Letter Days...

The life of a letter day goes a little like this...

        Wake up, sit around and wait for the mail lady to drive by! Yes i stalk her, as soon as she pulls up i watch her like a fat kid stares at a cake, my hearts starts to beat fast when i see a white envelope that has potential of being a letter for me! i watch her move onto the next house... i creep down the steps, fling open the front door and RUN as fast as i can to the mail box, i say please Lord, please Lord, please Lord three times... just like that, and i open the mail box holding my breath.  I rummage through all the junk (stuff that isn't for me) till i find it! Once i do i run fast back inside, up the stairs, jump onto my bed and rip it open! Then i read the most amazing, sweetest words anyone could write to someone! I feel like I'm floating on air for the rest of the day!

And that my friends are my letter days! :)


I was given a Quote in my letter today that he says he has on his handbook... "Be the man she needs you to be, but not for her... For the Lord."

Best advice anyone could give!


Your words are sweetier than anything.

My Missionary

I never thought that i could feel this way.  I never thought it'd happen to me! But... It did!! And the best part is, He is my best friend!  Im so giddy and cant sit still!  I look forward to the days i get letters, and then on Mondays when i can email him!!  Mostly, for the day he comes home! 7/2012!!


Michael Richard DaRonch.

When i heard he was going away for 2 full years and i could only write him, i didnt know what to do! But in the last 10 months i have only grown closer to him (even though we are thousands of miles apart) and i am proud to say, that i love him dearly! :)

There is a PERFECT time for everything.

The last week has been a little rough. Emotions have been flying off the wall crazy and I felt I was getting deeper and deeper into the funk.  Sometimes we wonder "Lord, why do i have to go through rough times? Why cant everyday be easy and better than the last?" Well that's where i was, and when I started to pray before I went to sleep last night I heard this voice say "With out trials, you will not learn, become stronger or realize the true meaning of Faith." Although we are told that day in and day out, we still wonder why! Why me??  All morning i have been pondering on that voice i heard last night.  We wouldn't grow in our Faith if we had nothing to have faith for! We wouldn't learn if we didn't have hard times! We would really be weaker than you could imagine with out rough trials because we wouldn't have to learn to deal with our situations and keep going if we didn't have them!  Of course... we still wish we didn't have to go through them, and when they come around we still think "why me?" but that's because we are HUMAN.  The best part of learning and sticking it out is the reward of knowing, no matter what we are not alone because we have a BIG GOD, we are much stronger after, and our faith developes more and more each time.  The Lord always knows exactly what we need when we are dealing with our trials.  Today i received a letter from my Elder, and in that letter i was told countless of times, "you'll get through this, you'll be OK, be strong in the Lord he is your best friend." Then i received about 5 Cd's of the greatest christian songs ever!  That's exactly what i needed! Yes i give credit to my wonderful missionary, but mostly to the Lord, because he knew that's exactly what my heart needed to hear, and have to keep me positive and sticking it out! I needed them more today than i have in the last few months!


I'm so thankful for all the blessings in my life.

What A Hearts Desire's

When you've gone from one way to another, your entire outlook on things change along with the change in your self.  You begin to think about what it is you want, who you want to become and what it takes to achieve those things.  Sometimes it takes sacrifices and the other times it takes taking the blame and standing up for the wrong doing.  Facing your demons.  Most of all it takes growing up!  In the past 9 months every week i have changed in one way or another.  And each step i take takes me further into being the responsible, grown woman i have invisioned to be for my future.  Although i continually learn the way of that life every single second, minute, day of that process, im also learning that the only way to not go insane is to let all your troubles and worries be lifted into the Lord's hands, because He is the only one that can move mountains, and turn every bad situation into good!

Im thankful for the turn around in my life... I love it.
