A heart full of blessed

Its been a rough few weeks around Cherry Land. I feel like I have been on an emotional rollercoaster, especially the last week.

When you're going through a rough time it is so easy to feel like you are alone and that no one cares, or knows what you are going through.

I feel like this past week especially I have been overwhelmed with love by people in my life, and even those who don't know me that well but know my family. I have been covered in prayers, and I appreciate it SO MUCH. I would have never made it through without the many many people who have been praying for me.

Its almost been overwhelming to see how much my family loves and cares about me. My poor parents were in Iowa visiting my bro and sil while some really bad things happened to me and pretty much ruined their vacation, but yet they loved me and took care of me from afar. I can't tell you how much it meant to me to get all of their encouraging emails telling me how much I was loved, not only by them but by God. My Mom has been a huge rock to me. She is always there to encourage me and lift me up in prayer and also to tell me to SNAP OUT OF IT and Focus on your blessings and think of all the good things in your life.

I was laying in bed last night praying and thinking of all my blessings and wondered how on earth I got so lucky to be born into this wonderful family who loves me no matter what and loves me even when I am un loveable. I am truly blessed SO MUCH.

I love you Mom, Dad, Grams, Kev and Liz!! <3

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

Blue Monday!

Today's Festive Blue Monday outfit! I wore my tried and true trouser jeans, a short sleeved beaded top I got on clearance at Macy's of all places for 6 bucks!! And my awesome new jeweled flats! Sooo comfy and cute! Since it was in the 60's today I was able to get away with this warmer weather outfit! Beading on the top, I love it! Shoes, so ugly they are cute!!

9/52

So I'm doing my best to get these weekly wrap up's done on Monday each week. Today has been a DOOZY. It's 9 pm and I am just now sitting down to check email and such. So if this post isn't the most well written, you'll understand once you read next week's wrap up about today!  In happier news we started off last week with my BIIIIRRRTTHHHDAAAYYYYY!!! And nothing says your Birthday like watching One Tree Hill and eating a piece of ice cream cake with lunch. Spoiler alert, I had a piece of Ice Cream cake every single day last week.  The chalkboard was updated, but sadly none of my pictures with said chalkboard looked decent.  I rocked my Be-You-Tiful shirt and a new necklace my Mom had given me.  And then I had a little photo session in the piano room with my balloons. Because, it was my birthday. and I was alone. So why not!  This is pretty much me in a nutshell... :)  Normally, I try to get work done before students arrive...
