So, I have missed a few weeks of reading my usual blogs. Sometimes I won't post my own blogs too often but always stay up-to-date on reading my favs. So, I was catching up on Little Miss Momma and found a guest post from The Wiegands.
WOW.
That's all I could feel inside. Just a huge 'wow' feeling swimming around. I feel instantly attached to Casey. What struck me at first was her love for her littles. I cannot express my love for my little lovely enough in one sentence and she spread love into the words on her blog like I have never seen before. It was honest, deep, and so, SO incredible. It was like she took everything I can't get out and she smeared it across the screen in beautiful scriptures. Then, as if how I was already feeling wasn't enough, I came across her unphasable love for Chirst. I AM SO HAPPY. This is THE blog I've been looking for. Her. She is my inspiration.
Oh, have I mentioned that I had only read 2 posts from her at this point? Yeaaa, she's that good.
To me, Christ is something that isn't negotiable. Jesus is stronger than us all and can lift our lives up when it seems we just can't anymore. He is my ALL and Casey, again, took it from deep in my heart, and it was like I was reading my thoughts. I scrolled down to the bottom of her page and saw a media player. I've been though so many blogs and have never seen this before. I started hearing the first song Priscilla Ahn's, Dream. Call it cheesy if you'd prefer but I actually started to cry. I just looked up and thanked God.
I was thanking him for reasons even besides her blog, but for giving me emotion and allowing people to connect in such incredible ways. He is amazing. I apologize for possibly being repetitive but I am in still in shock. I haven't had such a passionate feeling in so long.

I looked out my window as I was teary eyed, and realized that there is a tree in front of it. I mean, I've noticed the tree before as I've pondered out of the window as I write or browse other things, but I've never really noticed it. I could see the grey sky between the bright green leaves and I could just feel God's blessings. Casey talked about having open hands in her guest post on LMM. I do belive I will be framing one of the quotes very soon. As in, seriously. I have no idea where it was from but it was so powerful and it is exactly who I want to become.
I love women like Casey and Ashley. They're honest and they are so unselfish. In a way, when I first came across LMM I didn't even want to share my new found obession with anyone! I didn't want anyone knowing my new secret weapon to getting mama tips, etc. But then, I saw how she links to who she finds inspiration from and she has guest posts from other amazing people. That showed me that there was no way I could keep her a secret. I wanted people to know about her, and the other great things/people I've found. I have learned so much from her and throughly enjoy the person she seems to be.
I look forward to seeing what these amazing women can continue teaching me. I am excited to see how I am able to change my life through blogs, and of course through our Savior, Jesus Christ.
All I can really say is that I.am.happy.

beautiful post! I agree, it is so important to share what we love, and i too LOVED casey's Open Hands post :)
