You're My Favorite!

Funny thing just happened that brings me back to a scenario I ran across before.

-This happened through text-

Dad: B GOOD WN I M NOT HOME LOVE U AND MISS U

Me: Insurance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dad: Oh yes Wlll do

Me: SOON!!!! Have fun. Love you. Bye!

Dad: Tx you my favorite baby

This is brought me back to a story that I heard.

There was a Mother who cared for three kids. As they were occupied on the front lawn enjoying nature, the Mother asked for her oldest child. They were both faced to face in an empty room, and she said "Honey, out of your other siblings, you are my favorite". She then sent out her oldest back to the lawn and got her middle child. To that child, she said the same thing and once more to the younger child. This gave her kids a boost of confidence, evidently showing how much Momma cared for them- only want to see her kids achieving.

Just thought I'd share.

The Feeling.

Father dearest is going to Oregon for a week to visit. I'm having mixed feelings about this, whether I'll miss him or am relieved that he will be gone. To my distraction, I was hoping he'd get me insurance for driving before he left, but....nada. So I await another week without insurance. Summer is summer and whatever happens, happens- I guess. Well..either way, insurance or no insurance, Dada or no Dada, Momma and I will have fun...it's just sometimes driving alone is more fun :P

Realizing.

Before I realized that I wanted to blog again, I re-read what I had to say, in the past months. I could truly say that I've grown into someone who I wanted to be. From where I started to whom I've become, I'd always look for the good in every bad. So rooted in my Faith, I think it comes natural. Is it really human to do so? Not really. But I'm not saying that I'm superhuman. Through and through, as humans, we sometimes pursue in "the dream" and not "the reality". After attending this camp, I've realize you set yourself up for disaster in order to succeed. For instance, you shoot for what you could do, instead of what you can do. At first, I was puzzled- thinking: "Why waste your time aiming for something mediocre when you can get down to the point and aim for something achievable?" Though it is easier to see ourselves overcome rather than relinquish, we are afraid of taking the risk. In almost any concept, such as relationships, friendships, family or jobs... it all works out the same. Never would we settle for less, but never would we set up for more. Ah-it's a thought that has now gotten me overwhelmed. Then again, I think it holds true. Think about it. Realize.
