I did it. I decided to come back to the blogging world. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There's been a lot happen since my last regular posting. I've started a "new" job and had a baby. I'd say being busy is an understatement. But I've missed the interaction with my blog. I've missed looking back at pictures and documenting the things that seem to pass so quickly every day. In fact, when I got the new look up and running I took some time to re-read over some old posts about my wedding and meeting Brian. I was flooded with sweet memories of falling in love with him and planning our life together. It was good for my soul to read those words.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
That's what I've missed. My soul loves to write and pour my feelings out for those I love and cherish. Now I have a beautiful baby girl to snuggle and watch grow into a little lady. I will be taking a step back in time and sharing her birth story one day soon. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I don't intend on making myself an every day blogger like I used to strive for. I let myself start to see the blog as a "chore" instead of a hobby. I'll blog when I have time. I'll live life and enjoy it all, one day at a time. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I'll share too many pictures and be perfectly okay with that. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I'm ready for the blogging world again. Is it ready for me?</div>

It has been quite some time since I left my mark in the blogging world. This used to be my hobby, my peace, my moment in each busy day. Now, I find myself moving from one chore to the next and watching the clock until the baby cries. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Yes, that's right. There is now a baby. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I'll get around to sharing her birth story and some great pictures, but for now I'm just trying to get my feet back wet and fix some broken links. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
It's time to get back to me. Time for me to get back to what I love, writing.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
2016 is going to be amazing. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">

Hi, friends! If there's any of you left... </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Back in January, I made the announcement that I was taking some time off from blogging to focus more on me and my personal life. Well, I did just that and it was a nice breath of fresh air. I really think sometimes in life we just need to stop and listen to our hearts more. There was such a large part of me that needed the time away from the responsibility of blogging. (And as we all know, blogging is almost like a second job!)</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
So, it's April and I'm back. I don't intend to push myself to keep some insane blogging schedule. I think that's where I went wrong before. I pushed myself to write when I didn't even feel like thinking.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I want to write to <i>truly</i> write. I have always been a fan of documenting my thoughts in some fashion and that's what I hope to get back to here on the blog.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I've missed reading about your lives and the things going on with all of you. I can't wait to dive back in and see how ya'll are doing. And as for me, and what I've been doing... WELL. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
You'll have to come back and see.. It's a story to tell! </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<i>Don't you just love it when people do that?! </i></center>
<center>
<br /></center>
<center>

Well, it's come time for the big announcement. I'm ending the blog, for now. It's probably not much of a shocker since I have been missing for the last 4 months, but I wanted to put the official word out there. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I've loved every single minute of the blogging world and have made some great friends along the way; however, at this given point in my life, there is just simply the need to step down. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I have deleted the Facebook page, the Instagram account, and Twitter just in case anyone has noticed any of those social media outlets missing. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I hope to one day get back into the swing of the blogging world, and there are some things I would love to take time to come back and document one day. But that day does not have a time stamp at this point. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I appreciate all the opportunities and would love to keep some of the friendships. Please, know this is nothing personal. I just need some time to devote to my husband and family right now. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
With that said, I'm going to call this a close. Happy Blogging, friends!</center>
<center>
<br /></center>

My eyesight is something everyone knows about me... well, the lack of. I remember being a small child and not being able to see things like everyone else could and feeling embarrassed to admit such things.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
While on vacation one year, my mom realized just how much I couldn't see and from that day forward I started my lifelong mission to not only see, but to be fashionable at the same time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Glasses haven't always been in the variety of style as they are today. When I was growing up, glasses were still the "uncool" thing to have. Now, you see people wearing them simply for a fashion statement.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.firmoo.com/" target="_blank">Firmoo</a> is an online website that offers a variety of stylish frames to fit every want and need. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Firmoo was kind enough to let me choose a style and order them for my own use in exchange for a review on the blog. I was so thrilled with the case that came along with my glasses. It's fun and not the same boring black like most cases.<br />
<br />

The cleaning cloth was also included inside my case. It's thin enough to remain tucked in your case all while being there for your cleaning needs when they arise. These glasses are a great fit on my face and make seeing FUN! </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Firmoo offers are a wide variety of eye wear, including sunglasses. Go take a look and find what fits your style! </center>

Thank you, Firmoo, for your time and the great product!</center>

I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack! Can I first just tell you all how much I have MISSED you and the blogging community?! I've recently changed jobs (same company) but it has left me with hardly any left over "free time" that I wasn't just ready to shower and crash in the bed!</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
But, really I have quite a treat for you today. A few weeks ago, I was contacted by Anolee Jewelry and offered to review one of their products. This was honestly one of my favorite reviews to date. The moment I clicked on their website to view their products, I was in love. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I chose to review the EB1007 ETERNITY band for today's post. I fell in love with it's simple, yet timeless look. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<img src="http://www.anjolee.com/Admin/UploadImages/LargeGoldImages/LW_eb1007_w_b_n.jpg" /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I had been looking for awhile for a simple band to wear on my right hand. This ring has made its self a permanent home and I've received so many compliments. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
The ring arrived in a beautiful wooden box with it's on back-light to show off it's beauty. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
If you are in the market for a <a href="http://www.anjolee.com/wedding-rings-and-anniversary-rings/matching-wedding-engagement-diamond-rings-sets" target="_blank">wedding ring set</a>, I encourage you to check out Anjolee jewelry. Please, take a moment and browse their website. I bet you can even find a great Christmas gift! </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Thank you, Anjolee, for allowing me to review your product.</center>

Hello, ladies!! I am so happy to be joining you today with another great recipe link up. In case you missed it, last month <a href="http://kenziespafford.blogspot.com/p/about-me.html" target="_blank">Kenzie</a> and I did <a href="http://www.mississippimrs.com/2014/10/easy-slow-cooker-banana-nut-oatmeal.html" target="_blank">our first healthy recipe link-up</a>. We both had so much that we decided to schedule another post. And here we are!</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
This month, unfortunately, the recipe isn't mine. In fact, it's not even one that I've tried yet. But the name alone just makes my mouth water. </center>

<span style="font-size: xx-small;">Disclaimer: I was sent Eco Friendly Rug Pads in exchange for my review.</span></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
A few weeks ago, I was contacted by <a href="http://www.rugpadcorner.com/" target="_blank">Rug Pad Corner</a> to review their rug pads for use in my home. I was so excited because Brian and I had recently added two new rugs to our living room decor. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
First, we got this great rug on sale at Lowe's in our hometown. The rug was originally $140.00, but we got it on a super sale for $40!! I was skeptical of it at first because it was out of my "normal" style. However, the price was amazing, so we bought the rug and brought it home. After a couple days, I knew the rug was staying right where it was at. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
The second rug we added on vacation this year. I ran across the beauty at TJ Maxx and even though I didn't know where I wanted the rug to be, I knew I wanted it in my home. I proudly brought it home, loved the look of it, and then the trouble began.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">

<br />
These pads have made my rug-life so much more enjoyable. Before the pads, the dogs would move the rugs around as they ran across them. But now, they can run, roll, jump, etc and there are no movements.<br />
<br />
I can only imagine how helpful these will be once we start having kids and there is even more movement in the living room. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
And today, you can get a deal for yourself. Rug Pad Corner is allowing my readers to use the promo code <b>REVIEW15</b> for a 15% discount off your entire order. Isn't that fantastic? <br />
<br />
Thank you, Rug Pad Corner, for the wonderful high quality rug pad. I would recommend the company as a great purchase.<br />

<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Changes are necessary in life. But that doesn't mean they aren't scary at times. I'm not immune to the feeling of uneasiness when it comes to big life changes, but I am in the middle of one right now.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
A few of my readers know, but I work in a bank in my hometown. We are in the middle of a merger with another bank, and my hours are getting longer right now. This is one of those life changes that isn't a bad thing, it's just a new adjustment for me and my schedule. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Unfortunately, my blog is one of the things that is seeing a lot of changes. I don't have spare time to read your blogs on a daily basis anymore. <i>I do still read them</i>, I'm just a few days behind now! And it goes without saying, my posts are getting fewer and farther between. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I know this isn't a permanent thing because blogging is my passion and a big part of my life. I love the friendships that have grown out of our community and the opportunities that I've been blessed to receive. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I just wanted to be upfront and honest with my readers. I don't want anyone to think I am neglecting my comments or e-mails. I love my readers and consider you all real friends. I just am personally drained these days and need some more "down time" than I once needed. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
And this isn't an announcement that I'm giving up blogging. I'm NOT leaving. I'm simply spacing my life out a little more. At the end of the day, I do still have a husband that I owe my time as well. I know you all can understand that and relate. These are just some of the things we bloggers face from time to time in life. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
So, please, take a little time and say a prayer for me. Changes are scary, but this change is GOOD for me and my family. I will find the balance again. I will be back full-time soon. I will not leave this wonderful community. I will serve the Lord and let Him handle my life and commitments right now. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
A big THANK YOU for understanding! </center>
<center>
<br /></center>

But, here is the best part of this trade- They are <u>healthy</u>! Finding a healthy balance starts with a good healthy meal. </center>

<center style="text-align: left;">
When I was deciding what kind of recipe I wanted to share, I knew it was breakfast. A lot of people think by "skipping" a meal, then they are not consuming more fatty foods. But the real truth is that avoiding breakfast is one of the worst things you can do for you body and health.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
By not eating enough, you will leave your body feeling tired and therefore when you do eat, you experience hunger much faster. Also, eating when you wake up triggers your body to break the "fast" that it's been in during sleep. This is a great opportunity for you to get some vitamins.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Another common excuse is "I don't have time" for breakfast between getting kids to school, husbands lunches packed, and not to mention your own string of to do items. I have the solution for that too.</center>

I, personally, love oatmeal. It is such a filling, easy, meal. And the possibilities are endless on all the combinations you can put together. But this is a good, healthy, boost for the body. </center>

Besides, you can make this the night before and have an even less stressful morning! Win, Win!</center>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">It's launch day at <a href="https://www.warbyparker.com/" target="_blank">Warby Parker</a>. Today they introduced us to their newest Corner Collection. </span></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Here is what <a href="https://www.warbyparker.com/" target="_blank">Warby Parker</a> had to say about the new line.</span></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif;"><big>A good frame is all about the shape.</big></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;"></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;"></span><div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif;"><big>The Corner Collection gets its name from our seasonal preoccupation with silhouettes and angles. This time around, we’re experimenting with traditional shapes; think crisp keyhole bridges, sloping brow lines, sharp temples, and straight-edged brow bars in a handsome mix of horn-inspired acetate and stainless steel. Our five new frames—Hutton, Topper, Goodney, Teddy, and Quentin—are totally distinctive and a little bit irreverent.</big></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;"></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;"></span><div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1em;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif;"><big>We didn’t forget color, either. Two new hues, Rhubarb and Quartz, round out an intense palette of autumnal and icy shades, terrific for indoorsy cozy times and leaf-crunching rambles alike. (Even when the temps rise again, they’re still good to go.)</big></span></div>

It's no secret that I love books. I even consider myself a book nerd, so when I was approached by Luke Young to read and review his <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Gone-Girl-Parody-Go-Away-ebook/dp/B00IN74936/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1410744829&sr=8-7&keywords=luke+young" target="_blank">Gone Girl Parody</a>.</center>

<center style="text-align: left;">
Since <a href="http://www.mississippimrs.com/2014/07/gone-girl-book-review.html" target="_blank">I read and reviewed the original Gone Girl</a>, I was definitely interested in this offer. But let me warn you, this book is not for the weak at heart or those opposed to a lot of curse words. Normally, I try to steer away from these type of things in books, but I figured I would give it a shot in order to give an honest review for Mr. Young.</center>
<center>
</center>
<center>
</center>
<div align="left">
This was the first parody I've read in awhile, so it took me a few pages to get into the feel of the book. However, I think Mr. Young did a fantastic job of keeping with the storyline, yet changing what needed to be changed. </div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
There were many parts that I giggled in and some I just sat with my jaw on the floor. Mr. Young kept the beat alive throughout the book, and it was definitely a page-turner. </div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
I want to say thank you to Mr. Young for allowing me to review your book. </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong>He is easily my biggest fan.</strong> I thank God each and every day for bringing this man into my life.<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So, for today's post it's all about him, the Mississippi Mr., answering in his own words. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong>1. If you had a blog, what would the name be and what would you blog about?</strong><br />
DA MANS CAVE.... and it would be about the things I love to do. <em>Aka, a lot of talk about videogames/tools/football/etc.</em></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong></strong> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong>2. If you could live inside any videogame, which would it be?</strong><br />
If I had to "live" inside a video game, it would probably be some kind of sports or hunting game because those are the things I like to do when I can, even though my favorite is Call of Duty. I do most of the killing there. <br />
<br />
<em>Wow, just wow.</em> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong></strong> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong>3. Who is your best player on your fantasy football team this season?</strong><br />
Peyton Manning</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong></strong> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong>4. If you could play for any professional sports team, which would it be?</strong><br />
St. Louis Cardinals </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong></strong> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong>5. What do you typically do with an hour of free time?</strong><br />
That depends on when and where the time is. I'm usually watching TV or playing Call of Duty, or sleeping, just like the rest of the guys in the world. <br />
<br />
<em>He's right.</em> <br />
<br />
Now, wasn't that fun? I love doing blogs that involve Brian. He's my other half, so he needs to be more present around here. I'm thinkingwe need to vlog, right ladies? </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<b><span style="font-size: large;">NO, I AM NOT PREGNANT</span></b>. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I wore them because my other shorts were just plain too small. Sometimes in blog land, bloggers tend to keep a dark shadow over the truth. And then there's me. I'm reality. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
So, yes, I wore maternity shorts because I have gotten too fat for my regular shorts. And it's time I do something about it.</center>
<center>
</center>
<div align="left">
I've always been one of the bigger girls. I wasn't fat by any means, but I was never, <em>ever</em> skinny. I don't want to be "skinny" now. I want to be <strong>healthy</strong>. To accomplish this goal, I have to change some things in my life. I need more exercise, less late night eating, and lots more will power to get all this done. </div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
All my life, I've had something going on that helped keep the weight off, even up until last year when I was preparing for <a href="http://www.mississippimrs.com/2013/11/mr-mrs-white-part-four-ceremony.html" target="_blank">my wedding day</a>. But now, I'm past all that and into my 30's and I think nature is just settling in. But that's not an excuse. </div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
I want to have children one day and be there for a long time for those children. I want to be the wife that can actively be at her husband's side helping him instead of coming up with excuses and staying indoors in the air. </div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
So, today, I'm changing. In fact, by the time this posts I will have already gotten out of bed and exercised. I've figured out that during the day/evening just isn't going to work for me. I get really lazy once I'm home from work. That only leaves mornings. </div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
Am I thrilled to start getting up early and walk/run? Heck no. But my body will thank me. </div>
<div align="left">

<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Top 5 Things I'm Looking Forward To:</strong></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong><span style="font-size: large;"></span></strong> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
o <strong>Anniversary pictures next week</strong>. I can't believe that Brian and I have been<a href="http://www.mississippimrs.com/2013/11/mr-mrs-white-part-four-ceremony.html" target="_blank"> married</a> almost a year! Married life is even more special than I dreamed and prayed it would be for us. I cannot wait to see what the Lord has in store for us in all the coming years. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
o <strong>Cozy sweaters</strong>. All during the summer, I've been cleaning out Kohl's clearance racks of sweaters. They were all $5/each and I could not let a deal like that pass. Now with the temps starting to cool down, I'm anxiously awaiting wearing them!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
o <strong>Coffee</strong>. Anyone who knows me a little, knows I adore a cup of coffee. Going right along with those big comfortable sweaters is a great cup of coffee and a book. Fall brings out so many new flavors to try in your coffee. And don't kill me for this, but a Pumpkin Spice Latte is NOT on my order list. I'm not a fan of pumpkin. Sorry. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
o <strong>Good Books</strong> sometimes get made into movies. Earlier, <a href="http://www.mississippimrs.com/2014/07/gone-girl-book-review.html" target="_blank">I reviewed Gone Girl</a> and loved it. Coming to theaters on October 3 is the movie release. Normally, a movie cannot light a fire to the book, but Ben Affleck is starring in this film. That's a win, win for me! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I'm also going to participate in my sweet blog friend's <a href="http://www.magnoliastreetblog.com/2014/09/introducing-operation-read-your-shelves.html" target="_blank">#OperationReadYourShelves</a> challenge. Go visit Lauren's blog, <a href="http://www.magnoliastreetblog.com/2014/09/introducing-operation-read-your-shelves.html" target="_blank">34 Magnolia Street</a>, for more information.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
o <strong>Booties.</strong> Lately, I've been eyeing some totally cute booties for the upcoming fall/winter. I can't wait to finally wear the one's I've let slip into my shopping bag! ;) Are you going to be wearing booties these year?! I would love to hear your opinion! I am thinking I will wear them with leggings, dresses, and skinny jeans. </div>

</div>
<div align="center">
<a href="http://www.marthakatestratton.blogspot.com/" title="Wednesday's Words"><img alt="Wednesday's Words" src="http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h189/Marthakate09/WednesdaysWords150x150button_zps991a7c7f.jpg" style="border: currentColor;" /></a></div>
<div align="center">
<strong><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">What has God taught you about encouraging others in the blog world / real world?</span></strong> <br />
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
Whew! Can I start with that?! First, let me address the "What has God taught you" portion of the sentence. God has taught me SO many things, but and foremost God has taught me to trust Him in every situation. Lately, I've found myself in the dark on so many decisions / events in life and I've left my full trust in His care. And I feel wonderful. I feel encouraged. </div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
So, what has He taught me about encouraging others? It is vital. It is as necessary as taking the next breath of life. Without Him, we are dying and going to hell. Living a good life doesn't give you that automatic pass into Heaven's gates. We have to earn our keep and God is there pushing us the entire way.<br />
</div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
o <em>"It's scary."</em> You are dang right it's scary. Don't you think God knows you are scared and shy to stand up for Him? He is challenging you, friend.</div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
o <em>"I don't know what to say."</em> None of us do. God will provide the words, you provide the source.</div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
o<em> "I don't know enough to tell anyone else."</em> Honestly, this is the one that gets me the most. For a long time I feared that I didn't have all the answers for a lost soul. And then God smacked me in the face and I realized I'll never have ALL the answers. That's why he wants all His children to come to Him. He is our safe-house. </div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
STOP making excuses. Get out there and tell a friend / family member about God's love for you and I. We are His children. And I for one want all my loved ones with me one day when we are walking into those pearly gates. </div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
So, to answer the prompt, God has taught me to be ME. He has taught me to stand up for what I believe in and not feel ashamed by it. He has taught me that He is my Father and will be there for me and you in every situation in life. He has taught me to pray, and pray hard, for our world and our brothers. <br />
</div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
<strong>God has taught me encouragement and He has shown me encouragement.</strong> </div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
</div>
<div align="left">
What has He taught you? </div>

Fall is approaching. That means that it's time to dust off your boots and pull out your big slouchy sweaters! My entire life I've been dedicated to Summer being my favorite season; however, the last few years have completely changed my mind. Bring on Fall! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
With that said, that meas I get to wear my dark skinny jeans, riding boots, and large comfy sweaters and it's totally cute and acceptable! Win, Win! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
With any good outfit in my book, that means pairing it with some type of leopard and one of my Michael Kors bags. </div>

<span style="font-size: x-large;">Gratitude</span></center>
<center style="text-align: center;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Wednesday is a special day around this blog. I love getting to join in with other Godly women who want to talk about their love for God and the things happening in their lives. Such a sweet day, indeed.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Colossians 2:6-7</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith, just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude.</i></span></div>
<div>
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Psalms 136:1</span></div>
<div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;">Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good, For His loving kindness is everlasting.</span></i></div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
There are so many things in my daily life that I am thankful for, and many things I need to take a minute and thank God for more often. I'm guilty of not giving credit where it's due, and my day to day walk in this life is no different. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
The Lord continues to amaze me with His ways in my life. Brian and I, like every other couple, have faced hard times, but the Lord is always faithful to us. He shows us that He is there even on our dark days. Being a newlywed isn't always easy. Finances are hard. Figuring out how to merge a household is hard. Adjusting to the new way of life is hard. Every day there is another challenge in our path, but we both know that relying on God's promises that we are already taken care of and shouldn't fret.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
With that being said, I like to let Brian know that I'm thankful for him. He always (Jokingly) gets onto me for thanking him for little things. But I know in my heart it goes way beyond a simple gesture. Brian is the man God made for me and every time a "little thing" is done for me, my heart is more at ease with life. God gave me this wonderful man.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
For that, I am full of gratitude.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
