Just some thoughts...

I haven't posted anything for a week or so...and I don't have anything extremely productive to say. However, I'm in a pensive mood, so I thought I might just share some of those thoughts.

First of all, I'm so grateful for my family. I'm grateful that I have two sisters that I get along with, that love me and treat me as their friend. I'm grateful to have parents that love me unconditionally, and would do anything for me at the drop of a hat. I am so thankful for their example to me, and hope that Judd and I can pattern our parenting after the way they raised my sisters and me.

I'm also EXTREMELY grateful to have the most wonderful husband in the whole world. I have found the quote at the top of our blog to be so true. ("Being in love is when the other person's happiness is essential to your own"). He has become my whole world. When he struggles, it makes me so sad and I feel like I would do anything to make things right. I love him and thank my Heavenly Father every day that He led me to someone who makes me so happy and treats me like a queen.

Another thing I have been thinking about, is how our own attitude and thoughts are so ESSENTIAL to our own happiness. I find myself complaining at my job, A LOT. I started thinking about how I feel when I do that. I feel like I can't stand another day there, and everything that happens seems like such a burden and bogs me down. I realized that if I could start focusing on all of the wonderful things about my job the tough things might not seem like such a big deal. I want to be that kind of person. I want to see the positive side of situations and not get so wrapped up in the negative. I know I would feel so much better, and would probably be more fun to be around. Starting today, I'm going to try to be a more positive person.

Anyway, those are the things on my mind right now! Enjoy. :)
