Good Thang

Have you ever been in a place of complete ecstasy? That's how I feel right now. From the outside, my life is the same as it has been for the last six years (plus my Lizzie Lou!), but the inside is totally different. My body, soul, and mind is filled with peace. Never in my life have I not worried about something. I've worried about tuition, about bills, about family, about my future, about my exes, about my friends, about friendships, about everything. Contrarily, nothing plagues my brain right now. I think it comes with knowing where my future is headed. Here's my life for the next five years (in short)...Teach for the next two and half months, live it up for two months, bust my ass in one of the nation's top law schools for the next three years, and work somewhere earning 150,000 for about a year and half. I know I sound a little cocky, but it's the truth. God has already shown it to me. I have complete faith in Him and his promises. I know sometimes we try to make our plans into God's plans, but that's honestly not what I am doing. I asked for some guidance and he showed it to me. There are still some things He has to show me, but in my mind, those are the trees. I've seen the forrest. I can't concern myself with wood types.
As for my girl, she is marvelous! My leading lady can say all of the important words: Mommy, Mama, Lizzie, mine, and thank you. Kidding, kidding (kinda)! She can say all of those, but she has a few more in her repetoire! She loves grapes and talapia and broccoli and salmon and applesauce and her mommy! She has six teeth and two coming in. She's long and lean like her pa, with beautiful lashes and hair to match his. Those big doe eyes are enchanting. The cute button nose and pouty lips that she inherited from mommy complete her perfect little face. She's a little fiesty and spoiled, both compliments of me. (I'm paying for it now though!) She likes all noise makers. She loves her cook sets (one Princess Tiana and one Beauty or Aurora or whatever her name is). She throws temper tantrums, but they are always carefully thought out. They happen the same way every time. She realizes that she can't get her way; she lays on her back and starts kicking and screaming. Crazy I tell ya, crazy. There's never a tear in sight, but if you heard her, you would swear she's in agony. I don't know where she got that. Oh well. She'll grow out of it (with my help, sooner rather than later.) Oh and her sitter is AMAZING. I love her because she loves my girl and my girl loves her. Elizabeth never cries when I drop her off or pick her up. She goes willingly into daycare. She comes home clean and dry. She likes the other kids. Hell, I've learned their names! I don't know. Everything's good!
I guess the only two people who matter are me and the leading lady!

Until later, peace and blessings.
