The One Big Thing that May Taught Me.
Like most months that come with big events, May taught me a heck of a lot. But-as cheesy and cliché as I am about to sound-I can sum it all up in one lesson.
May taught me that dreams really do come true.
This month, I got to see the love of my life achieve his lifelong dream of becoming a doctor. It was such a big dream that it always seemed so far away, but it came true.
This month, our dream of becoming homeowners came true. It seemed like such a lofty dream, but here we are.
May is the month that so many of my little dreams became reality. My dream of getting to stay in Florida, getting to say goodbye to apartment living, getting to move somewhere that feels like a perfect place to house all my future dreams.
So often we walk through life just waiting for something bad to happen, just waiting for something to go wrong. WHY do we do that?!
Sure, I’ve had my fair share of months that made me want to throw my hands up and scream at the sky-WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS?! This month, though, it’s been me looking around in awe and incredulously whispering, “what did I do to deserve this?”
And yeah, I’m sure that I have many times ahead of me where I’ll feel like the entire universe is against me, once again. But when those times come, I hope that I’ll go lay in my hammock in my perfect backyard and remind myself of this magical month; remind myself that dreams really do come true, so I need to shake it off, because there’s still magic out there to be seen.
What did May teach you?

Congratulations to you three being homeowners & getting to live in Gainesville & Chris being a doctor & you being a doctor's wife & little Jack having such great parents! It is such a blessing.

Isn't it amazing when we have those moments that remind us how beautiful life is? We have so much to be thankful for! Yay for dreams coming true!
You are so right – WHY do we go through life always wondering what could go wrong? Unfortunately, it seems easier to focus on negative things sometimes than all of the positive things. May treated you guys very well & I wish you the best!
It's sounds like May was extremely nice to you! Hopefully things keep going from good to better!
Congrats on all the achievement!
