The last three years of my life held many trials and tribulations. The last year especially..... questioning God's plan for my life. There had been a lot of personal growth and realization of who I am. Learning about what I want in my life and what I want out of a partner.
As I started this blog, I wanted to bring humor to my tumultuous dating experiences. If I couldn't laugh at it, I'd cry. I found comfort in knowing I wasn't the only one going through a rocky road of relationships and dating! Never did I think my journey for Mr. Right would end so soon (hmmm, was I being pessimistic....?!?!?!), and I didn't think I could be this happy.
As blogging about bad dates comes to a close.... this is not the end. Only a chapter in my life that has closed, as I begin a new one. The best is yet to come!!! I will continue writing on love, life, and family... it will have to be in a form other than "prince charming is a jerk" (hahahahaha). A title more fitting for the future adventures!
I want to thank you for all the support and encouragement I received from the blog followers, friends, and family. If you are one that is still running around searching for Mr. Right and only finding Mr. Jerk...... please remember this is all but a chapter in your life too. Hang tough, your time is coming...... and I promise it will be when you least expect it!
“Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.’” Matt.17:20
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding."-Proverbs 3:5-6
Goodnight and God Bless!

Ladies and Gentleman... I have found Mr. Right
Ladies and Gentleman... I have found Mr. Right!
My blogging has been on hiatus because I have been dating a wonderful man. All my time has been consumed in this whirlwind romance. I have found my prince charming and he is not a jerk! :) As soon as I declared I was taking a break from dating.... I agreed to one last date. The date was with a guy I had been friends with for 2 years. He pursued me back then, but my head was in the sand! Persistence finally paid off... even if it was 2 years later! Actually, the timing couldn't have been better. Two years prior, we were both not ready to take on the kind of love this relationship had to offer. Now, we had matured, experienced life and had our heads straight! We now have the capacity to love at a deeper level. When people say "timing is everything"........ it couldn't be more true. God orchestrated the perfect timing for us.
We began dating and ending up going on a date every consecutive night for a month! I can't believe I am writing about a fabulous man that has entered my life and swept me off my feet. I never thought this would happen so soon. What an exciting time! Our desires, goals, and dreams are all in line with one other. This is someone that I am comfortable being myself around and he "gets" my humor and goofy side. This is someone that I can not wait to hear from and see. He is a good 'ole country boy. A gentleman.... He is kind, loving, affectionate, funny!, sincere, driven, patient, and most importantly, a Christian. A man I see myself spending the rest of my life with........

What is Love???
I have been on many dates.... the good, the bad, the ugly ;). As I sat back and analyzed what it was I was looking for, I asked myself.... What is love? What does it look like?
This is exactly what I have finally found.....
Love is.... unconditional, butterflies in the pit of your stomach, constantly smiling and giddy, daydreaming about him throughout the day, counting down the time until you can see him again, laughing with him, being goofy together, doing simple things together, sitting and talking for hours, losing your concentration, exploring new things together, anxiously awaiting his phone call, a best friend, a shoulder to cry on when you had a rough day, feeling lost when he isn't around, missing him before he's even left, snuggling.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres - 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
This is exactly what I have finally found.....
