Faith in the Moving

I will be 28-years old in a month and half-ish. I will celebrate my 6th wedding anniversary this summer. I don't roll well with change and my default is emotional. I think too hard and I laugh too loud. I'm still so naive and I still can't really pick up on sarcasm. I love fictional … Continue reading wonder

Blog-tember Challenge // Day 6: What I’m Listening To

Blog-tember Challenge // Day 5: A Memorable Birthday
I have enjoyed many memorable birthdays. For my 18th birthday, my parents and sister threw me a surprise party (my cousin wrote me a song!).
