What I think about being stripped

{Doin' what I do!}

Recently while I was out taking some alone time I chuckled to myself as I thought and realized that once again I'm being refined....stripped. Recently I've lost many of the comforts my life once had.
 Do I love it...not exactly no, but I love what I know is coming out of it. I can already see it.

 Imperfectly Perfect Grace started because a few years ago I went through a pretty rough time where housing and money was scarce...Like I had no house and no money! What that time taught me was to appreciate the smallest of blessings and more so to appreciate my time and the people around me. 

Well I guess that I needed to learn this lesson on a deeper level, and I am. At a time when parts of my heart are broken and in the process of healing, my heart is more full than it's ever been because I'm choosing to see those "small" things of life as
 THE THINGS of life.

Crazy things like nail polish, birds chirping, people smiling, sunny skies, yummy food make my heart sing! 
A phone call or a text message, an email from a friend fills me. Love fills me. Seeing love, giving love and experiencing love puts me over the top! 

The list of "things" that I "need" from life continues to dwindle. 
Just give me a way to love and be loved and give me people. 
If I get a cute outfit somewhere in there, that will be extra awesome! 

You want the honest truth... if you're going by my bank account balance I'm b-roke! Like no money broke...
but my heart is so rich! Corny, maybe? ...but I'm full and I'm thankful, so thankful! 

I shared with you recently that cooking is something that I love doing! I love it, it's my time to create! 
Last week I cooked two yummy things just for me. Enchaladas, which you would have seen if you follow
 me on Instagram, and these yummy stuffed peppers! 

And now let's move on to this...
We all love our kids. I'm no different. Ohh but lately, I'm relishing in the tiny things more and more. Jay's first smile of the morning, hearing the way he cracks up when he sees something fun on T.V, he loves laughing! Watching his big blue eyes express things as he's telling me a story. Listening to him read to me or tell me how cute a baby is! 
 I love being with this kid, every single day. Each moment. I love it.
