LIFE!!!

I get it, life happens, I feel like it should be slower, but it just keeps going by faster and faster it seems. This past year has been a good one for me. Sure there have been changes, some good some not, some hard and others easy. But what would life be without change and growth. This January 22 will be the one year mark of the passing of a very dear loved one. This saddens me that its already been a year, at times it feels as though it was just yesterday. I can remember the days before and after her death so vividly I hope they will never leave my mind.

But this January also marks another change in my life, one that I hadn't vocalized to my parents till right around this time, my desire to serve a mission. I can remember the late night conversation with my mom, what about school? is it possible for me to graduate before I leave on a mission? what about after that? It was one of those conversations that makes me grateful for my parents and their constant and never ending love and support.

That brings us to today. Tomorrow will be my last first day of a semester in college, freaky yes, but exciting. Also in the next few weeks I hope to be able to submit my mission papers, before I know it I'll be gone serving the Lord, and to me that is the most exciting thing in my life!!
