well blogging. its been awhile. i just have been thinking a lot lately. about how great life is. i feel like i should just write it down. i see these tv shows where when things seem to be great, there is always this twist, this horrible thing that happens to people when they get really happy.... i really feel like sometimes i sit around and wait for it to hit me. growing up, it was hard to find light most days. then i found brent, or should i say finally got brent to notice me, right when i felt like things couldn't really get much worse. and he just swept me up. i saw him for years, this gorgeous blue eyed, blonde haired boy, who just seemed like he was in his own little world, and then once i actually got to know him, i just knew. i knew he was the one for me. it sounds so ridiculous, but has kept me grounded. we had our tough times, learning to put each other first and letting things fall into place, but once we worked out the kinks, nothing could beat what we have. here i sit down in front of our third christmas tree, in our third city we have lived in since we have been married, and i know that this is where i am exactly supposed to be. with someone who accepts the facts that i cry when people hit squirrels, and takes injured ducks to wildlife shelters instead of going to the beach. i have someone who wants to see the world, and meet everyone... its just i know so many people who think we're crazy for being married and moving everywhere, and i think there crazy, for wasting their life being so normal. if there is one thing i do well, it's living with no regrets, going with my instincts and experiencing all i can. and thankfully, i do that with my best friend.
