I'm going to New York in April. It's official. Whenever I think about it, I melt into a puddle of excitement.

I'm working full time at Wavetronix for the rest of this week.

I'm leaving for Mexico on Sunday

I'm going to the crater and finishing my scuba certification today.

I found me a voice teacher.

If I get these jobs at the day care and the office then I will NEVER be bored.

Are you sick of hearing about how much I love my life? I feel kind of bad...I'm not trying to rub anything in I promise. This blog has honestly just given me a better perspective about my life. When I got home from school I was convinced that this winter was going to be horrible, that I would rip my hair out with boredom and cry every day.

But when I post on this blog about the blatant blessings I am receiving, it is such a humbling experience to see how lucky I am, how I am being watched over. And I get to the point where I just want to share that. I know how hard life can be. Oh boy do I know it. I've been in the firey furnace before and it SUCKS. But I believe first hand in the power of faith, humility and patience. I believe in a God who watches out for me. When it gets hard, remember that it will get easier sometime. It might not be for a long time. It could be years. But the blessings will come.

I guess that's why I get so overwhelmed with excitement and can sometimes obnoxiously brag about my blessings. Because they are coming and it fills me with gratitude and joy.

Romans 5:3-5..."we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribuulation worketh patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us."
My heart is full of the love of God. May yours be also.

Love,
Am
