I've been doing nothing but changing!
The last several years have been insane...I graduated college at 32, sold my house, quit my jobs, moved back home to start a career, met a man, got married, moved to his town, found a house, moved again, found a new job, left all my friends....
I'm 35. And I've made a bunch of mistakes in life. (And I mean a lot of mistakes.) I always had to do things the hard way or my way, but I'm finally becoming the person I want to be, I just have some more construction to undergo. The hardest lesson to learn was that I wasn't in charge, God is and was, and I had to turn myself over to Him for things to start looking up.
I just got married in February! And amazingly, it is for the first time. I think that marriage is sacred and that even though the world around us doesn't seem to think so, I think marriage is for life. I waited to get married until God placed me with the man he had in store for me. I love my husband dearly and I think that God had everything to do with choosing him for me.
The fun part is blending our families! Boy, what a challenge! My husband was previously married and has 2 boys, 16 and 9, Tyler and Joseph. And I have a daughter, Daysia, 11. And some days are wonderful and pure bliss and joy. Then there are days that I swear I've been transported to the Twilight Zone. But we're going to make it, faith and prayer are powerful tools.
This is my new wonderful family minus Tyler. He's a teenager and still a work in progress. But prayer and perseverance are powerful weapons. I have faith we'll need a new family photo one day soon.
