I'm OK!

It's been quite a while since I have last blogged. I have added some "generic" entries where I have to just fill in the blanks, but I thought it was time to add an update on just our daily lives.

Life is good. I was driving home from school today and it was just beautiful outside. We received some much needed rain and the temps dropped and it didn't feel like a sauna anymore. I had my window down and my hair blowing. I had some great summer music on the radio and it just got me thinking how blessed I am. I have my health, my husband, my girls, and my family. I have friends, a home, and a community we love! I have the opportunity to go to school to follow my dreams. I have a husband that respects me and daughters who want to do things with me. Again, Life is good!

I have been thinking alot lately about who I am. Not just, Amy Burrow, but really looking at who I am inside. I can happily say that I am OK with me. I have not always been this way. I have had days that I longed to be someone else, have something else, do something different, or just wanted more...it's selfish and basically it's sinful. Lately I think God is working on me and giving me steps to learn to be happy and content. I used to hate the fact that I am shy in unfamiliar places, but truthfully, who isn't? Some people just handle it better, it's ok for me to take a while to open up. God gives me the people he wants me to be with and around. I am ok with the fact that I am not competitive, I really don't care if the girls (or me) for that sake are on the "winning team". As long as fun is the goal, all is well. I am ok with the fact that I have been going to school for over a year and don't have a job yet. I know with all my heart that God has something planned for me and I might have to wait a year. I'm so OK with where I am right now and that is such an amazing feeling!
