They say life is like a book...it is filled with chapters that defines who we are, and those chapters leads us to a journey, to an end that is yet unknown. I appreciate those who continue to to support me, I dedicate this blog especially to you! I really want you all to get to know me, so I want to take the time to go back a few chapters in "my book"
I have planned and thought of what I have been wanted to with my life for a very long time, but fear held me back. I truly lost myself and I could not see the future. I was living the present but I couldn’t escape no matter how many times I have tried. It took a lot courage for me to end that part of my life, and to be able to finally live. It took years to rebuild what was shattered to become who I am now. The woman who is writing this, is not the girl who was lost in the dark, she sees a brighter future for herself, and her family.
Oh my gosh, how things have changed. Before all of this, I was the girl who barely knew how to cook and now I am one of those women who slaves all day in the kitchen cooking a whole Thanksgiving meal. I was the girl who barely could make it through Home Economics class and now I am a mother who sews princess dresses and makes tutus for her little girl. I never thought I could pick up a hammer but somehow I turned an old entertainment center into a play kitchen. My career as makeup artist turned into another one of my many hobbies. I know some of you have truly seen me grown over the years, and probably could not believe the person I am today...I don't blame you, I can't either.
Tomorrow, I will celebrate my 28th birthday and continue to embrace life, and thank God for all the blessings he has given me.I was given a chance to to continue to live, and learn to laugh and love again. I have a beautiful daughter that has been my inspiration since the day she was born. I am married to a wonderful man that is very supportive and who truly wants me to be happy. I am grateful for my family and friends who have been there since the beginning chapters. I thank you all for giving me the courage and support.
With Love and a Little Shabby History,
Kristine
