I've been doing some scrapbooking lately and I love looking back and reminiscing. I thought it'd be fun to do this on my blog. So today on my blog we're going to go back one year first and then two years.
It was almost one year ago when I wrote about All the Single Ladies.
Two years ago I had some fun with my Triplets!

the sky is everywhere
I wanted to share a few of my favorite quotes from The Sky Is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson, which I recently read.
Grief is a house
where the chairs
have forgotten how to hold us
the mirrors how to reflect us
the walls how to contain us
grief is a house that disappears
each time someone knocks at the door
or rings the bell
a house that blows into the air
at the slightest gust
that buries itself deep in the ground
while everyone is sleeping
grief is a house where no one can protect you
where the younger sister
will grow older than the older one
where the doors
no longer let you in
or out.
When I’m with him,
there is someone with me
in my house of grief,
someone who knows
its architecture as I do
who can walk with me,
from room to sorrowful room,
making the whole rambling structure
of wind and emptiness
not quite as scary, as lonely
as it was before.
If this doesn't change out lives,
I don't know what will - this,
Lennie, is the color of extraordinary.
I look into his sorrowless eyes
and a door in my heart blows open.
And when we kiss,
I see that on the other side
of that door
is sky.
I told him I was looking up at the sky.
He said, "That's a misconception,
Lennie, the sky is everywhere,
it begins at your feet."

All the Single Ladies…
I haven't talked about it before on my blog but The Royal Wedding hubbub has got me thinking a lot lately about relationships and my own “status.”
You may not know this, but I’m a VIP member of the Single Ladies club. I consider myself an expert in the area, seeing as I’ve been single, um…my entire life. I’ve read my fair share of books on the subject [see below], I’ve listened to enough Taylor Swift and watched enough Sex & The City to know how it works.
While I’ve never had a boyfriend [yes, I’m 25 years old and never had a boyfriend], I’ve had my share of guy friends [gone wrong] and heartbreak. If your definition of a date is going somewhere [dinner, movie, event] with a member of the opposite sex [who also pays for you], then I’ve been on a few of those. Although, I don’t know if the dude[s] would consider it “dating.” But then again, I don’t think they considered a lot of things regarding our relationship[s]/friendship[s]. Not my point…whatever.
How many of you girls, women watched the Royal Wedding? I wasn’t able to, but Heather gave me a full rundown [see her blog post HERE]. It was like a fairytale. I feel safe to say that it was every girl and woman’s dream. Who doesn’t want to be a princess? To have your prince come for you and live happily ever after? Women have the innate desire for their own Prince Charming…or whatever version of your dream guy.
It says in Genesis 3:15-17 [NIV], “And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.” To the woman he said, “I will make your pains in childbearing very severe; with painful labor you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.” To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’ “Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat food from it all the days of your life.”
We were created with this desire and I, for one, can speak of its tremendous presence in my own life. I recommend reading Captivating [see below] to learn more about and better understand some of the deepest desires of a woman’s heart.
I constantly struggle with this desire and turning it over to God. Psalm 37:4 [NIV] says, “Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart.”
Easier said than done. I’m not really looking for advice in this. I’ve heard it ALL before. I’ve got the head knowledge. It’s a matter of reminding my heart from time-to-time. For example, I’ve heard this many times, but I easily forget that being married doesn’t make you happy it just makes you married. A person [man or woman] needs to be comfortable and confident in whom they are before any kind of relationship can work.
Carrie: After he left, I cried for a week. And then I realized I do have faith: faith in myself, faith that I would one day meet someone who would be sure that I was the one.
Carrie: But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous.
I’m lucky that I have such great examples in my life of what true love and real relationships are supposed to be. At the same time, it’s hard when there seems to be couples together all the time. It’s one of those things that stands out to you more when you’re in that situation. That’s where I’m at right now. Everywhere I turn there’s someone else with a new boyfriend or girlfriend, people getting married, having babies [well, that’s part of my job] and so on. It’s in my face constantly! I’m not saying I want to get married and have babies tomorrow. I also know that any relationship isn't going to be perfect because we're all humans. But I do long for the day when it will be my turn.
"The alone people don’t want to hear about the together people." –Grey’s Anatomy
Carrie: I hate it when you're at a dinner party and they all look at you like you're a-
Charlotte: Loser?
Miranda: Leper?
Samantha: Whore?
Someone recently told me that you’re never lonely if you surround yourself with good people. I’m so thankful for my wonderful family and friends, especially my girlfriends. I can share my heart with them and know that they’ll accept me and love me know matter what.
Carrie: Maybe our girlfriends are our soulmates and guys are just people to have fun with.
I’ve made my share of mistakes and turned to guys because I was lonely [and depressed]. At the time I convinced myself that even if this guy wasn’t the one, he was a friend and having someone to hold you was better than feeling alone. Or it was better than feeling alone by yourself. Long story short, I’m in the same place, as far as being alone, and now I have one less friend.
What do you do when you feel like that? It’s a process, turning it over to God instead of taking matters into your own hands. I can’t dwell on my “status”. I need to focus on living and being ME.
I’m not quite sure what else to say. It’s hard to translate what your heart feels into words. To all you other Single Ladies out there, I’ll be praying for you. I know I’m not the only one who feels like this. I know what it’s like to be thethird fifth seventh wheel. We have the same hearts’ desire: we want to be loved.
I’d like to give a shout out to Beyoncé for giving all of us Single Ladies an anthem we can dance to with our girlfriends.
Here’s a list of a few books I’ve read on the subject of relationships [or lack thereof]. Please let me know if you have questions about any of them or would like a suggestion.

I want to be beautiful
Make you stand in awe
Look inside my heart,
and be amazed
I want to hear you say
Who I am is quite enough
Just want to be worthy of love
And beautiful
