2 more days and Grant will FINALLY be home. Krystina did the most amazing little thing EVER yesterday. They had build a bear come to their school, all of the other children made something for themselves... not our little noodle. She chose to make a Soldier Dragon for her DADDY! What made it that much cuter was that he won her a dragon on our first trip to Disneyland 2 weeks after we got her. She is so proud of her Soldier daddy... of course I started to cry and she started apologizing thinking that she had done something wrong, my poor baby, I had to explain that they were happy tears!
I have been thinking more and more about this pageant. I decided to do it because I realized that I was losing site of myself, I began identifying and defining myself only as a wife and a mother and totally forgot about Shana. Pageants are something that I used to do and they made me feel so good about myself. I love the fact that the Mrs. International pageant is so much about community involvement, it gives me a platform to be able to be more involved in a cause that is so close to my heart, Domestic Violence. People that know me know how deep this has touched my life, those who don't probably just think I am a bleeding heart person that wants to save the world... while that may be true I want to help and know that I made a difference in this world.
