For my birthday Elder Moon sent me a letter, on the back of the letter included these 3 pictures:






Here's the story behind this. In high school, Spencer and I had our own special "mountain". We would go there all of the time to hike and just get away. Well one day we decided to go hiking and I decided to wear flip flops. I saw a snake, I freaked out, and I fell, literally fell, down the mountain!!! I was hanging on for dear life on a branch. Seriously the scariest and blondest moment of my life! It took Spencer ten minutes to figure out how to get down to me without sending us off the cliff! Yup, welcome to the Blonde Adventures of Amanda

I have found him.. has he found me?

Today I would like to refer to Jalene's story of Him. It goes as follows:

I'm asking you to do something.
I'm asking all of you that have HIM...



the one who sold his car for a least expensive one so he could buy you a ring...
the one who drove many miles through rain, snow, or shine just to see you...
the one who holds you when you cry...
the one who brought you soup when you were sick...
the one who supports your dreams, no matter how unrealistic they are...
the one who jumps on beds, swings on swings, and skips with you...
the one who watches chick flicks with you and secretly likes them...
the one who cleans out the shower drain...
the one who takes out the garbage...
the one who works two jobs so he can support you...
the one who came to see you in your show more than once...
the one who carries you up to bed after you have fallen asleep watching a movie...
the one who changed schools and moved to a completely different city so he could be closer to you...
the one who patiently taught you how to drive a manual transmission...
the one who went out early and scraped the ice/snow off your car...
the one who fixed your car...
the one who drove all the way back home to get you a sweater because you were cold...
the one who killed spiders/bugs for you...

the one who stuck around after things got hard...
the one who no matter what curve balls you threw at him is still by your side...
the one who tells you are the most beautiful girl he's ever seen...
the one who loves your more than anything else in his world...

because
you are worth everything to him...
i bet he would even swim the ocean for you...

he gets it.
he gets that you are a divine woman.
and
he really does love you.


hug him a little bit longer today...
kiss him a little bit harder today...
take in his smell and savor it...
look into his eyes and say, 'thank you for choosing me.'

my dear friends,
you are blessed
to have HIM...
One day, Ill have him too


I know that I have found Him. I just pray that it wont take him very long to realize that he has found me!
