Here’s your fair warning: random rambling is about to happen….

Am I going through a quarter life crisis? Maybe. Okay, so I don’t really think I am, but I could see how maybe it could be perceived that way. I dye my hair (if you know me this is HUGE considering I’ve done it ONCE ever) on a Sunday and that following Friday I’m finding myself in a chair with a tattoo artist going to town on my foot. That’s right, I got a tattoo. Who would have ever guessed? Not me, that’s for sure. (and as I’ve found out this past week—no one else either!!) Just over a week later I still find myself looking down and thinking, “Man, I actually did it.” Ha. I LOVE it, too. I am SO glad I got it, and it has already been serving its purpose. Thank you, Lord.

So here goes a few confessions:
· Of the many, many things the Lord has taught me, revealed to me, and pressed up on me, I never stopped to think that wanting to adopt would be a relationship deal breaker. I don’t know why not, honestly. It makes sense, but just never occurred to me.
· I pray just about daily for a grace covered sinner, God fearing, Jesus loving, people serving, missions minded, Gospel proclaiming, prayer warrior type of husband.
· I have been so burdened for the companionship of a life ministry partner (see above) at times it’s just crazy.
· I constantly fight the battle of feeling lazy and irresponsible with my time regardless if I know it’s just not true.
· I drink milk out of the carton sometimes.
· I miss Uganda so bad sometimes it hurts.
· I love sleep a lot but would go without it (and often do) for the sake of a good conversation or fellowship.
· Sarcasm is not your friend when coming out of my mouth sometimes.
