Reflections of the heart

A list for him ♥

Any man who is interested in pursuing me must understand a few things.

Like the fact that I will never be the most beautiful woman.
But I will do my best to make you laugh until he has premature wrinkles.
I may never have the "ideal" body.
But I DO enjoy eating and have quite the adventurous food palette.
I won't go skydiving.
But we can certainly go racing in fast cars or I can sit on the back of the motorcycle and I will always be willing to beat you at play video games with you however much the Lord permits.
I don't have impeccable taste.
But I love playing dress up and would love your support in helping me figure out which pair of heels to wear for the day... If the occassion permits :).
I don't have a perfect smile, even after having braces.
But I will show off my teeth and smile enough to let you know that GOD has truly given me joy in this life.
My sarcasm and quick tongue may get me in trouble.
But the Lord has taught me to apologize swiftly and to live with a forgiving mindset.
Sometimes I want to be a debbie downer on how I'm not good enough...And I may cry uncontrollably when the Lord rebukes me with a reminder of His infinite love for me.
I love writing songs, poetry and prayers...
But asking me to read them aloud is one of the few times that you will see this curly headed child get shy.

I could dance under the stars until the sun rises...
And it would be nice if you were willing to too, despite how bad your moves may be =).

p.s. I don't know if it is too soon but I really want a little girl someday.
I hope you do too.


Just some thoughts...
Nothing but thoughts...

I love this! I remember back in college a good friend of mine and I made our own lists of standards we had for men during our weekly coffee dates. (We had coffee together once a week to talk about life and did devotions and read books together. It was wonderful and I miss it!) At the end of the school year she made me a little book out of the cardboard coffee sleeves that had different tidbits of what we talked about - but at the end she included our list of standards. It was so sweet and I still look at it to remind myself!
