Things that make me squeal with delight

These simple truths…

I must confess a few things.

A few things that make me happy.

A few things that make me sad.

A few things that make me mad.

A few things that might make YOU mad.

A few things that might make you laugh.

I love seeing the look on my nieces and nephews faces when I walk

through the door.

I love that they know without a doubt how much I love and adore them;

yet they know I mean business and the rules still apply.

I love that I have a sister who wants happiness and love for me, so

much so that she will never hold the truth back from me even when I do

not want to hear it.

I love that I have a brother who truly is a strong and wonderful man;

to me, to my sister, to my mom, to his wife, to his sons and to God.

I love my puppies, even though they drive me INSANE sometimes.

I love love love to eat and to cook and to watch others delight in the

things I have prepared.

My heart breaks when I find out someone has cancer.

My heart breaks when I think of the people in my life who do not know Jesus.

My heart breaks that my life now is not where I imagined it to be.

My heart breaks that people I thought would be my friends forever are no longer.

I get so angry when I hear of ANYONE mistreating my friends and family.

I get so angry when I learn of people who judge others.

I get so angry when I think of the young men and women who have lost

their lives in this war, yet so many are ungrateful for their

sacrifices.

I laugh so hard at my dad sometimes.

I laugh even harder at my best friend Sarah ALL THE TIME.

I laugh even more at myself for being so ridiculous.

I laugh uncontrollably when I watch Will Ferrell.

I laugh so very very hard when Sarah tells me I have a loose bladder.

And most of all I am so happy that I have this space to share my thoughts and that some of you actually care enough to pay attention!
