curves and skinny jeans

today was a complete shopping day with the little sister.. as i was going through the stores in out mall.. i became very frusterated. EVERYTHING seemed to be made for anyone who is 110 pounds or less.. and as we all know i am nowhere near that. so i came to notice my self esteem just being shattered as i tried one piece of clothing after another. where did this come from. i'm usually very good at keeping my head up and not letting things like size bother me. but when all you see around you is girls who can fit into one pant leg of my jeans what is there to think.

so with a lil help from the sister and a couple of other special people (dassah and hannah) i found the perfect outfit and a great fitting pair of jeans. thanks alot
to them.

heres what i say. who cares what the tag says on your clothes. as long as you feel comfortable in them and nothings hanging out or being flashed go for it. of course keep it appropriate, but be comfortable in your body. and if there's an area where you'd like to improve than fix it. but of course dont go over board and do anything un healthy. just because im more curvier or wear a size that the majority of the people my age are wearing doesnt make me any less of a person. embrace your curves just dont hug them to tight i dont want to see them.. :) be happy to have a figure. after all you could have been a guy..(laugh) well this is where i go.. may your story go on..


p.s skinny jeans are NOT for this girls curves.. Happy fourth of july.. and michaela have a wonderful birthday!!

Casita Mujeres.

I havent written much on my trip to Honduras and I'm not exactly sure why. Here is my first attempt. The one outreach that sticks out in my mind and I'm sure everyone else's was when we went to CASITA MUJERES. It was a "home" for young girls from the ages of maybe 6-18. On this day Pastor Chace asked me if I would give my testimony. Now in my head I'm thinking "are you serious" but I of course say yes. This is my first time ever to give the story of what made me who I am today. That whole day I was so nervous, anyone who knows me also knows that I'm not one to really get nervous about anything. Just the thought of exposing who I am to a whole crowd of people including those from church and my siblings, it just made me feel vulnerable. Our bus is driving on down the road to our destination when we notice a traffic jam. Great it's already hot and sweaty and now there is no movement for the air to circulate through the bus. I guess it was exactl...

Insecure

For various reasons that don't directly deal with me, I have come to think upon a few things. I am speaking from a female perspective but I come to assume that insecurities seem to stem from the same type of problems. Everyday we deal with people who have a huge impact on us personally, people that we love, people who's opinions matter. When their persepective of us has been scewed in anyway we tend to take it to heart. It's human nature to take their words and feel them deeper than they should be. So when they speak of or to us in a way thats negative we will begin to perceive ourselves in a negative manner. Or when we come to find that those persons have done you wrong we begin to think there must be something I'm missing. Each and everything they do affects us. If a person cheats, we think; something MUST be wrong with us. If a person lies to us, we wonder why we were not worth the truth. What could we have done to prevent them from going off and doing us wrong? They...

i am not so naive

Sometime I wish people would learn not to underestimate me. When I want to get somewhere or get something accomplished I am very capable of doing so. Of course there are always limitations and set backs but I know how to push through it. I lived in a time where our money was tight and we had very little but we made it through.. Just because I am where I am today and don't look like i have ever had to fight my way out of the bottom doesn't mean anything. Looks can and are deceiving. Of course I don't believe in telling what most would call a "sob" story. I am not one who looks for a pity party.. But please know that I do know what it is like to go without in many aspects. I embrace that time in my life and it has taught me to be thankful of what I have. I will never forget it but I also will never return. Was it by choice and my own doing?? Of course not, who chooses to go without? Being born into it is one thing.. but staying in it is another. We all make decision...
