"Holy crap!" Sometimes I look around myself and that's what pops into my head. Such an exclamation is often followed by, "When did all this happen?!?"
I'm living in freakin' beautiful Colorado (still pleasantly surprised to be here). I am freakin' married to the love of my life (still pleasantly surprised that we found each other). I'm a freakin' mom (me?? seriously??) to an adorable 6 month old who is growing like a weed, crawling like a champ, trying to take those first steps of wonderous walking and getting in to everything he possibly can. And now my little family (still pleasantly surprised that I have one of my own) is house hunting for the perfect little (cheap) home to call our own.
Seriously!?! When did I grow up. I mean inside I'm still the quiet little freshman who's afraid of boys (but liked them alot), only worrying about how she is going to pay the next semester's rent, and (more importantly) worried about meeting her new roommates, and (most importantly) meeting "the one". I still use words like freakin', I still love to play in the rain and go puddle jumping, I even love to watch cartoons still. Sometimes I feel like I've been locked inside my brain while my life kept going and then all the sudden I break out and find all these wonderful yet surprising things and I wonder how it all could have happened??
And then I remember all the good times and the not so good times, all the joys and the trials. And the surprises don't seem so surprising any more. And I think, "Gee, isn't life great!"
