Hardy Happenings

Today The Pioneer Woman is having a giveaway on her blog and the only thing you had to do to enter was make a comment on the post answering one simple question......

“How different is your life now than how you’d always pictured it?”

Now, I have thought of this before. MOre along the lines of talking with my girl friends over wine glassees and junk food just comparing life stories. BUt this day, this question, although the same as before really struck my in a new capasity. I actually could have wrote so much more and so many details comparing the life I know to the life I expected, becoming the life I love. But I felt like I would probably seem kinda koo-koo to give my life story in ansewer to this little question hoping to win the wonderful prize. So, this is what I cam up with....and I am very content to have typed it up with ease and not a moments pause to think about what I could have had, knowing that I love what God placed in my lap.

I thought I would be a world traveled stay at home mother of 2 boys and a little girl living in a 2 story house with lots of beautifully landscaped property for us to have lots of picnics and parties in the pool with friends and family. But I have it so much better than that! In the grand scheme of things, my little 3 bedroom home on half acre of land with my little boy and sweet husband turned out a bigger blessing than I could have ever imagined.
Thanks God for making the decisions for me!
