the breezy ocean air

What an amazing week this has been. I work for one of the best families I have ever met and not just because they treat me well but because they live honorable lives. I have had the opportunity to spend a week with them in Los Cabos as a nanny, and it has been more than wonderful. They are amazing parents, and cute little girls. Mom is full of wisdom and grace, Dad is full of wisdom and compassion, an example to live up to really.

While I have been down in this amazing place I have had some time to think- about where I want my life to be in a year, the things I want to do, the people I need to share my heart with and so on. Some of this is a little bit scary but I have come to realize life is full of surprises, more than we ever deserve and being honest gets you further in life. There is one person in particular that I need to share my heart with and thinking of that makes my knees feel weak.

As I listen to the sweet sounds of a jazz band, the giggles of two blonde hair blue eyed beauts, and smell the salty ocean air, I know that life is good. The excitement that is held in the unknown is impeccable.

Heres to a year of adventure,surprises, and honesty...

Look to this day
For yesterday is but a dream,
And tomorrow is only a vision,
But today, well lived,
Makes every yesterday a dream of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well, therefore, to this day.
-Sanskrit Proverb

Ive got this friend

I have this friend. And she is more than amazing. And I do not tell her enough and I realize that I should try more. Sometimes I dont think that she understands how incredible she is, and without her here, where we live, life would be a different story. There is something sweet about her words, there is something soothing about her hugs. She is one of the only friends that I have ever had that can make me smile by virtually doing nothing. She is Godly, and gracious, and merciful. Shes patient and loves everyone. She is beautiful and kind and more things than words could ever explain. I am thankful for her, and the person she is in my life. She is encouraging, and willing to give you a kick to the butt if needed. She is tiny and petite. And I cant wait to see what this year has in store.

you know who you are..
