A daily look into my life as a wife, mom, sister to 7, daughter and friend as I am dealing with Systemic Lupus. I am only 33 years young and sometimes deal with what 70 yr. olds deal with. My life is scary, blessed and different from day to day. I know I am not the only "young" woman going through this....maybe through my pain and experience I can help someone...
Welcome to my world...
I hope and pray that you get something from my blog. I have been dealing with my Lupus for 9 years and have been through it all! I was diagnosed at 25 and have had to learn to be a mom, wife and friend while dealing with a chronic illness... hope I can help or you help me!!

Good at being me!
I thought I had to have a career or special hidden talent to count on this earth, to have a purpose. I was so wrong! I have been evaluating my life the past few months, what I am good at, what I am not so good at. Some days it would bring me happiness, others it just made me sad. i couldn't figure out what I am meant to do. Then it hit me. For today, for right now I am supposed to be just me. I was meant to be the oldest sibling to 7 other children. I was meant to have my daughter at 17 and learn the love of a mother at a young age. I was meant to marry my husband Bobby. I was meant to have the friends I do, that I cherish so very much. God doesn't make mistakes. I am perfectly imperfect in His eyes. Money and possessions don't make me, the people I love and who love me is what is important. The other night I went out with 5 of my girlfriends, I had not seen most of them since my wedding in August. As we were waiting for our movie (No Strings Attached...it was amazing!! Go see it!!) I was looking at all my friends and thinking how blessed I am. Why did God put these wonderful women in my life? I can't question why me, it just is. I need to accept what God has blessed me with and love and live the very best I can. Not to say I don't need to challenge myself or learn new things but I can say now I am happy with being good at being me.
