I definitely am looking forward to starting my life and being & staying HAPPY. i look forward to meeting a good-hearted man who will love me forever, and that i can love forever. he will be honest and kind and special. i dont want to meet just any man and rush into life. i dont think thats right. i want to meet the RIGHT one for me. (Heaven and knows i've been through a lot of wrong ones.) anyway, dont get me wrong by this post.... i know love and marriage isnt all roses and daisies and all that crap- but i know something is going to come for me someday that i havent had before. and i'll fight for it when its right. and it is going to change my life. if i don't have faith in my future.. i will never get that future. my mother and i had a conversation about this today... where are we without faith? alone. and raise your hand if you like being completely alone? NOT. I.

so i guess i love family or something...whatever...maybe i just have been seeing too many adorable baby nursery pictures on pinterest. :/ whatever. and so what if i'm baby hungry!?!?!? my friends are married and are getting baby bumps..... i may be jealous. sue me.
SO, COME ALONG, PRINCE CHARMING! (in a year or so, k. dont come right now, i got too much on my plate. k thx bai)
