Okay, I’m THAT Girl

Jump to Comments

So, last week one of my facebook status’ was, “stepping into something scary, but it’s good for me”. I gave my mom a list of tasks that she could help me with for the business. At the top of the list was “check into the bridal show”. I’m thinking … she’ll call, find out the cost, and the steps I must go through the get a booth. Yeah, she calls me frantically and says, “I called the woman and she said there were only two photography booths left so I signed you up.” HOLY FREAKIN’ COW! I said – check into it – not sign me up without asking me first because I might have a heart attack right here and now. After I took a few deep breathes and calmed myself down I began to get a bit excited. I’m one of those people who sometimes needs a kick in the behind to get things really rolling. I must admit, if it had been up to me I probably wouldn’t have signed up and I’d be that much further behind on realizing my dream. My mom seemed to realize what a big deal this is for me and when I got home that afternoon here is what I found…

and a note that read…

I plopped down into my desk chair and the biggest smile I’d ever felt on my face was instantly there.  Mom knew exactly how to make those nerves disappear and the excitement for all the possibilities to bubble up.  I don’t think I’ve ever loved getting flowers so much in all my life.  Sorry, guys.  I’m super duper thankful for my mom giving me that gentle nudge and for cushioning the fall.  Love you, mom!

So yeah, I’m THAT girl.  The one who loves to get flowers and they pretty much can make my day.  Hint for all you amazing guys who are beating my door down.  JK (that’s Just Kidding for all of you who may not know the whole text language we’ve developed during the 21st century)

P.S.  Don’t ever pass up the opportunity to make someone smile until their eyes squeeze shut.

P.S.S.  Come see me at the bridal show in January!

Happy Monday!
