something beautiful

So much for the blog every breath of my life! Its been too busy for my own good. Actually, thats not true because its been very good!! The past week has consisted of: a talk that was really hard to have but was for the good, a beautiful day spent in Indiana with the Laughlin's, family birthday celebrations, my sister asking me if I was wearing Spankx because I've lost so much weight- but I WASNT! That felt really good! Confirmation and affirmation from so many friends and family in my life about something so important to me- which is something that as much as sometimes I don't like to hear, I am glad I hear because they see things clearer than I do, most of the time. A 4 day week with my kiddos- spent with emotional breakdowns which always ended in cuddling and me re-assuring him that "everything was ok" and that "I know". Soccer camp. Anisha saying in the same sentence, "Wow, Laura so many people are taking pictures of the rain (lightning-she really believes that) do you know God?" "Yep" "Do you pray to him everyday?" "Yep." "Do you know where he lives?" "He's all around us." "Did you know he lives in India?" "Yep." After all, people were taking pictures of the rain.

A drama-interrupted class. Dinner with Chrissy. And finally up until tonight- a movie night with Natalie which was perfect for the end of the week! I am so thankful for that girl- I tell you what, I don't know where I'd be without her friendship, humor, and ability to understand when I don't have my crap together. We watched When a Man Loves a Woman for class. I had never seen the movie before but it broke my heart for the reality that it is and is becoming increasingly worse. Hopefully I don't pour too much of my emotions into the response paper! I only have 3-4 pages to do it in! And while were on the topic of emotions, I think that feelings are so beautiful- no matter what they are. And the human body. But that's another post for another day after I pray through my objectifying and lust issues. I am very excited for what this vacation week will bring; lunch with c and c tomorrow followed by some great Indian cuisine and a movie with P, K, and A. Saturday is a 12-6 Cory day then helping Paige out with a babysitting gig followed by maybe hanging out with a friend. Sunday, church and family lunch then studying alllll day for an exam and writing papers til I have no more words to say. Monday is a big day- Doctor Appointments Day 2010. I've been nervous about that for a while. I'll be glad when everythings said and done. Then finally, headin back to Canton on Monday night for an all day study sessh on Tuesday. Exam 3 then one week of classes left!! Woohoo!! We almost made it!!
Enjoy your moments.
