The Day

The day came. The day when I would move out of the house. The day where I became my own provider (for the most part) and my own mother. The day where I became an official adult.

It was sad. It was exciting. It was scary. It was fun.

The day came and went.

I am here sitting in my new room. My room. In my desk, with my computer, drinking out of my cups. And I think I've finally started to come to peace with The Day. I have been nervous for months about yesterday. I haven't felt ready, I haven't felt confident, I haven't felt okay about it. But as the day came and went, I had so many small, sweet, and simple blessings to help the transition along. I know that I'll be okay.

So I am gone. I do not live at home anymore. But I am starting to make a new home for myself.
It'll be interesting. It'll be hard. It'll be fun and exciting.
And it'll be worth it.

And if it's not . . . well, life goes on, doesn't it?

Paige & Kaleb

Paige & Kaleb are the most disgustingly cute couple on planet earth. They make each other so happy and I'm so glad they met each other last fall. They both are such good examples of goodness and Christlike love. They were kind enough to let me practice on them with some last-weekend-together-before-his-mission pictures (or promise pictures. haha)! Here's a few:
