When in situations of stress we wonder if there is anymore to give. We can be comforted to know that God, who knows our capacity perfectly, placed us here to succeed. No one was foreordained to fail. Let us remember that we were measured before and were found equal to our tasks. When we feel overwhelmed, let us recall the assurance that God will not over-program us; he will not press upon us more than we can bear.

Middle Name Tag

So my friend Tagged me and now I guess I want to do this... The point is to put your middle name and then for each letter, tell something about yourself. My middle name is a strange one that no one can every pronounce right.. it's Marlyn. And no it's not like the fish!

M-Movie goer! I LOVE movies. I look forward to them all the time! We have netflix and I LOVE to look at our movie cue and decide what I want to watch next. Whenever a movie comes out that I loved I have to buy it and it drives Todd NUTS! I love all sorts of movies from fantasy to romance. My favorite movies are Disney movies such as, The Emperor's New Groove and Enchanted.

A-Anal! I can be very anal about a lot of different things. I like things the way I like them and it can really bug me when someone changes things up on me. It's been something that I've really had to work on since I've been married and it can make things very difficult to say the least. It's a very good thing that Todd is so mellow and just takes it for what it is.

R-rigorous eater! I love food.. I love lots of food! It's a definite weakness of mine. I could eat a lot of food when I'm not pregnant and if I could afford it. It sometimes gets me down now that I'm pregnant that I can't eat as much as I used to, but then again, I've lost 15 pounds... so I'm not complaining! My favorite foods are the fatty ones... Italian and Mexican. I absolutely love the Olive Garden and many different Mexican food places. I love sweets as well! If I could eat chocolate cake all day every day... I probably would. My favorite cereal of the moment would have to be waffle crisp and I really love home grilled hamburgers. I think it's time for a barbecue...

L-Lover of babies... and Todd! ;) Ever since I've realized that it's time in my life that I can have kids, I can't get enough of them. It's kind of sad because a lot of times, the babies don't like me which makes me worry a little bit when I'm carrying one in my belly, but I'm sure it'll be ok! I love to go to church on Sunday and sit behind a family with a little toddler or baby. They are so fun to play with and so cute and cuddly. It's only gotten worse since Todd and I were married and his love for children has rubbed on to me. I love sitting with Todd and holding a baby and dreaming of our up and coming bundle of joy. Todd is so wonderful and I honestly couldn't ask for a better husband in the whole world!

Y-young. I have always been younger than all of my friends and people that I hang out with. I have always been teased about how young I am and how young I was for getting married and yatta yatta yatta... I've heard it all. It has always really bugged me, because I can't do anything about the fact that I'm young. I guess I'm just mature for my age!

N-news watcher. Every morning when I wake up, I turn on the news to listen to while I'm getting ready. I have to know what is going on in our world! I love watching and being updated on the crazy people out there and what I should watch out for. My favorite news station is the morning news "2 News" team. They are so funny and they just make me laugh. Their special interest guy, Casey, is my favorite. I think he's one of the funniest people out there! I enjoy his wit. I also love to read up on the news when I've been at work for a really long time and have nothing to do! I find it interesting to be more informed of those around me...

Ok so now I'm going to tag other friends... such as Jamie, Brittany, Janell, Katelyn, Heidi, and Kamie. If you don't have a middle name, use your maiden name because some of you moved your last name to your middle name anyway!
