| COMING SOON I don't think very many people actually use this. I can not believe the year has flown by. As I look back I am amazed to see how much can happen in a year. Last year at this time I never imagined that I would be where I am right now... My mother being gone, me finishing my first year of teaching, and about to get married. The year has been good but the most difficult. I daily struggle with the loss of my mom and at the sametime I am so thankful for the time that I had with her. Not everyone has a mother that is that wonderful. On the way to school this morning I began to think about my students at Mullin and how many of them have mothers that are in prison. Then I stopped crying to think how blessed I am that I had 25 amazing years with an a outstanding mother. I know that God is good despite my hurt and confusion about what happened. The wedding will be here very soon. We are less than six weeks away. I have everything basically ready to go. I am looking forward to the day. You do all this planning and then you just want it to be here. Frisco is also looking forward to the day. He always jokes that he doesnt care if I show up for the wedding, as long as I show up for the honeymoon! Frisco is still looking for a real job- he graduates this Saturday from HPU. Other then that I am counting down the days until school is out! I am so ready! Lacey and Tab dont forget that on June 16th you are in charge of the gift table...I can not wait to see you there! Miss all of you! Amanda Bludworth soon to be FORMAGGIO | | |
| My Mom and Best Friend I know there are very few people that actually use this anymore and I am actually one of them. I wanted to let some of you in on somethings that are happening in my life.
I am still coaching and teaching and I love it. I am currently coaching basketball. I am also about to be leaving the church I am at. Frisco has graduated and we are looking for a job that he can do his ministry in. Please be in prayer about that.
I also wanted to let you all know that my mom passed away a month ago. It was completely unexpected and a total shock. She had battled cancer for seven years and battled it successfully. In the end it was her heart that could no longer endure. I have had the hardest and most difficult time that I have ever been presented in my entire life. My mother was everything to me. She was my encouragement, stremgth, mentor, and my best friend. I spoke with her several times a day and saw her everyday. Although I have my own apartment I spent atleast 4 nights a week with my mother. We would spend hours talking, laughing, and watching television together. She was the one I would call on my way to school and on the way home from school. She was the one I would call when I had bad news or good news. She was my sunshine on a cloudy day. I have struggled with the pain of missing her. It is difficult to even grasp that I will have no more time with her on this earth. Every morning I wake up thinking I will be relieved of the bad dream and it just doesn't happen. My faith and spirit have been tested. Although I am completely aware that my mom is in a better place and that she is suffering no more, it is difficult to accept the hand that has been dealt. In many ways I feel cheated that I only got 25 years with my mother and best friend (she passed away the morning after my 25th birthday.) I look at her picture everyday and think how beautiful she is. I am reminded of her spirit, love, and gifts everyday. It seems that everything I do or see throughout my day reminds me of the wonderful mother I had. I long to fling open the garage door and yell her name. I ache for one more hug, and I imagine her voice on the other end of the phone. As you can see I miss her. Today has been rough and I suppose that is why I am writing this.
I leave you with this: Cling to those you love, because as I have learned....life is so fragile and we are granted no guarantees. I also ask that you keep me and my dad and the rest of my family in your prayers. Thanks. | | |
| Busy BeeOk so it has been forever since I have logged on. I am sorry, if there is anyone who reads this..hehe. I have been staying busy with life. I am loving my teaching and coaching job. God has really shown me a lot there and I really feel like I am where I am supposed to be. I am also still working at the church- which is going crazy, good. Frisco and I have been dating for nearly two years. I can't believe how fast time goes by. He is finishing his last semester of school and then we will see the next step and where we will end up (as far as location.) We have been doing really well. There have been some struggles in the past two years but there has been a lot of growth as well. We are both realizing different things that our relationship needs to continue to flourish and that is neat to see. Frisco has made a lot of changes and I am proud of him for continuing to seek to be the man that God has destined for him to be. We have begun making dinner for one another two nights a week. (Which for me is huge because cooking hasn't been my thing in the past.) We also eat out a lot....we have found a new favorite dessert spot- Docs Pharamacy! Onto another subject- I threw up the other night and Frisco carried me to my bed and then cleaned up all my throw up. I thought that was very sweet....yes we are very comfortable with one another! haha! There has not been a lot going on other then these things. I have been staying super busy- yet a good busy.
