A New Day!

I have been MIA this week, but it hasn’t been for naught! Last weekend my sisters and I went to the Portland Women of Faith conference, which was a BLAST, as always!! I also had a life-changing Ah-Ha moment for myself during that weekend and it has caused me to! I have had many of these in my life, but this one has really rocked my world.

I spent the early years of my life trying to be what I thought everyone expected of me, and in all honesty, I have also spent the latter years of my life doing the exact same thing.

It’s impossible to try and be something you’re not.

I’m not wild.

Matter-of-fact, I am a little bit of a nerd.

I like to think I am funny, but silly is really more like it.

I tend to be a homebody.

I thoroughly enjoy a good cleaning day, I find real satisfaction in it’s completion.

I dream about being a mama. It is what I know I was put on earth to do.

I also know that I am destined to be wealthy. Not in a ‘MWA-HA-HA-HAAA I’m gonna take over the world’ kind of way, but in a ‘Now that I true freedom, how can I help the world?’ kind of way.

I like all things fancy/sparkly/girly.

I could live in my comfy jeans, a tee, and darling ‘little’ (size 11) ballet flats.

I like the juxtaposition of comfy, cozy, glamor.

I really love following fashion, but being a plus-sized woman it is not always easy to implement what I know to be beautiful, so I dabble in interior decorating.

I come alive when it is sunny.

I am Team Edward ALL THE WAY!

I clean like a crazy person before I leave for vacation so that I can come home to a perfect house.

I organize like a crazy person.

I don’t know how to be anyone else.

God made me uniquely Christina.

I worked really hard this last year.

My focus was me, and I honestly had almost given up on myself.

This weekend taught me that: First and foremost, God has not left me, nor will He ever, and secondly I was reminded that God has given me unique talents,  He gave them to me on purpose, so GO PUT THEM TO USE!!!

I am not athletic.

I love to spend the afternoon lost in a good book. (SHOCKER, I know!!)

And it turns out that just being Christina is turning out to be pretty good.

Have a FABULOUS evening! 😉
