In the mean time...I read something important the other day and wanted to share it...

Do not be mislead: "Bad company corrupts good character."
1 CORINTHIANS 15:33

Beware of associating with or adopting the attitudes of people who, through their negative outlook and lack of self-esteem, will rob you of the greatness that God has for you.  

This is a small excerpt from an entry out of Joel Osteen's, "Your Best Life Begins Each Morning."

So, looking back, I need to apologize for the way I made that poor girl in the waiting room feel uncomfortable when I snapped at her.  It is only me that can control and choose the things that come out of my mouth, and that was a poor choice.  She meant nothing bad by her comment and was just making small talk...poor, unsuspecting girl.  

I need to stay centered and keep my positive outlook, along with an upbeat demeanor.

Optimist: someone who isn't sure whether life is a tragedy or a comedy but is tickled silly just to be in the play.  
~Robert Brault

This journey is a great opportunity for me to build up my character with strength and virtue, to learn how to persevere, and to show everyone that it is my attitude that gets me where I'm going.  I will achieve motherhood, and just because I am having a tough time doesn't mean that I need to take it out on others. 

Back to waiting...yep..still waiting...any day now...ANY...DAY...

Love you all ~ thanks for waiting with me :)

  1. I love your Robert Brault comment. I'm thinking of printing and framing it around the house. Most of the time I really am just thrilled to be here. :)
