i...

I am having a hard time writing down my thoughts at the moment. I sit down and the words just do not come. So.
I am doing another list. Yet again.
But I really like this one. A lot. It says things so simply.
Someday, when my children read this, they will understand me a little bit more. I hope.

Here goes:

i...

i am.... grateful
i think... who we are is reflected in what we do
i know... i am loved
i want... my family to all live by each other
i have... my dream guy
i dislike... pessimism
i miss... my family that isn't close
i fear... failure
i feel... happy
i hear.... sweet baby babbles
i smell... coconut...mmm
i crave.... understanding
i cry... when i am inspired by others strength
i usually... talk too much
i enjoy... walks with my boys
i search... for my hidden talent
i wonder.... what my relationship with my boys will be like as they get older
i regret... worrying about things i cannot change
i love... my life
i worry... what kind of world my children will inherit
i am not... always who i want to be
i remember... little things that mean a lot
i believe... in Jesus Christ
i dance... with 2 little boys in the living room
i don't... have my house organized like i want to
i write... because i love it
i win... some and lose some
i lose... my mind more often than not!
i am trying... to become
i always...give kisses
i rarely...get everything done on my lists
i never... say things how i mean them
i wish... i was always optimistic (I'm working on this one)
i listen... to lots of different music
i don't understand... a lot of things
i can usually be found... reading a book
i am scared... of losing my family
i need to lose... my impatience
i forget... to keep track of time
i dream... of vacations with family
i am happy... to be me

i am... smiling at your willingness to share and your undaunted writer's/blogger's voice looking vulnerability in the eyes, yet choosing to post anyway... thanks, Nicole!
