WOW how time flies

The spring semester is under way and the first two weeks of school are complete... I cannot believe how fast time flies! I am loving my child development classes and having a blast learning about everything I could have imagined about kids. My schedule is a little crazy with 18 hours... but I just keep reminding myself... you CAN DO THIS!!! This semester I am going to be working with kids at a day school and that is going to be so much fun seeing all of their different personalities and learning how to better work with kids so that when I become a Child Life Specialist I will be better equipped. I love loving on kids, so this semester is going to be an absolute blessing. All in all, my child development classes are equipping me to be a better mom in the long run.
WOW, how wedding planning has gotten under way and has become crazy!! There are only 4 1/2 months until the wedding! I can't believe this day would ever come. I am getting nervous, excited, and a little stressed. I am excited for all the fun showers and parties to start. :) It is going to be a blast and a time in my life that I will cherish for forever!
This semester I am working towards giving every worry to God. This is way harder than I ever thought it would be. For people who know me, I am definitely a worrier and I like making people happy and when everything is not going right I get all stressed out. So this semester I am really working hard at giving everything to God and letting him use me and my worry in positive ways. I look forward to seeing how God is going to use me with my friends and family.
Life is such an amazing journey and I can not wait to see what He has in store for my life.
I am also trying to become better prepared for how to be a good wife... it makes me nervous... I am going to live with a boy! So weird and very different from living with all girls, but it is going to be a beautiful journey. My prayer has been that I put my worries aside and allow God to be in control of every aspect of my marriage. I am excited to see what I continue to learn from Reagan and his job as a youth pastor and how I can better support him through all the ups and downs of life. I am excited to see how we will learn to even better compliment each other once we are married and work together to achieve goals that we both have passions for. I am so excited to be spending the rest of my life with the man of my dreams. I look forward to what God will give to us through perseverence, faith, and the lessons we will learn together that will make us that much stronger in our relationship and our faith in Him.

"Cherish the people you love and the moments you have in your life, because in the blink of an eye they could all be gone."
