My Birthday


My 34th Birthday was a good one this year, and with the birthday here it gave me some time to reflect where I am in my life and where I want to go.  This last year has been an incredible one for me.  I have never felt more comfortable in my own skin.  I have never felt more confident in my decisions.  I think a lot of that comes with age but also with me trying to shut the world out in the last year and do what I know I need to do or what the spirit is prompting me to do.  I pray constantly for help with my children.  I pray that I am doing the things that I need to do.  I pray that I am teaching them the things I need to teach them and that I take every opportunity I can to show them how much they mean to me.  This last year I have tried to be more present and do what is best for my children and not fall in to the trap of what everyone else says I should do for them and it has been awesome!  I feel so less stressed then ever before and more comfortable even confident in my decisions to go against the grain in my parenting style.  This has allowed me to be truer to myself and my family and this is where I have found my freedom. 
34 finds me very happy and satisfied with my life.  I feel so blessed and some times I am just waiting for every thing to crumble.  I know that sounds horrible so I have decided that every one has their own trials but during this time I am just going to enjoy this season because I don't know what lies ahead.  I do know that I have a wonderful husband, children, family and testimony that I feel so lucky to have and for that I am very blessed.
