FIREFLY

OKay. Here it goes...my very first blog. I'm kinda nervous and pretty excited at the same time. I'm sure this isn't going to be a literary masterpiece like Shakespeare or anything, but I hope it's interesting. I have enjoyed writing since i was a little girl. Being thrown into different times and places has always interested me, especially if it was someone else's life. I guess I'm just nosey. haha.
So I was inspired by my good friend Sarah D. She is a wonderful person. I have hardly met someone who was so genuine and caring. I may be rushing when I say this, but I hope we are liftetime friends.

Fireflies...how many of us when we were little had to stay outside just a "little longer" to catch the fireflies? Our mom or dad is getting onto us and we are so amazed by these little creatures that are lighting up the night sky that we can't imagine leaving them. Some of my favorite memories are of me and my sister, Renee, catching these fireflies; they were 'life-moments.' And basically that is what this blog is about: life-moments. Moments that take my breath away, moments I wish I could take away, and moments I never want to go away. Life is full of "moments." It's up to you and me to make the most of them, good or bad. God has blessed me with an amazing family. An amazing husband, Levi, who loves me exactly the way I am and gives me the strength and courage to face my fears and be the woman God made me to be. My daughter Azariah is the 'life' of our lives. She is so precious and beautiful. I couldn't imagine life without her curiosity, dramatic outbursts, and contagious laughter. While there are many things I wish I could've changed in my life, one thing is for sure, I wouldn't change the moments I have now for anything in the world.
