Last night as the Mr. and I were snuggling in for the night he leans over and says, I don't care what everyone says, I think you're hot. Hmmmm. My mind immediately goes to..... people say I'm not hot? That's really mean. Wow. That kind of hurt my feelings. I don't think I'm a beauty queen by any means but I clean up well. So I proceed to pepper him with a million questions about who these "people" are. Poor guy. I really think he was trying to be sweet and it came out the TOTALLY wrong way. :) Leave it to me and my super sensitiveness.
Now that I got over that one, I've moved on to thinking about Valentines Day!!!! I'm kind of excited this year. I don't get out much these days and I think it will be fun to get gussied up and go for a nice dinner at Carraba's (Our favorite place). Mind you we will not be dining on Valentines Day. We not much for huge crowds and long lines, it dampens the mood a tad. Nothing fancy but it's so nice to know that he remembered me and wants to take me out in public. :)
Had an interesting day at church yesterday. Haven't been for awhile. I think we're talking months. Not because I haven't wanted to, but because I've been sick with a new pregnancy and have been on bed rest. So I was asked to share when my testimony became real to me. Like I had to get up in front of the whole relief society and tell my most personal moment to complete strangers and people that I barely knew. It was really hard for me. I was suprised at that. Usually I don't have a hard time expressing myself but this time I did. I blubbered and bawled as I told about my many miscarriages, losing our home, and having financial struggles for years. I told them about my frustration and anger at Heavenly Father for letting us struggle so much especially when I was doing exactly what I was supposed to be doing and more. Then I told them about the amazing night when I felt my Heavenly Father and his awareness of me and my needs. Did I mention that I was very blunt while telling this story? I have a very colorful way of talking and I don't think it sits well with everyone. Oh well. They asked to me to do it.
So I am feeling the Spirit a little bit more today and am so grateful for all of the blessings in my life. I am so fortunate and blessed and am grateful for the opportunity to help and serve others.
