For the girls

Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot
Who calls you back even though you just hung up on him
Who thinks you are perfect even though he knows the the worst thing about you
Who will stay awake just to watch you sleep
Wait for the guy who kisses your forehead
Who wants to show you off to the world even when you are in a t-shirt and sweats
Who holds your hand in front of his friends
Who thinks you're just as pretty without makeup
One who is constantly reminding you of how beautiful you are and that he loves you
Of how lucky he is to have you
The one who turns to his friends and says
"That's her"

Lemonade!!

So I finally have my lemonade!!

Took a while to get it though. My life this past week has been one of my favorite weeks. Just being able to hang out with family and friends has been the greatest. I don't know what I would do without any of them in my life. All of the "lemons" and "ingredients" finally came together for me to make my "lemondae"!! :)

There is a giveaway going on over at Courtney's blog to celebrate the blog's one year anniversary!

Ingredients

So if any of you read my last post you saw that I have been getting a lot of "lemons" in my life and that I was looking for the "ingredients" to make "lemonade".

Well, I have found some of my "ingredients"!! It was hard finding but some of the "ingredients" have made it into my life. It takes a while for me to see them though.

I have my wonderful daughter who I wouldn't give up for anything. She is my world and sticks by me no matter what.

I have to thank all of my friends who have been praying for me through these "lemon" parts of my life. Thank you all for sticking by me!

I have started going back to church. It has taken a while but I can tell that I am a happier person with going to church. I enjoy getting my faith back and being immersed with worship. Along with church, I am going to a college youth group and have made some new friends. I am happy that I have made some new friends and grateful that they like me for me.

So there are my "ingredients", or at least some of them. I think that I may need some more ingredients before I can have my "lemonade" but I know that the rest will just keep coming my way. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel where I will finally be able to have my "lemonade"!!!

When life gives you lemons...

You would normally make lemonade right?? I am still trying to find the "ingredients" to make that lemonade. Right now I am still searching for all of the correct "ingredients".

I feel like life is giving me a lot of lemons lately. Of course if I looked really hard I would probably have my lemonade already but sometimes it is hard to remember those good times.

I have been blessed to meet such wonderful people this past week and who are Christians. I am enjoying meeting new people and am happy that I have started to come out of my shy-shell a bit. It is getting easier but it's still a work in progress.

So I need to keep saying to myself: Don't be such a pessimist and start to be optimistic. Life would be much better if I were to see it as having lemonade instead of just getting lemons.
