Eric and I are in Mexico with Blake, it's been so nice to have him back. I have asked him a zillion questions about his mission, the people, spiritual experiences and how he feels being home. Tonight I went for a run on the beach, I was listening to music and trying to concentrate on getting my speed up, my mind kept wondering off and I found myself thinking about how much I have been blessed. I kinda have check marks in my head everyday of things that need to get done or I check off the things I am grateful for. Just as I was thinking about how much the Lord has blessed me,
I checked off in my head
*BE ALIVE WHEN BLAKE COMES HOME ✔
*BE HAPPY ✔
I looked up in the sky and in perfect formation were birds forming a check mark, I smiled really big and stared at them until they passed, still not believing what I had just seen I turned around looked up and saw nothing but blue skies...where were the birds? They were no where to be found, within seconds they were gone, at that very moment I knew that Heavenly Father was giving me a sign, HE was confirming to me that HE lives, that HE hears me and answers my prayers. My ultimate goal and prayer has always been to be alive and be happy when Blake got home, I can honestly say I can check those 2 off my list. It's so surreal to have him home, so much has happened in 2 years not only in my life but especially in Blake's. I can see the tenderness in his eyes, he is so compassionate and sincere, having a new missionary home is like bringing home a new baby--so much to learn, and I want to soak it all up while I can.
