...GOD IS IN CONTROL!!!
I know that it has been nearly two months since my last post. Lets do a quick recap of the last two months...I'm missing four teeth, molars....I now have braces, YIKES!!!!....my cousin has come back from Iraq, a good friend is going to Iraq...I have fought numerous times with my parents...Brooke has gotten more teeth....AND I HAVE AN AMAZING PERSON PRAYING FOR ME DAILY!!!
Okay, let me tell you what I spend a little portion of my day doing...reading milblogs...I will post some of the ones that I enjoy most. I've never really been exposed to the military growing up, because no one in the family protects OUR freedom. I've learned more about the life in Iraq, and the military by reading these "blogs." Its good to see that good things really do happen there, but the media only focus' on who died that day, or which car bomb went off, or who was struck by and IED. These men are focused on not only protecting our freedom here back home, but opening new possibilites to those over there. Children are going to school in new schools because our Military has built them, they've had a successful election because of the overthrowing of Saddams regime. Some of those people are seeing their first bandaid..something you and I take for granted. You can read any of the blogs that I enjoy and realize that those men aren't only protecting our freedom, but they are creating freedom and endless possiblilities for the future of Iraq. How amazing is that?!
Yesterday, the man that is soon to be going to Iraq informed me that he now has a baby....WHAT?! WHY THE HELL HAVEN'T YOU TOLD ME SOONER, AND OH YEA...MERIDETH IS GOING TO BE MAD...VERY MAD!! Those are the things that ran through my mind. This man and I were talking about getting together when he returned from AIT training, not anymore I'm afraid. I have a baby myself, and one he is a 19 yr old dad, kind of scary, considering I had just turned 20, 2 months and 4 days before the birth of Brooke. God is truly amazing. All the prayers that *John has been praying are working, I can see them. They are in full force and God is doing a lot of fixing in my life. He is answering a lot of my questions, because I AM A FIXER!! Two I don't think I could be with a man who has a newborn. I've done my raising of Brooke, pretty much alone, and I'm not ready to take that responsiblity on again. Sorry, don't want to raise someone else's children. I would potentially like to marry a man who does or doesn't have children. If they do, I would prefer they were over the age of two.
I know that there is a man for me out there, but is he hiding under a rock somewhere...I'M RIGHT HERE...COME FIND ME!!! God will show both he and I the way to each other, I have faith in the almighty Father.
