Lots of thoughts need an outlet

Well friends, here it is.  I happen to be one of those people who like to write long extended notes about my life.  A blog seems to be a better outlet for these thoughts then facebook.  If you happen to stumble across my ramblings...congratulations.  If you happen to take the time to read my ramblings...well, thank you!

I guess to start, I'll fill you in about what is going on in my life.  On Thursday I began the next step in my journey.  Graduate school has always been a dream of mine, and now it has become a reality!  Crazy as it may sound, I am taking 13 graduate hours.  4 of those hours are orchestra (finally...Orchestra!) and oboe lessons.  Another thing I get to do this semester is working in a preschool for special needs children.  I'll be helping with the music portion.  Wednesday is the day I finally get to start my graduate teaching assistantship.  Another dream come true....in the music theory department! 

If I had tried to plan all this, I would have fallen so short.  My God is so much greater then I am!  When I finally let go and gave Him complete control of my life and my future, His amazing hand worked in ways I could have never imagined. 

And so...here I am. Living out my dream.  Letting go of myself.  Learning everyday what it means to fall in crazy love with my Jesus. 

Much Love <3
