Day 2-4 :)

Maybe i'm just not meant for the blogging world. My procrastination wins every single time :) Oh well, here we go on another attempt!

--Day 2 --
Meaning behind your blog name.

So I would really really love to be super creative, but sometimes I really fall short in that area. This one, is no exception- I know, such a disappointment.
Life, Love, & surviving motherhood.

That right there {basically} sums up my whole life, {though I think I should probably add nurse in there too haha} and the whole purpose this blog is supposed to hold. I'd love to learn to use my blog as an outlet for stress, and a memory keeper of all those little details about being a mommy that I really hope I don't forget.


If I ever become a serious blogger, I think i'll make my page represent it. For now, this will do :)

.:.:. Day 3 .:.:.
-your first love-

Lets start out by saying that I almost feel guilty about having to write about this! I think that as we're growing up, we all have those relationships where we just really really feel like "this is it". Even long before we understand what "it" is supposed to feel like. I definitely had that.

The first unnamed boy that I thought I loved was in my freshman year of highschool. He was what i'd call my first "boyfriend" and even though we were never ever allowed to go on a date or do anything alone, we hung out and were just best friends. The relationship lasted about 9 months, and then I moved from Indiana to Florida. It didn't take me too long to get over it, and very quickly I realized that what we shared was very far from true love.

Moving on... Without a doubt, my first real, true, can't live without you love, is and will always be Tony. From the moment I met him, I knew he would be important. Though more than three years has passed, I still get butterflies in my stomach every time he kisses me, and I always can't wait to see him when he gets home. I regret ever having told anyone I loved them before Tony, because I am the only girl Tony has ever said those words too. However, I feel like in my life all those experiences and what I thought were loves, only led me to have a greater appreciation for the man that truly would steal my heart.

*Day 4 *
..Your Parents..
My. Parents. Rock.

-My Mom-

My mom really is awesome. She is my very best friend, and someone I truly admire. She has always always been there for me & my brothers. At every sporting event, every class party, every feild trip. I feel beyond blessed to be her daughter, and for Ella to have her as a grandmother. For years she was a SAHM for us three kids, and then later became a realtor. But right now she is in her first semester of NURSING SCHOOL! Being in my last semester of nursing school myself, i KNOW what a big deal this is, how physically and emotionally draining, and how incredibly difficult the material is and she has NO IDEA how proud of her I am. I think it's awesome that she is finally chasing a dream she's had and doing it for herself. She's doing great, and she's going to make an AMAZING nurse!

-My dad-

My dad is so great :) i'd have to say i'm a very lucky girl. He is an engineer, and has always worked hard to provide a great life for my mom and us kids. When I was little I was a total daddy's girl, and going through my teenage years I started to think he knew absolutely nothing about life, but as i've gotten older I guess i've realized 9.9 times out of 10, he has been right. I love how our relationship is changing and evolving now that i'm an adult & I absolutely love our lunch dates & the talks we have now. He is also the most amazing papaw to Ella. She has him completely wrapped around her finger. {and even though when I was pregnant he said he wanted a grandson, I KNOW he couldn't be happier having a a beautiful granddaughter!}
