day nine

today was busy. i liked it because i felt like i got a lot of things done, i was even able to leave miss maggie with a friend for a few hours and run some errands by myself. while i loved having some "alone" time, i didnt love how it made me think of what it will be like dropping off my baby, and heading to work in just 2 more months. but i wont worry about that until i get there, and even then i shouldnt worry about it, and let the LORD handle it. i dont really know if i like todays topic for "project thrityone". it makes me feel silly and uncomfortable. 

day nine 

what virtues do you value in yourself?

i pretty much tried to procrastinate as long as possible on this one. but after some prayer and some thinking i decided on something. the virtue that the LORD has blessed me with an intense desire for is modesty. 

i actually really, really love it. i love knowing that my entire life i have had strong convictions about modesty that have allowed me to be an example for young girls. that is a true blessing and gift from Jesus. i value it because i am not only setting an example for my daughter, but i am honoring my husband. i value it so much because of those reasons. i can not wait to teach maggie all about the importance of modesty, as well as allowing her to express herself through fashion while keeping in mind the need to be modest. i pray she feels the same why that i do about it.
