2 hearts now 1

I walked around my entire life only half alive and didn't even know it. I never felt the joy that only true love can bring. I was so caught up in finding it and trying to immulate what I'd seen in other couples that I tried to hold on to a fake version and let myself get broken.
You did the same. Living your life without being loved the right way. According to the girls who "loved" you, love was cheating, lying, and hurting.
We didn't know what was missing until the day we found each other. I don't think God could have made two people more perfect for each other. There's a reason we agree on every important issue, never run out of things to talk about, have the same tastebuds, and even feel the exact same way about each other... because we are 2 pieces to a bigger puzzle. Alone we are only half and when we are together, we are whole. We are both complete in Christ, but there's something we feel, something we breathe in when we're together. It's something you only get from your one true love, the one God intended you to find. The one he lead you down all those rocky roads so you could finally get to. You hold my heart wherever you go and I have yours with me. Separated we could never cheat, because we don't have our hearts with us. How could anyone steal my heart when it's in your hands?
You are my shooting stars wish and I am the one you never thought you'd find.
We used to be 2 and now we are 1.
I love you Crockett Thompson.

"Here" by Rascal Flatts
There's a place I've been looking for
That took me in and out of buildings
Behind windows, walls and doors
And I thought I found it
Couple times, even settled down
And I'd hang around just long enough
To find my way back out
I know now the place that I was trying to reach
Was you, right here in front of me

And I wouldn't change a thing
I'd walk right back through the rain
Back to every broken heart
On the day that it was breakin'
And I'd relive all the years
And be thankful for the tears
I've cried with every stumbled step
That led to you and got me here, right here

It's amazing what I let my heart go through
To get me where it got me
In this moment here with you
And it passed me by
God knows how many times
I was so caught up in holding
What I never thought I'd find
I know now, there's a million roads
I had to take
To get me in your arms that way
In a love I never thought I'd get to get to-here
And if that's the road
God made me take to be with you

And I'd relive all the years
And be thankful for all the tears
I've cried with every stumbled step
That led to you and got me here, right here
Oh, baby-OooOh, got me here

i can't stop smiling

i am absoluetly, 100% in love.

and it feels like i'm floating.

d.s.

is it possible to love a child this much when he's not your own? dallas sillman is the most precious little boyi have ever known. he's very emotional and a little aggressive. he's stubborn and when he wakes up from nap the first thing he needs is a hug. he tells me to come to his house every day and the moment i walk in the door each morning i get the best hug in the world from him. we play this game called baby dallas and he loves me. almost as much as i love him. i can put him in time out and yell at him and he still adores me. just like he can not listen and hit kids but i still adore him. i miss him when i go home and on the weekends i wish i could see him. he is my love and the reason i go to work. i love that little boy and he is a blessing in my life, a light in my day. i'm so incredibly lucky to be his teacher.

perfect love

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails."
[I Corinthians 13:4-8a]

him <3

his favorite color is red, but he looks best in blue. he can dance. he can sing. he loves scary things, but he's afraid of dark figures. he has green eyes, but at night they turn honey. his favorite drink is milk. his hand is bigger than mine, but his fingers fit perfectly between mine. he's there to win. he listens to all sorts of music. his favorite band is switchfoot. he's popular and has tons of friends, but he's scared he'll get hurt... especially by me. his laugh is addictive. his voice is soothing and reassuring. when he puts his hands on my hips, i feel beautiful. Christ is his number 1. he loves cheeseburgers. his touch makes me melt. he loves his family, especially his twin sister. he really wants to go to italy and france. his greatest memories are from summers spent on rec team. he played texas high school football, and won state. he's always honest. if he could live anywhere it'd be colorado or hawaii. his lips are soft. he is romantic. he's outragous and dangerous. he likes stars. he does not eat fruit or vegetables [except corn]. he's never had a starbucks drink. he says hilarious things when he's tired. he is a great story teller. he actually likes the sound of music. he loves sports, especially water sports. he is beautiful in every sense of the word. he'll do anything if you say he won't or can't. he makes me feel invincible. he's crazy about me.

he has my heart.
