Today I found myself thinking about the past........ I thought about living back at my mom and dad's house, doing homework everyday after school, getting ready to cheer at the games and early morning practices getting ready for the big competition! I thought about dating Josh and how much we have changed.........how much we have grown. I thought about all those nervous butterflies I used to get when he came to pick me up, when he first held my hand, when he first kissed me. I thought about all the morp dates, prom, and senior ball. I thought about graduation and how I thought for a moment my life was over! I thought about my wedding and how amazing it was and how wonderful I felt.
As I thought about all of these things, I couldn't help but smile.........laugh............and cry. Cry not because I want it back but because I got to live it! Cry becuase yes these are memories........but they are my very own memories. Smile because I get to share all of these crazy stories with my children and my grandchildren someday.
I think about my past not wanting to relive it.........but to remember it. I love where I am at in my life.......I love that I got to start my family young so I can have energy to play and watch my children grow. I love that I have somebody in my life that truly loves me, and wants to be with me for eternity!
I have changed.....I am not the girl that I once was, and I'm ok with that. I am a wife now! I am a mother now! And I love every bit of it!! I have so many more things to do.......that will one day..........turn into memories!
I found this box as I was cleaning today.....it was filled with tons of memories
from my old jewlery to how Josh asked me to prom on little slips of paper.
my picture box. :)
