Love

I wish I could write out everything thats running through my mind right now, but for some odd reason I never can. Everything comes out all jumbled and NEVER makes sense. So tonight I am going to try. Haha so bear with me as I try to say (write) what is going through this thing we call a brain.

For about a week or so I've been reading the book Chicken Soup for the Couple's Soul. And no I am not in a relationship I just decided to read it in case one day I actually get in one. Its full of stories that make you laugh, and cry, and just go awww. It has all sorts of quotes from different people about love, for example Gottfried Wilhelm Van Lubreitz said, "To love is to place our happiness in the happiness of another." Seriously? How cute is that (: Its followed by this story of how in a marriage you should never ever keep a scorecard. In it the Mother says this to her daughter, "You see in a marriage, there is no scorecard. You do little things for eachother to make the other's life easier. If you think of it as helping the person you love, you don't become annoyed with doing the laundry or cooking, or any task, because you're doing it out of love." Again seriously

This is whats been on mind. What kind of wife and mother am I going to be?  I'd like to be the wife everyone talks about, you know the kind you want to hate but can't cause she is SO DANG AWESOME! I'd like to be the wife that encourages the use of the priesthood in her home. I'd like to be like the mom in the story and not keep a scorecard. I want to do the little things for him because I love him and because he does so much for me. I'd like to be the COOLEST mom out there. The mom that all kids want to be around because she is so chill (: I'd like to be the kind of mom that teaches her children the Gospel, who has family home eveing, who lets her children know how much their mother loves them. I know I won't be perfect, but a girl can strive right? All I know is that with the help of my Heavenly Father, I will be the best wife and mom I can be. If I let him lead and guide my life then I will have no worries. My marriage will be a marriage full of laughter and smiles and love.  As long as He is our foundation then what do I have to lose? I am sooo lucky to have that. To have all of these answers to the questions I have, like what kind of wife and mother am I going to be? I am so thankful for parents who have shown me the type of marriage I want! They are for reals the cutest parents out there! I love them to death! So thanks Mom and Dad for being such wonderful examples! You guys rock! Now that I have written what is on my mind hopefully it all makes sense. Maybe a little jumbled but thats how it is in my wonderful mind (:

Until next time lovlies <3
