Who I am!

So, I got "tagged" by a friend who is a seasoned blogger, but I have no idea what it means... the blog that she'd written was a response to the following "I" statements, so I figured I would just respond to them myself. So here goes a little reflection and insight into me.



I am thankful for the life God has given me.

I want to be more self-disciplined in my life right now.

I have a long day ahead of me because Andy won't be home until about 10 pm.

I wish that I were lying on a sunny beach somewhere today with my family.

I hate injustice.

I miss my family... especially my mom and grandma who just left.

I fear something happening to my husband and being left alone.

I feel tired today because I stayed up reading too late.

I hear G crying because E is annoying her by trying to laso her with a hula hoop (oh my!)

I smell very keenly which is great for good scents, but horrible for nasty ones.

I crave way too much soda and caffeine, but try not to give into the craving all the time.

I search for unique and interesting gifts on the internet or in stores.

I wonder sometimes if I am being the best mom and wife that I am able to be.

I regret arguing with Andy last night, but mostly holding onto my anger today.

I love my Lord, my husband, my children, and my life!

I ache on my whole left side- shoulder, elbow, leg, knee... since G was born.

I care about others' struggles but I don't always tell them so or do something to help.

I always go to bed too late and wake up tired in the mornings.

I am not the housekeeper that I would like to be.

I believe that I have a Savior who adores me and has a perfect plan for me.

I sing from my heart and wish that in reality my voice sounded as great as it does in my mind.

I dance in my heart and mind when I hear a song I love... even if I can't really dance at that time

I cry when I see or hear of children suffering or being abused/neglected.

I don't always do the "good" things that I think of doing for other people.

I fight far too often using my words as a sword, but then I always regret it.

I write a lot and I enjoy writing, especially the lessons I've learned in life.

I never want to repeat mistakes that I've made in the past or those that I've seen others make.

I listen less than I could and talk more than I should.

I need to connect with my husband everyday, to know that we are in this thing totally together.
I am happy when I'm laughing with my kids and husband.
