As I am sure most of you have gotten from my previous posts that I am an expert at stressing out. Well, I think I have finally come to the conclusion that there is no point. These past few months have been full of twists, turns, decision after decision, uncertainty and sleepless nights. Yet, I don't think I ever sat and just realized how blessed we are. I cannot even count all the things that have put me in a whirlwind the past few months, but when I sit down and try to iron it all out, we are pretty lucky people. I have an amazing husband who is willing to do whatever it takes to support his family and has the biggest heart in the world. He loves Jesus and that makes him the best support system that I have. I have an amazing family, who has been through many trials, but always shows up with smiles and optimism. We have been blessed with amazing opportunities to go to college, earn our degrees, meet amazing best friends, live in great places, have money to live and a roof over our heads. Phillip has a great job that he loves and pushes him to improve everyday. Our health is in tip top shape (minus the fact that we dont exercise everyday...but who's counting that, haha) and most of all we have been blessed with a baby boy that we will soon get to meet. Why stress about all the uncertainties when I should be thankful everyday for what I have been given and what is yet to happen.
Every night when we pray together, there is so much that we are grateful for and so much we have to look forward to. At the end of this week, we will be moving back to Oklahoma. We could not be more excited and despite all our uncertainties about if it was the right choice, we both finally have a sense of pure peace about it. We still have not found anyone to take over our lease in Arizona yet, and we still are not sure if a home in OKC will work out for us or not, but regardless, we cant wait. There is a plan out there for us, and we know everything will work out as it is supposed to.
We have loved this little place in Arizona. We met great friends who we will be close with always and have made some interesting and amazing memories here. It was good while it lasted and now we are moving on to what is yet to come.
Ciao Friends.
