So much and more.


This morning as I was flipping crepes in my kitchen, watching my Husband paint and my son crawl like a mad boy all over the house. I had a mini flash back on time. The ones that make you appreciate every part of your existence up to that point. Do you know the kind?
Well, I stood there, almost letting my crepe burn. But thinking. Thinking of everything that brought me to that specific stand still in time. I then realized that God has given me so much and more.
I still remember on October 25th, 2008 ( yes, a day before my world fell apart ) that I had everything I wanted. I was so scared that something was going to take it away because I felt it was perfect. Looking back now, it was anything but perfect. Struggling to make ends meet, and various other issues..
But I still felt it was perfect.
October 26th, 11 PM at night, I was about to find out that perfect didn't last.

On the crazy road of the last two years. I've gone crazy ( yes friends, if you are a true friend to this day, thank you.. you got to meet the Jess who was absolutely crazy ), I've moved to a different province, I got pregnant and then a year later I married the man of my dreams.
But, although that road was anything but perfect, God knew. It turned my world into a kind of perfect that I thought I would never want. But, it was exactly what I needed.
God has given me a beautiful HEALTHY baby boy, a amazing husband who truly is so patient with me and loves me for me! A place to live, family and friends.. and most importantly a relationship with him.
I know life isn't perfect, and I'm definitely not saying that.. I do have my off days.. but this is more than I could ask for.. and I'm just so at awe of what I've been given.

Anyways, I should go for now. My 'amazing husband' is in the next room cursing about painting..

Love, Jess!
