Spring Forward!

The nice thing about living in Hawaii (among many things) is that we do not recognize daylights savings. so i don't ever have to lose sleep! haha with having to get up for that job i have of course :) however i do have my alarm set for 7:30 everyday, but without fail (except when i was sick) i somehow wake up at 6:43, don't know how that happens but it does. not that i'm complaining, i like getting up early... make the day feel longer. now being the wife of a Deployed Marine, you would think i would want the shortest possible days... however, i like long days (except when i am totally DONE with a day and it won't seem to end.

I started my first ever calling at church today, in the nursery... yup starting at the bottom :) plan on workin my way up :) for the most part though, all the kids are so cute and GOOD! These parents are doing a good job. and i hope that they know that.

towards the end of nursery, 3 of us were talking about kids standing up for their beliefs at church and such. how their kids will tell their friends when words and phrases are offensive, and how it really offends them to take the lord's name in vain (with the whole OMG phrase) i mean they are impressive the way they stand up to their friends. i'm such a people pleaser i wouldn't be able to do that. i should be better about that. challenge to myself there:)

but seriously, i need to be more like those brave high schoolers and middle schooler's who surround themselves with things that will uplift them, and better them.

I am so grateful for the Man that i have standing next to my side! (of course not literally as he is still deployed) he pushes me to be a better woman every single day, and thats the only way to do it! Riley was able to call and make sure i was not at the bottom of the ocean. we didn't get to talk for very long at all. but we had a very brief conversation that i've been thinking about since... i really just love him so much, and i love when he brings up hopes/dreams/goals... he gets so passionate and he's such a visionary, he can just imagine EVERYTHING. so i absolutely love to hear him paint me pictures of how things will be :)

i definitely married the perfect guy for me :) i'm really fond of him.
