There is a new sunrise every day

So I know that I have been MIA from my blog for awhile. There are many reasons for this, some of which don't need explaning but I wanted to write a little something that I've learned about myself in the past 10 weeks that I sincerely did not know about myself. So here goes....
1. I can cry A LOT. I have never been an emotional person and it seems that as I get older and life gets harder my emotions just overcome me and I can't stop them.
2. It is okay to let things be all about ME occasionally. (thanks Jen)
3. The people you least expect will surprise you and it means so much to you!
4. My family is tougher than I thought and supports me in all decisions I make.
5. I can't always be in control, though I would like to be.
6. I am on the best and I mean the BEST kindergarten team on the planet. Some of you may beg to differ, but I don't think any group of girls can top the girls that I work with everyday. I would not have survived the past year of my life without these girls. No matter where life takes me far in the future, I know we will always share a special bond. Thank you Joanne, Christian, Jennifer, and Janelle.
7. He would probably kill me if he saw this, but my husband has a soft side. I know when we got married we promised to stick by each other and agree to disagree on certain issues. That time was put to the test this past year and just like I knew we would, we stuck by each other, which will only make us stronger.
7. God has a plan for us, even if that plan doesn't always line up with the plan we have for ourselves. I'm slowly learning to let go and have faith that he will guide me in the right direction.

With all of that being said I have had to change some of the things on my list of 25 things to do. I am no longer taking a picture for everyday of being 25. This was an awesome goal, but one that just didn't fit into my life this year. There were some days where a picture couldn't even describe how I was feeling. So instead of my picture for a day, I have decided to volunteer for something I care about. That is why today, my husband and I are teaching 2nd grade Sunday School at the church that we will probably be joining this summer, Whites Chapel United Methodist Church.

I have always been a happy go lucky person and will always be that type of person. I can't help but smile even when I have tears, because I know that God won't put me through anything I can't handle and I know that I will have family and friends to walk beside me every step of the way.

Off to Sunday School I go.......
