I AM

I.....Darcy

I AM ...someone who is fascinated by criminal justice. I spend my time watching cold case files, working in security, and watching crime dramas.

I WANT... to be able to stay home with my kids without having to work.

I HAVE ... a wonderful home, healthy kids, a super helpful and loving husband, and a wonderful religion that pulls me through EVERYTHING.

I WISH I COULD ... be a homicide detective without putting my family at risk. To become a detective, you have to be in patrol and that's just too much of a risk.

I HATE ... being so angry and nagging all the time. I take some things way too seriously.

I FEAR ... dying young...for some reason I thought it would always happen. I'm afraid my kids won't remember me if that happens.

I HEAR ....Aidan is watching one of his many favorite movies.

I SEARCH ... to become close to my Father in Heaven.

I DON'T THINK ... that my kids get enough of my attention.

I REGRET ...Not finishing my degree sooner.

I LOVE ...my husband and kids.

I ACHE FOR ... couples that are struggling to become parents.

I ALWAYS CRY ... when I'm overwhelmed and overstressed.

I AM NOT ...A typical mother.

I DANCE ... when I'm deliriously happy and to exercise.

I SING ... ALL the time. I even make up my own songs.

I NEVER ... want to give up on my marriage.

I RARELY ... get to spend time on my crafts.

I CRY WHEN I WATCH ...someone mistreating children. Children suffering for any reson.

I AM NOT ALWAYS ... as patient with my husband as I should be....I need to give him more slack.

I HATE THAT ... My house will never be all the way cleaned or organized.

I'M CONFUSED ABOUT ... my depression. I desperately wish I could get rid of it.

I NEED ... to feel validated and appreciated and needed.

I SHOULD ... be playing cars with my children and making the little revving noises.
