Today...

Today I listened to some Raffi songs that we use to listen to on the way to Grandma's house. And it made me cry, I miss having innocence, I miss Grandma, I miss being care free, I miss Utah, I miss rolling down hills, I miss playing in the rain, I miss bum hills, I miss Rick(and he hasn't even left yet), I miss Primary, I miss Gymboree, I miss raisins, I miss the time when I didn't have to pay attention in sacrament (just kidding), I miss flying kites, I miss building forts out of chairs and sheets, I miss The Friend, I miss animal crackers, I miss kiddie pools , I miss Pokemon, I miss being able to get into place for free, I miss getting an award for using the potty, I miss free food, I miss the kids menu, I miss not having responsibility, I miss when school use to be easy, I miss happy meals, I miss Legos, I miss Barbies, I miss fudge sickles, I miss lemon drops, I miss parades, and the list can go on forever.
But I am also grateful the blessing to grow and learn. Because honestly it would stink to not learn from your mistakes, and to never be able to go on rollercoasters because your too short, or never go on a date, or never drive.

Peanut Butter goes wiht ANYTHING!!

I have come to the conclusion that peanut butter goes well with pretty much anything, take for example:
  • PBJ
  • Ants on a log
  • Peanut butter noodles
  • Oreos
  • Marshmallows 
  • Toast
  • Peanut butter oatmeal 
  • Peanut butter cookies
  • Peanut butter Cheesecake
  • Pancakes
  • Peanut butter maple syrup
  • Peanut butter cake 
  • Peanut butter fingers 
  • Shortbread
  • Peanut butter Chocolate sauce 
  • Pudding cake
  • Banana sandwiches 
  • Steak sauce
  • Smoothies 
  • Hot chocolate
  • Chips
  • Ice Cream 
  • Cold pizza 
  • Strawberries
  • Chicken nuggets
  • Carrots
  • Apples
  • Gram crackers
As you can see, my point is made! I love peanut butter! Now for!!! The cuttest movie ever! YOU HAVE TO WATCH

What do you wnat to be when you grow up?

Yesterday  I was spent time with the coolest girl ever, Talana, (check out her blog here!) and I asked her what she wanted to be when she grows up.  And you know what she said? A mother! And you know what I  think a lot.... maybe too much sometimes. This got me thinking,  a mother, oh how I can't wait for motherhood *yes I am waiting, no pregnant teenager here*. It is a whole new world that I am itching to explore. I know it will be exhausting and hard, but  I look forward to the challenge. Mothers have an awesome 6th since that no one else has, the ability to listen, and hear, and love, and care, and learn, and teach, and the list goes on and on.
Another thing that Talana said to me was, "you will be a good  mom". Not only did this come to me as a big complement I was kinda surprised. Because I have heard this once before from my aunt Jill. But the first time you here something it doesn't always set in. "You will be a great mom", this is  a great complement since that is what I want to be when i grow up!

Things like occupations always worry me. First of all, everyone I know always has at least 1,2 or 3 things they have in mind to do when they grow up. I NEVER  have any idea what i want to do. Until just recently, I either want to be a psychologist, school guidance counselor, or  occupational therapists. I want to help others and love listening to peoples problems. I want to help those I love, and that is everyone!
I can either work with crazies, or crazy-crazies. I talked to Sister Skipper last Wednesday about psychology because that is what she is studying right now. And my eyes are open, it sounds like a job for me. But who knows!

One quote that I live by is "I may or may not be indecisive I have not decided yet". All I know for sure is that I want to be a mom. But who knows about the other stuff....... But for know this is who I am, and who i am going to be.  

Thank you Jill,Thank you Talana!
