Small-Town Girl...

I grew up wanting to be anything but a small-town girl... couldn't wait to get out of this town... After high school, I lived in Jacksonville, Fla. for over four years; got to be the poor, college student (now I'm just poor!) and have the time of my life!

I met the most amazing people there...

Yet it took coming home to realize that this is where I'm supposed to be. I was meant to leave, I guess, so that I would appreciate where I came from. And now, for the first time in my life, I can truthfully say that I am completely happy. I've got the greatest husband, the most amazing friends, and a loving, supportive family... and that's all anyone can ever ask for in life.

I realize that nothing will ever be "perfect" ~ at some point my job will suck, there will be drama in my love/family/friend relationships, etc... but I'm happy.

And that's amazing... Tweet
