Strong Woman?...Hell Ya I Am!!!

So....I have been meaning to do this post for myself for awhile now. I read a post awhile ago from a friend that talked about how women in particular feel that they have to fit the "perfect" bill all the time. I for sure fall into this category A LOT!! I want to be the perfect wife, daughter, sister, friend, teacher and the list goes on and on. I sometimes get down on myself when I feel that I am just not cutting it. I was sitting in the tub last night reflecting on all I have been through particulary in the last five years and how it has all brought me to the point I am now in my life. I realized the strong woman that I have always been and are continuing to become! I would do it all over again to have the life I have now! I am so incredibly blessed with an unbelievable husband, family, and friends:) I have watched myself as well as many of my friends go through real heartache in the last few years and I am humbled by all of them and at the strength each of them have and have offered me in the times when I needed it most! So for all you awesome women out there...remember your amazing and strong!!

Amen! You are very strong I don't think I would have been as strong as you with everything you've been through and look where you are now!

That just gave me the chills as I read this. Thinking back to all the phone calls and crying and everything...you definitely are SO strong and I'm so proud of you. You are truly an inspiration to me and I totally look up to you!! You always have been and always will be one of the strongest women in my life! I love you!!
