Things I Miss

This morning, as I drove to work, I suddenly felt reminiscent for a bunch of random things. Naturally, I thought I would share :)

• I miss just last week when Brinkley was small enough to fit perfectly in my lap. She wasn't as brave then and she wouldn't leave my side.
• I miss Disney World. I heard an Aerosmith song in the car and I instantly longed for the thrill of Rockin' Rollercoaster at Hollywood Studios. I also miss the excitement I feel when I'm at the parks - it really brings out the kid in me.
• I miss the early days of my relationship with Jimmy (although, don't get me wrong, I LOVE everything about being married now!). I look back at one night that we spent before we started dating. We walked around on a golf course and then watched the stars. I remember the rush of feelings I had for him and wondered if he felt them back. When I think back to those days, I get butterflies again.
• I miss seeing my friends all the time. With work and a crazy life, I only see my friends at little spurts. Growing up is definitely harder than it looks when you are a kid.
• I miss Oklahoma in the spring. No humidity, just beautiful weather.
• I miss Jimmy A LOT. God is putting our marriage to the ultimate test this last month as we await the day we can finally live and be together.
• I miss having the energy to run 3 or more miles a day. Things just haven't been the same since I graduated.
• I miss homework and studying. Yes, it may seem odd, but I totally miss it.

Although I miss quite a lot of things, I can't help but praise God for all of the amazing things that He is doing in my life. I praise Him for giving me all those times in my life that I can now look back on with such fondness. God is good, ALL the time!
