What a blogging title :) Let me explain though. Honesty: I've been a really bad blogger lately and it has alot to do with my attitude. It isn't that I haven't had anything to blog about, it's more I've been
frustrated in the things I have to blog about. As I read countless other blogs/facebooks about people who have already started a family and have a cute baby to write about, I started getting down and not wanting to blog or facebook because I thought, "What is the point? I don't have a family." I feel so behind as I watch my friends announce pregnancy after pregnancy on facebook. As happy as I am for them, it has been hard on me lately and I haven't been wanting to blog.
However, I wouldn't be blogging if I wasn't working on this attitude of mine. I want to be content. I want to be happy in the exact place and time in my life that God has me right now. I am choosing to be content and I am choosing to accept God's will for my life. And, even though I'm in tears right now, I WILL be content.
In a strange shift, I didn't want to just end on a bad note so I wanted to leave you with a picture of my finished extra bedroom that I have made my scrapbooking/random room. The lighting makes it look yellow but it is actually a brown color.

I love your honesty. And your cute room!!! And I love you. :D
Erika,
I can empathize on your thoughts of this blog because I concur with my own life. Only very recently have I finally accepted what God has been telling me for two years. With that came his peace and a renewed look on life. I'll be praying for you as you seek God and His will for your life. Remember not to look at other people's stories because yours might be different. I love you, dear friend and cousin! (love your new room!)
Oh Erika! I find it somewhat ironic that I was just thinking, "All I blog about is my baby! I wish I could be clever and find other more interesting things to blog about, like I used to do pre-baby." :-) Grass is always greener... I appreciate your honesty.
The grass does always seem to be greener on the other side!! Thanks for your comments, friends :) God has been helping me in this area and I know I'm not alone in this struggle!! :)
