The other half of me still thinks she is 24 and wants to wear the latest fashions, dance perfect hip hop moves, listens to the latest music and knows every slang word in the updated dictionary. She has her own blog and updates her facebook account. She shops on eBay and texts her friends.
These two personalities seem to be co-existing quite well and I seem to be able to turn them on and off at will. There is an internal battle between them though. They each want more face time than the other. I am pretty sure the "mom" personality is going to win eventually and when she does I think I will feel more peaceful and content. Perhaps Ms 24 is just my youth tugging at me and hanging on with all its might. For now I think I will let it. I am not quite ready to let it go. For now I will try and bake cookies, fix nice meals, take good care of my family and still blast the stereo in the car on the way to the gym and chair dance all the way there....

uh, that's only 2 personalities. i think you'll find they can coexist at least to some extent! when you ditch us to start hanging out with the actual 24 year olds, then we'll have problems. you're a coo mom!
Kristin...I have those struggles,too. i love to blast the music in my car! and I want to look good, too. But , it comes down to where your treasure truly lies! That's why I love this scripture from Luke........
"Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be."
you know where your heart lies....
love you
lecture over
bye!
