My 5 Favorite Words

Mommy- It's the word that any woman can hear and they melt. The first time you hear it out of the mouth of your baby is one of those moments like when you hear, "will you marry me?" Time stands still and you are forever inducted into the proud sisterhood of mommys. Mama is nice too. You become something bigger than yourself. The word can really have no true definition it's all things wrapped into one being. I love hearing it and proud to be one to my boys!

beautiful-This word is another one that can have many meanings to everybody. What is beautiful to me will not be beautiful to another. But anyone can find beauty in anything. I'm not a huge Christina Agulera (sp?) fan but I love her song "beautiful" If only everybody would feel this way no matter size, race, religion....the world would be a happier place. Beauty to me can be as simple as a rose or as complex as the image I saw when Philip and Michael were born. When someone tells you that you are beautiful, take it and love them for it. You may not belive this of yourself but to that person it is true. And I love that I am beautiful to one person and am starting to belive it.

family-this word can have no boundries. I have my "blood" family the ones that I have been blessed to share a physical bond with. Then I have my extended family, the ones that I hand picked to be apart of me. I also have a much larger family that I will be apart of when we all get to heaven, most of my family and adopted family are included in this large family as well! But most of this family I haven't even met yet! I have a military family that has supported me during many times in my life. We have adopted Grandmas, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Sisters, Brothers, Moms, Dads. I love to surround myself with family. It is one of my basic needs. I love that Brent and I have started our family and that the boys will grow up in such a large family.

happy-Have you ever noticed that you CANNOT say this word with out smiling???? Try it! It's the best word to say! It makes you happy. That's why It's one of my favorites!

faith-I love this word because it makes the unseen visible through a word. Yes, you can have faith in a person to uplift them, but I'm talking about the faith of God and His Son. To my knowledge no one has ever seen either in my life time. Christ walked the earth many years ago and was seen by many and they still didn't have faith that what He said was true. And sad to say that 2000 years later it's still happening. But I have faith that all things will come to pass. And that the unseen will be made visible. I love that you can have the faith the size of a mustard seed and still move mountains! I love that! It's awsome, can you imagine what GREAT faith could do?? Faith: one of my favorite words!

What are some of your favorite words and why?? Do we share some favorite words?
