Luv ya steph!!

The End

    There's not a lot I would change but they still creep into my head and make me feel guilty for thinking them. Thanks for being so honest.
