the weird thing is, usually my mom and I get along almost perfectly. which makes this hurt even more

so, the biggest reason my mom is totally against this whole thing is that she thinks we're being completely irresponsible. she told me that, straight up

sigh... that's another thing. I've prayed about it a lot - and I truly honestly think that God is behind this whole thing. looking over it, and thinking about all that's happened, I think He's the master architect of this relationship, and the train engineer for where it's going and how fast it gets there. so much good has come out of this. it's... staggering to think of sometimes.

on the other hand, to paraphrase my mom, she is praying for me to get some sense and alter my plans to suit her ideal. that seems to me like trying to get God to manipulate things to go her own way, instead of asking for acceptance of His will.

but I can't just up and say "hey mom, God says He sides with me," because she won't believe me.
