We may not have it all together, but together we have it all


So this is just going to be a pretty quick post and I can promise nothing near perfect quality. I just was sitting there doing my sit-ups (don't worry I can only do like ten, but we're working on it) and I realized how extremely blessed I was. I am going to talk about one particular area, but believe me when I say that I have many more.

MY FAMILY!

They are so wonderful!

You know how you look at those people and it seems like they "have it all": the fancy car and clothes, the perfect job, they are so beautiful, have that perfect boyfriend/girlfriend (I'm lucky to get a date:)) they have it all right? Yeah . . . then you realize everything isn't as perfect as you thought, especially when it comes to their family. (I am not saying it is like this in every one of these situations, this is just simply an example) However, I was sitting there about ready to pass out from crunching my stomach for about ten seconds and realized I may not have the best of a lot of things, but I have an absolutely amazing family. There are no acts here. They really are what they seem, which is wonderful! Now I never said they were perfect, I'm in it, otherwise they would be pretty much there. I can always count on my family. Each one of us has our separate and individual challenges, but when you look at my family as a unit, I'm sorry if this sounds cocky, but as a family we have got it together! And you might say 'oh honey, that will change with-laws'. Um.... k, HAVE YOU MET MINE! So far we have some freaking awesome additions. I love them and they only add to the almost perfection, they definitely aid in bringing us closer. Sorry if this is sounding like I am bragging it's just that I am so very blessed to be a part of such an unbelievable family. I love them with all my little heart. I wanted to write about something that makes me happy and they make me oh so very happy. I really am a blessed child.

Yeah I know, my blog title kinda stinks.

I broke down, I gave in, I had to, everyone else was doing it. I have a blog! Although this did seem like the popular thing to do I had a hard time doing it. I was scared spitless. I guess I thought blogging was for people who are amazing writers or they just have something very profound to say. You may think that I will go on to say that I realized blogging is for everyone, and how I realized I had to need to fear. I may share some amazing and inspiring story that will change the  lives of twenty year olds everywhere, pretty soon the whole world will be blogging all because of me. But truth is the only reason why I'm blogging right now is so that I can stay caught up with Spence and Melynn (my brother and sister-in-law) because for some crazy reason they decided to go private. So please excuse my horrible grammar and lame stories, and if you are still scared to blog, don't do it!! Because right now I just want to crawl under a rock until everyone discovers how lame my blog is and then, when the coast is clear, I'll blog like there is no tomorrow.
