2012 is officially off to the worst start in my almost 20 years of life{ dramatic huh?} i'm not even joking though. The 65 days this year have been some of the most challenging times. I have been forced to grow up and be an adult and face the world in ways I hadn't thought would come now. {breathe easy...i'm not pregnant or engaged} first off, on Jan 4th I had knee surgery for an extra tissue/torn plica. Day one of school sucked on crutches.But,thanks to Mark at Mountainland I am back in fighting shape and ready to hit the gym hard{bikini by Powell..remember?} then, on Feb 1st,Sophie's birthday, I got in a car accident {my fault} and had to pay the ticket and the repairs... Yeah on top of the 1500 I had left to pay of tuition. I was stressed out for Weeks over that, but thanks to some miracles I was able to pay all three and stay afloat. I honestly have no idea how.. Well 2012 cant get any worse right? {wrongo}then on Feb 27th the world lost one of the greatest men to ever live on it, my Popi. he succumbed to the Cancer that had racked his body for 14 long and painful months. I will forever cherish the moments we were able to have together. One of my favorite moments was when he was visiting us from St.George and my mom had gotten a box of chocolate from V's, well Popi wouldn't let his Diabetes ruin the opportunity to indulge in some chocolate, and he ate the entire box. my grandma was so mad and made him check his sugars {which he didn't} he never let his disease control him which has been very inspiring. Yesterday my moms cousin Debbie succumbed to her cancer. I am so thankful for the gospel in my life and the knowledge that this life isn't the end, I will see my Popi again. All I can do now is make him proud of the woman I am becoming.
