Well, today was the first day of school! I got there at like seven twenty for my early bird class, because no one told us that our class didn't start until eight, but that was okay because we got to walk around the school and stuff. I did however stay up until two last night because yesterday I had to babysit from one to five, but the family didn't ( Read more... )

Alright, well I know I haven't updated in forever, but I've been super busy with other stuff. Melissa spent the night last Friday night, and we went to the thrift store out in Alabaster where I got all kinds of interesting t-shirts. Then we had a family reunion, and there was good food, and old people. Sunday, we went blueberry picking and then ( Read more... )

Wow, this week has gone by so fast. I guess it's cause I'm so 'scheduled' this week. I got registered for high school today. That's a little weird thinking of me being in high school. I only have one class with Lynn, one w/ Melissa and none with Shannon, but that's okay, I'm kind of used to that. I'm so tired today, and Melissa is spending the ( Read more... )

Band Camp is a lot of fun, but it's very very hot, and keeps me very very busy. All those guys are quite interesting. I feel short there surrounded by all these tall guys. But anyway, I have to go eat lunch, and get ready for Band Camp. Woo Hoo.

He has the cutest lisp, and we caught three fishies! Today we went to church, and I played with Jane Margaret. She's so cute, she keeps saying she wants someone to take care of, and today ( Read more... )

Well, yesterday was the last day of Jean Teens (volunteer work) for the summer. My class had their little end of the year party, and it was a lot of fun until they all left, then it made me feel really sad. I babysat until almost midnight last night, then my parents got me up at seven b/c we're going to the lake with my cousins this morning! I got ( Read more... )

Well, today was pretty good. Mom woke me up at seven thirty because I had to go to the Orthodontist this morning. I tried to throw a book at her. After that I went with my parents for my dad's radiation then we went to lunch at Jason's Deli with my uncle. I talked to this woman on the phone who I babysit for forever this afternoon, because she's ( Read more... )

I'm at United Cerebral Palsy's children's center where I volunteer in the summer. The kids are all napping right now, but whenever I look at them I feel so incredibly blessed. Some of these children will never walk or talk and many can never live by themselves. They will never have a first kiss, fall in love, get married, have children, and the ( Read more... )
