Now that I'm All Grown Up

    One of the things I love about being a "grown up," is being able to live out my childhood fantasies. Despite the hardships, there is so much to smile about. I always dreamed of growing up and getting married to a wonderful and godly man who loves me. I smile because I now have a face to put in that dream.

I had fantasies of grocery shopping and coming home to a cute little kitchen to put everything away. I fantasized having a place of my own to decorate, in order to make my own version of home. I thought of the day when I would get to go on dates with my spouse like my mom and dad always have. Now I smile because my dreams have come true-I'm living the life of the "grown up" that for a while only lived in my fantasies.
    Oh, and one more thing-this morning I went to a little outdoor market to buy some fresh produce and flowers, and I told Steven that growing up, I had always wished to have fresh flowers wherever I lived. So, of course dreams do come true. =)
