Sometimes my friends are so beautifully wonderful

So giving and kind and encouraging 

That I can't do anything, but cry in gratitude

For Kristin

You are not alone in this....

A Sigh Of Relief.

Most of the time, I make a mess of things

I wish I had handled things differently, or said the right thing. 

But I seldom do.

Usually behind me I leave a mess I don't know how to clean up.

I do things without thinking

I hurt people

I hurt myself

But in the midst of all that.

He loves me.

He cherishes me.

He forgives me. 

He redeems me. 

And for that I am speechless

At the end of the day I know I can sigh and collapse into his big arms. 

There is relief in knowing you can't do it. That you can't do enough. 

He can. 

He will. 

He is. 

Men

Can I also tell you that I am ALL about this men's hair trend. ALL ABOUT IT

Where the wind comes sweeping down the plains.

Tomorrow I am hopping on a plane and heading "home" and I say "home" because my parents just moved to a new city about and 1 and a half from our old home and this will be the first time I go to this new place. But they say home is where the heart is right? So I guess wherever my family is, that's home.

Anyway I am SO excited. Like woah. I get to see my parents, my grandparents, my brother, my sister in law, my nieces, my favorites Lisa, Michael, Cory, Reeves, and Taylor and my dog. Oh goodness it is going to be a week full of 5 minute hugs and laughter.

Things is Nashville are great but a little time away is going to be oh so good for my soul.

i, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naive or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman.
