Random Ramblings

A few random things have been floating through my head.

1. I got called to the relief society presidency and after our first meeting last night I feel 100% inadequate for the job. I left our cute president's apartment and wanted to cry on my way home. I have no clue why I was called to this calling. If you only knew the ward I was in you would understand that I am highly under qualified. We have some of those most amazing woman. Beside the feeling of inadequacy, I am so so so excited. I am sure it's going to be a calling where I grow, which I am excited for.

2. I took Soph outside this morning to swing on the swings which she absolutely loves. I wish I had my camera with me. That little lady can't get enough of them and smiles and laughs the whole time she is one them. As we finished up and were walking home I couldn't help but absolutely love the apartment complex we are in. Our little court is nothing close to luxurious or glamorous. In fact, it's old an falling apart but I love it so much. I love how safe I feel here. I love that we are all students and all married. I love my neighbors. I love the mornings that I look out my window and see a million little rug rats running around on the playground in the center of the court. I love my ward. I love my friends. I love the little bubble we live in. It's like nothing can harm us. I love this season of life. I've heard older couples say they are so glad that they have moved on from all of that but I think they day we finish school and buy a house will be bittersweet. We love it here and we sure are lucky.

Love Birds

I've been blog stalking, as usual. I've come across a blog that I am quite liking - not because it's above and beyond other blogs but because when reading it you have absolutely no doubt in your mind that her and her husband are 100% in love. It's obvious in her posts and pictures, and her honesty about marriage and life is kind of refreshing. It's sometimes nice to read that someone else's life isn't rainbows and sunshine all the time. She's honest in admitting that there are arguments and tiffs but is so good at showing that their love is deeper than that. I like that.

I hope that when people look at our little family and our little love, they can see we are so in love, so happy, and best friends.
