Something I have wanted for a long time...

A tattoo.

I know, I know. Why in the world would an almost 31 year old single mom want a tattoo?? I just do! I like the pain. No really, I want a small cross on my foot.It will be a symbol of my Faith in Jesus Christ. I am scared of the pain, but the way I see it is if I was able to give birth, I can take the pain! Plus it is going to be quick because it is only a small cross. So if any of my "many" readers have any advice for me, please let me know. I will post pictures of my new addition when I actually muster up the courage to do it.

Have a wonderful weekend!!! Try to stay cool in this Alabama heat!!

My heart is wide open...

I have learned and I am still learning every day, how important it is to have GOD as the center of your life. Everything on Earth is temporary. Your relationship with Christ is what you will have for an eternity. My heart and eyes opened today, when a friend talked to me about his walk with Christ and his girlfriend. He seems to have the right idea about how a relationship should be. When you like someone, you want to talk to and spend time with that person all the time... well at first anyways :). But during that time of "infatuation" and that feeling of "happiness" to always feel the need to in some way be with that person, your walk with Christ becomes faded (in some cases). And I am referring to myself in this message. Most importantly you have to make sure that the other person has a good relationship with Christ too or I promise you, there will be problems. No matter what happens in your life, Jesus Christ will ALWAYS be right by your side. People come and go during your life. People let you down and lift you up. But GOD is always there to hold your hand and listen to you. GOD is my best friend and my walk with him becomes greater everyday. I know that I need to spend more time with him and read The Word more. With all of this said, yes I one day want to find my soul mate on Earth. I want more children and I want to have a companion. But right now, GOD and Cooper are my priorities!! I have to be smart with all of my decisions and have to be a good role model for my sweet son. I have to live Christ-like for my son to walk in my footsteps. I know there will be struggles. I know that I will fail sometimes. I know that my son will always love me, because I am his mommy and I will always be there for him. Okay, here come the tears. I have 100% faith that GOD will always be in our lives and that HE WILL PROVIDE!!!
