A friends recent blogging revival has inspired me to start blogging again...we'll see how long it lasts this time.
I didn't go home for Easter because we only had Friday and Monday off and it seemed too complicated to try to figure out how to get home for four days. So, I went home with Sila(Lisa) instead. It was a lot of fun! Her family is super sweet and made me feel right at home. They do a lot together. They eat lunch and dinner together, they go for walks together, they play games together, they watch movies together, etc. Every day I was there we did something where we got to spend time with each other. It was so much fun! I got to talk to and bond with Sila a lot. It was fun to have a sister for the weekend. It was interesting, too, to see how they functioned. Everybody's family is so different and it was cool to be a part of something so entirely different from my own life. I really enjoyed my time with them.
I have been thinking and praying a lot about my future life, especially my future husband. I am realizing more and more everyday just how special and intimate I want our relationship to be. Sure, there isn't anybody now, but I have faith that God will put us together in his perfect timing. In the mean time, I've been learning what personality traits I want him to have and developing those traits in myself. We had a chapel speaker two weeks ago who talked about this. He said that the first traits we should look for in a partner are the fruits of the spirit, so that is what I am starting with. I have a list in the back of my quiet time journal that I refer to and have made a commitment to work on one every day. When the time comes, I want to be the best girlfriend, fiance, and wife that I can and in order to do that I need to start working on myself now.
More to come later (maybe). Right now, it's dinner time! ^_^
