The day, Christmas Eve. The air was palpable. The calm before the storm.
I love bumbling around the house before anyone else is up; especially on Christmas Eve. I know whats coming - excitement, joy, laughter, tears. It truly is the best day of the year.
I am richly blessed and I know it.
Having my brother and his wife home for Christmas this year was a special treat. We had a great Christmas Eve at mom and dads.

Who Do You Want To Be?
I'm following a blogger friend of mine, and using question prompts to help get out of a blog slump and have some cool things to write about. The title of this post was one of the prompts.
"Who Do You Want To Be?"
This is a very tricky, but really quite easy question. I want to be the woman that I am. I want to make people happy, and make sure that I am happy. I want to be an amazing wife, and a great mom. I want to be someone who inspires my co-workers, and the kind of friend that my friends know they can lean on. Each one of these makes up the person I strive to be.
The Best Wife I Can Be
One of the things I love about Ross is he lets me be who I am. In the almost 20 years that we've been together I have always felt comfortable in that fact. He never doubts or diminishes my feelings, and even though we DON'T agree on each other's views all the time, I don't feel as though he judges me. We balance each other well, and I really like that about us.

An Awesome Mom
This one is HUGE for me. There is nothing in this world more important to me than being a good mother to my boys. I was so very blessed to have wonderful examples of what great moms are. My mother and grandmother have shown me exactly what family truly means. I am forever thankful for all the memories my parents filled my mind and heart with, and I sincerely hope that I have been able to do the same for my own children.
A Good Friend
My friendships are important to me, and even though I've been on this earth almost 40 years, I'm still learning what it is to be a good friend. I tend to keep people at a distance. I don't share a lot of my worries or excitements because I often feel like it is something I need to work through on my own. I am working to be better at this.
