beaufort: day two

feeling much better. and after i wrote that negative post yesterday, i picked up a book my mom in law gave me. the first thing i read: "for as he thinks in his hear, so is he..." proverbs 23:7. joyce meyer then goes on to write... You cannot have a positive life and a negative mind. preach it. i sooo needed that last night!

but i don't want to recap the nothingness that happened here in beaufort. instead, i want to talk about my mom. here is one of the countless reasons why i love her:

we all went out to longhorns a few days before zach left. i sat next to will and zach. will said some funny comment about how i haven't finished school, and i got very, very mad and defensive. i was actually yelling in the restaurant. (and i really am sorry i yelled at you will, if you read this.) so does my mom step in and break it up? oh no, she says, "steph! i am so happy that you can express yourself and be so angry!" haha, but she is right, two years ago i would have heard what will said, internalized it, and beat myself up for days. now i yell. i'm sure there has got to be some middle ground. i should figure that out soon :)


OH MY GOSH: i just witnessed a cockroach crawl into my bag with my Bible and books. f.r.e.a.k.i.n.g.o.u.t. no worries: dad to the rescue. gosh that was so gross.
