I'm your typical girl.
Yes, i have a list of things i want in a guy:
I like a guy that is creative. spontaneous.
tall. funny. confident. honest.
athletic. charming. thoughtful. attractive.
hardworking. intelligent. talented.
but really,
I want to marry a guy like this.
Someone that cares more about others than themselves.
Or someone that follows a lifestyle taught by this man.
Enjoys their family's company, and treats his mom and sisters right.
Who will be good with kids.
I want to marry someone like my dad.
Someone that doesn't mind becoming a human jungle gym once in a while for these loves of my life.
And in turn, I am working on being exactly that.
creative. spontaneous.
tall. funny. confident. honest.
athletic. charming. thoughtful. attractive.
hardworking. intelligent. talented.
but mostly-
someone that cares more about others... even those you don't think about at first.
I will love my own family.
work towards being a fantastic mom, by emulating my own.
If i expect a gentleman, i will be a lady.
i will try my hardest to always be the person i want to marry. to give my full 100%.
i will love you with all of my being. for eternity. there may be times that we don't agree, but that doesn't mean i won't love you.
right now i am preparing to serve a mission.
so that means that you'll have to wait at least another 18 months.
but i will come back from this experience so much a better person.
in fact, i'm a little selfish in my desires to serve. more than anything i'm so excited to serve the Lord by bringing his children to Him.
but a little tiny piece of me knows that i need this experience for me.
so that i can learn to do hard things. to let myself serve completely.
and then when i'm done, i'll finally be ready to get married.
let's just hope i come home in one piece!
love, me
ps- i'm still praying for you.
