journey...

 

I finished my last final yesterday.

The last final of my college career that is.

 

I was one of the first students to finish my test.. not necessarily because

I rocked it but because I was rushing to meet Jay so that we could swap our little Minky.

 

As I handed my professor my final he asked me,

 

"What are you going to do now that you are graduating???"

 

Raise babies.

 

Ya know...

world changers. children with integrity who love Jesus above all else. God's heroes.

 that sorta thang. I've only got one shot at this...and I'm gonna give it all I got.

 

He sure didn't see that one coming.

 

Ohh how I've enjoyed this college journey of mine.

It definitely took me longer than expected- but to each their own I say.

 I am grateful that I've been given this opportunity and I am looking forward to wrapping it all up.

 

 I am excited and more than ready to exist in the realm of

strictly husband lovin' and baby makin'... and maybe a few other plans that I've

got stored up in this little mind of mine. 

 

I walked out of class and met Jay.

The sweet thing was in a frazzle as he was trying to get to work on time. 

 We exchanged a "WOO HOO IT'S OVER" kiss and a shoeless sticky faced Mink.

 

K: "What in the heck is all over his face..it looks like blood?!"

 

J: "He found a fruit leather in his carseat on the way over."

 

haha.

 

I then took my pile of books in one arm and Grey in the other and

marched myself to the bookstore to return those suckers for good. 

 

As we passed through the big brick buildings and the swarm of students I began to think about all the plans that I had thought I wanted for my life...many of them I had carried with me around this very campus over the years.

 

A sense of joy and confirmation came over me...

 

God's plans are so much better than my own.

 

I held Grey close and told him,

 

"I choose you and this life every. single. time."
