#SheReadsTruth

My typical morning consists of waking up, putting on a pot of coffee, jumping in the shower, then cuddling on my couch with my coffee, my bible and my laptop before I get ready for the day. I usually would search around until I found a verse that I liked, and then would read the entire chapter in order to fully understand the verse. That's when I stumbled upon She Reads Truth. I'm not sure if you guys are familiar with the #SheReadsTruth daily devotional site, but if you aren't, you should be.

Short, sweet and to the point, these daily devotionals are perfect for the working, student, wife, busy as a bee mom. That's what appealed to me the most. I am able to spend some time with the Lord, and keep the lesson in my head all day as inspiration. You can go to the site  shereadstruth.com and immerse yourself into the lovely artwork, sleek design of the site and beautifully written devotions.

Right now, they are doing a study on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd John. Come and join this group of worshipping women who are all just trying to be more like Christ!

Updates!

Hi Guys! 

I'm here today to share a few things. 

1/ Levi is done with Speech Therapy! He jokes, he has his opinions, he asks questions; it is beautiful to hear him talking so much. He is going to have a teacher that comes by the house to make sure his speech and development is staying on track. His therapist said it's time to start preparing him for school. SCHOOL?? HE'S STILL MY BABYYYYYYY!!!! I thought when she brought it up. How can I give my baby to the schools and trust them to take care of him? How do people do that? I guess that's when parents decide to home school. Gerson and I both went to public schools so Levi will attend them as well. Unless we are financially able to put him in private school. 

2/ School is going ok. Not much of an update there. I'm still trying to hang in there and graduate. I don't like to think of my projected graduation date.. its so far away I begin to get discouraged. 

3/ I started a new job! No more Target! I work as a Leasing Agent at an apartment complex. There are pros and cons to this job. For example, anyone that knows me knows that I love people. I meet new people everyday! It's wonderful. People from all walks of life; young, old, black, white, working, not working, married, single, etc. That is one of the things I love the most. One of the things I don't like is the people! (I know you're probably confused but bare with me!) They like to call the office and get mad at me when things are wrong in their apartment. It's not my fault, and I cannot even begin to even know the right tool to pick up in order to fix it. They get angry when I give them the same ol' response "I'll let maintenance know for you." I'm not sure what exactly they want me to do. I get curse words thrown at me at least once a day. I always doubted when I would see signs around the complex that I live in that say things like "We Love Our Residents!!" But its really true! I love all of the residents  that live at the apartment complex I work in. (You'd have to in order to take it all.) I have my favorites and my least favorites, but I genuinely want all of the residents to be happy and comfortable with their apartment. I love them. 

Things right now are in a good place for the Garcia's and I am so very thankful for that. My husband and I are doing so good, seems like we're really on the same page with where we are and where we want our family to go. I fall in love with him everyday. 

That's everything for now!

Time Flies When You're Having Fun... Right?

Oh my goodness, how time flies! 2014 Already? And February at that? Unbelievable!
I find it quite ironic that my last post was about juggling my life all around, yet I lost sight of one of the things last year I really wanted to do, write.

I started this blog as an outlet. Writing has always been a secret passion of mine and it pains me that I let it fall to the wayside. So, instead of making "new year resolutions" this year, I'm just going to promise myself that I am going to try and do the best I can and to let somethings go when I start to feel overwhelmed. Hopefully, I will be able to blog more because I actually love it! But if I cannot, that's ok too.

A lot of things happened in 2013. Things that were good and things that were unfortunate. People say like to say the cliche "I wouldn't change the past" blah blah blah, but I would. Things happened in 2013 that were not fair to my family and I would change it in a heartbeat. However, I realize now that everything happens for a reason, and that the good Lord knows exactly what he is doing.

Unfortunate things that happen in life shouldn't over shadow the awesome and beautiful things that happen everyday. I've come to realize through prayer and just having time to myself that life is beautiful. Its the amazing things that happen and the little victories along with the unfortunate things that makes us love the life we live.

And isn't that what life is all about? Love.

xo, Londyn.

ps, I did not edit this at all, just writing directly from my heart. Please forgive all my grammatical errors, because I'm sure there are plenty! :-)
