This morning...

I realized that most often, my blogs are kind of down and whiny. Not this morning. I have a test in 2 hours and 20 minutes over things I know not. :) (I should know them. I just haven't chosen to learn them.. It is for my leadership & management class)

But I won't let this test get me down. I am completely blessed in life & I want to shout it from the rooftops today!

I am absolutely and completely in love on 2 accounts:

The first is with Jesus. I haven't been this close with him in years. I finally feel like I'm at the point that I've been searching for since I left it years ago. I have a relationship with Him & He just gets me.

The second is with the love on earth He has provided me: Seth. :) He makes me laugh when I think that is the last thing I want. He always knows what I need--be it to cry, laugh, mope, complain, etc... He can turn my day completely upside down (in a good way) from 1441-ish miles away. Today I am reminded of how lucky I am and how wonderful life will be in 102 days when I am his wife. Everyone tells me that this is just the honeymoon phase. They tell me that it will change and to wait until we see each other everyday. I say NO! We have been this way for most days of the past 4 years (our 4 year first date anniversary was last Friday, February 18th on Seth's 22nd birthday), what is 50 more when you've already done 4?!? I know it will be hard. I am in no way saying that our marriage will be all sunshine & giggles. But why can't that be the majority of it? We are given so little time to love on the people in our lives the way God wants us to.. Why not do it with all of our hearts everyday?

Today I am in a good mood (even if I'm about to go fail this Leadership & Management test). If you have ever had senioritis after 17 years of school, you must understand.

I hope you can be in a good mood today, too. Just think of all of the ways in your life that you are blessed. I've only mentioned two, but this list could literally go on and on until Jesus comes back.
