I LOVE kids. I love to babysit, and I'm so happy, because I have started babysitting for a really sweet family from the Church where I work. I am SO blessed to get to babysit for them! :)
Sometimes I just want to be a "grown-up" and be married with kids of my own. I'm thankful for my life right now, and I do try to live in the moment, but sometimes I crave the day when I have a husband and children who I can cherish and adore! I think it is a healthy desire, because I think very hard about ways to be a good wife and mother when the time does come for me.
I'm extremely thankful for this time of preperation- sometimes, as badly as I want it to be over, I don't want it to end, because I feel like I will never be a good enough wife or mother. God is preparing me, though, that is for sure. I definitely see that in my life right now. It's SO exciting! I feel like God has something AMAZING in store for me, something that I get to experience really soon! :D
I don't want to go to college... I have never really had the desire. I have never thought about what I want to do instead... and then lately, God has brought things to my attention! That really taught me how much I can trust Him. I truly don't have to worry- He's taking care of things :)
One of my friends was telling me about a missions group that travels around to different Churches to do really in-depth children's ministry and things like that. I think that getting to do something like that would be BEYOND WONDERFUL! Getting the opportunity to travel around and share God's love with people? Oh my gosh, SIGN ME UP! Lol :) Not only would I get to work doing children's ministry, but I could meet other people who have a heart for ministry, too!
Also, a little part of one of my Economics assignments last week was to pick a "career" to have once I get out of school. It wasn't that big of a deal, so I just went with the second thing that popped into my head: being a nanny! (This is assuming I'm not married yet, and don't have my own children to take care of.) I had never really thought about that seriously, but now that I have, I think it would be another great option of something to do once I'm out of school :) Amazing training for being a Mom, too ;)
*Happy Sigh* I'm really looking forward to my life! Lol! :) My life as in now until, well, eternity! Hehe :D
And I must say, today is a very special day! 'Tis the birthday of my favorite person in the entire world, other than my Mom. Lol. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GRANDMA SUE!!! My Grandma Sue is seriously THE best EVER. I love her more than I could ever put into words. She is outstanding, and I can't imagine my life without her! I LOVE MY GRANDMA SUE!!! Happy birthday!
Blessings to everyone♥ :)

Summer Vacation is Almost Over!
It is officially August! What a busy July I had! I did some math, and realized that in July alone, I have spent over 52 hours in moving vehicles! 52 hours + of travel in a total of 31 days! Wow...
Right now I am in South Dakota with my Grandma for the Sturgis motorcycle rally. It began today. Yesterday we got to do some sight-seeing, which included getting to see Mount Rushmore! That was pretty cool. I didn't get to see it when we lived on the road, so it was very exciting getting to see something new.
Last week (July 21st-25th) I went to camp with my best friend and her Church. It was fun. There was a lot of Bible teaching, sports, and other activities. I didn't get as much out of the teaching this year as I did last year. That was sad :( I was HORRIBLE at all of the sports. I've never really been much of an athletic person. A couple of the other activies that we did included Bible Trivia & Square dancing, though. I LOVED both of those! I could have happily sat and done Bible Trivia all day, every day of camp! The only thing that I didn't like about it was the fact that you had to wait so long for your turn! Oh yeah, we also played ping-pong, which was IMMENSELY funy in my opinion :D I actually learned the rules of ping-pong, too! I had some laugh attacks with Kerra while I was at camp as well, and that was pretty exciting ;)
Oh, I forgot to mention something. Before I came to South Dakota, I got to spend a day in Iowa visiting my some of my family members and friends! That was extremely happy-making :D God has blessed me with SUCH a great family... I am so very blessed! I can't put it into words! I really miss my family back home! It seems like I haven't seen them at ALL this summer! Hopefully I can spend some quality time with them when I get home, before school starts.
Well, I thought I should write a little update. I really want to type up some of my thoughts on this book I got called "Driven by Eternity" (by John Bevere), but that will have to wait until later, I guess. I'm going to go. So... be blessed, everybody! I miss you!!

It's SUMMER!
Oh my goodness... I love summer SO much! I feel so free! I was kind of worried about summer at first, because I thought that I was going to be GONE the whole time, not getting enough sleep, and I figured I'd reach a point of pure grouchiness. lol. Things have changed, though, and so I'm not going anywhere out of state in the month of June, & the month has been really fun so far! I have spent a ton of time with friends, it is so cool to be able to invite friends over more! We got our pool set up, and boy oh boy is that awesome! I am working 1-2 days a week, which has been great. I have done a lot of Bible study & stuff like that, and seriously, growing into a disciple of Jesus Christ is the best thing in the world. I don't want to say the best feeling in the world, because it's more than that. It really makes me realize how empty I would be without God.
In July, I'm going to go to Canada with my older brother, to meet up with my Dad & two younger siblings to spend time with my sister who lives in Canada. I am REALLY looking forward to it! I miss my sister SO much, I haven't seen her for years. I miss the rest of my family, too. I have to admit I'm looking forward to Canada itself, also. (eh?)
After I get home from Canada & rest up for awhile, I'm going to camp! I'm going with my friend Kerra & her youth group, like I did last year. I am really looking forward to it! Last year was so much fun, & I learned a lot, growing as a Christian. 'Twas splendid!
In August, I'm going to go to South Dakota (that state that is south of North Dakota, ya know) with my FANTABULOUS Grandma and Grandpa. I'm going to a HUGE motorcycle rally- Sturgis! I am SO EXCITED! I miss living on the road & motorcycle rallies sometimes, so I'm very thankful that my Grandma is letting me join her & help her out with one this summer. She did last summer, too, and it was wonderful :)
After that, I'm going to come home and start school again. I will go, "Goodness gracious, summer is over already?" Time flies when you are having fun, & God has blessed me with a summer that is going to be beyond fun. Thank You, Lord!
