Today...

There's a lot I could say but I think I want to just talk about how today I feel beautiful and humbled.

I have stretch marks, a "mommy tummy", shirts that won't fit, pants that are too small, a mind filled with cravings to eat nothing but the "junk". I have glasses that are crooked, teeth that need a dentist, toes that need polish, legs that need shaving. I have troubles with milk blisters (that hurt like hell), feet that hate socks, extraordinarily long hair that sheds and roseca all over my face. I have weird medical issues, "chicken skin", and squinty eyes and an interesting nose! I have eye brows that I don't care to pluck and celiac disease, the list can certainly go on...

But today I feel beautiful. Today I feel like God made me in His image and all those things are apart of who I am and I choose that I will embrace it all. I choose to love who I am in all the glory of who I get to be in Christ and that's an honour. That's grace. I am saved. I am worthy. I am a sinner. I am a mother. A wife. A teacher. I get to live this exact life in all the chaos it brings and in it I get to decide how to live and who to be and I chose to be me. In surrendered faith to the God who created me and gave me this life.

Feel beautiful today.
