Are We Alike?

They say that Mia looks just like me; my friend, Michaela, calls her the "good-time girl". That is so true. She like to have a good time and has a free spirit. I just hope that she isn't too free, like her mother. For example, I ran into another vehicle this weekend with the new mini-van. I don't know how Paul keeps so calm with me. You all know how organized and exact my hubby is. He is very intentional and does not just "pull into a parking lot or do something on the spur of the moment". Me, on the other hand..........well I hit parked cars in a church parking lot. How hard is that??? To top it off, Paul sliced his hand open while showing the owners of the hit vehicle what I had done. So he had to go to urgent care on Sunday to have 4 stitches put in. Look what I have done?? I sure do love my husband. He hasn't said ONE negative thing to me. Let's not forget that we have a large sum of money to pay in order to get the van fixed. Those of you who know us well are probably choked up in laughter cause you know how opposite Paul and I are!!! I'm so glad for Grace!!!!

About Me

My photo
alexander crew
I am probably one of the few people who LOVE getting older. Each day brings about so much for me to learn. Sometimes I selfishly wish God had just told me all the really important stuff when I turned 13, but He has allowed me to journey, grow, and learn by experiencing life. I love life and I love my family. I have the opportunity to love these things because He first loved me. Praise God for Grace!
