Day 17: Just Happy!

Man I don't know about you but, every once in a while I have those days where I wake up in such a FABULOUS mood that nothing can go wrong. Today is totally one of those days!

It doesn't bother me that I have a room full of mean, screaming, biting, hitting, etc. kids, that I need to pack everything by Saturday and have 2 boxes packed, that I need to focus on bills, book my flight and hotel and stuff for San Diego in August, that I have been feeling sick, or that my husband is not here, there is much more to worry about but I won't go into too much detail! lol.

Days like this make me feel like nothing can touch me.

But, don't worry.. the enemy won't let me off that easy.. I guarentee that tomorrow will be the worst day ever! Doesn't it always seem to end up like that?

I claim joyful good days for ever in the name of the Lord. :)

So I heard a new song today on Mix 106 and I really related to it. Although it is secular it has such an amazing underlying meaning.

Here are the lyrics:
I never thought that you would be the one to hold my heart
But you came around and you knocked me off the ground from the start

You put your arms around me
And I believe that it's easier for you to let me go
You put your arms around me and I'm home

How many times will let you me change my mind and turn around
I can't decide if I'll let you save my life or if I'll drown

I hope that you see right through my walls
I hope that you catch me, 'cause I'm already falling
I'll never let a love get so close
You put your arms around me and I'm home

The world is coming down on me and I can't find a reason to be loved
I never wanna leave you but I can't make you bleed if I'm alone

You put your arms around me
And I believe that it's easier for you to let me go

I hope that you see right through my walls
I hope that you catch me, 'cause I'm already falling
I'll never let a love get so close
You put your arms around me and I'm home

I tried my best to never let you in to see the truth
And I've never opened up
I've never truly loved 'Till you put your arms around me
And I believe that it's easier for you to let me go


I hope that you see right through my walls
I hope that you catch me, 'cause I'm already falling
I'll never let a love get so close
You put your arms around me and I'm home

You put your arms around me and I'm home


Ugh.. I mean really?!? How perfect is this song? Love is such a splendid thing. No matter your age. When you find someone who makes you feel like the person God entended you to be and loves you like God loves you.. That is something truly remarkable.


I love the last line.. You put your arms around me and I'm home. <3 


8 more weeks until I will be "home".


Well, I suppose that is all that is on my mind for now.. Stay tuned as the days grow longer and my heart grows stronger.
