Weird!

You ever just stop and think about your life...
Do it.
Think about it. For a minute.
I always think about life...how tricky it is.
How strange it all can turn out.
To think I was once a young girl, attached to my mother's hip. She was all I knew. I didn't know any better. I thought there was nothing better than her. She was my everything. Only to grow up and realize how being that young blinded me from the terrible things she was doing. The lies. Everything. Everything she did (for the most part) wasn't for her children. It was for her. Whatever made her life easier. Whatever she wanted.
And then I think about being that young and being so mad at my Father. For not being there. (Probably a big reason I was so attached to my Mother, afterall, atleast she was present) So it's pretty crazy that he is now my facebook friend...and I may not see him all the time, but I see him waaaay more than my Mother. That's weird. Everything completely flip-flopped, in such a short amount of time.
And when I think about how crazy my life is, I can't help but think about the fact that I got to marry Cory. All the times I remember seeing him, in junior high and in high school...and just thinking that I would never be someone that he would be interested in. I remember going over to his house late at night and just hanging out with him...and we would flirt like crazy...but I never would've dreamed that just a few years down the road, he would be my Husband. That I would get to go to sleep next to him every night of my life. And I can't explain how amazingly crazy it is that it all worked out like that. Because, if you had asked me in 2001 if I thought that I would be married to Cory Herron in 10 years, I would've said there was no way...but here I am...watching Jeopardy with him.
Funny how it all happens, huh?

-Mrs. Herron
