<3

Blogger can be quite scary as everything is out in the open for the world to see, but maybe that's the hidden beauty of having an online blog.

I love....

*being able to spend time with my dad whether we're on a crazy hunt for the latest kung-fu movie on sale at Walmart or eating at our usual soondubu date place :)
*spending time with my cousins Joanne, Eunice, Cody, Oscar, and Squirtie...there's no holding back when we're together
*perusing through every aisle of Office Max and getting excited over the latest invention...Do you know that they have mouse pads with an attached coffee cup holder? :)
*laughing with my study buddy and our "serious" talks about someone's future wedding in Africa :)
*the smell of a fresh pack of Hi-lighters and studying in my quiet abode
*yarping and calling him father
*lying in the aisles of bookstores without a care in the world, being surrounded by a plethora of books, and reading until closing time
*hugs from Marine because she's mom :)
*spending one-on-one time with people
*my 23 1st graders and what they have to teach me each day
One of my 1st graders asked me how my twins are doing at home ??? When did I have twins?
Oh, they're precious and innocent imaginations!
*that my dream of writing a _______ published book is a bit closer to becoming a reality
*libraries that close super late and dusty books at the top of bookshelves screaming come look at me I'm old and full of something to teach you
*sharpened number 2 pencils and using them to bubble in scantron tests
*getting nervous before a test, but knowing that he's in control as he brings much peace in the nerve wrecking process
*coming home and having a like-minded sister who laughs and sleeps next to me :)
*Post-its for test reminders, study reminders, directions reminders, etc
*feeling helpless before him, but knowing that he's leading me each step of the way
*singing at the top of my lungs when no one's watching to the tune of Iris
*that he gave me a new life that is harder in every way, but rewarding knowing that eternity will be with him
