Update!

Hey guys,

I have not posted a new blog in a LONG time!!! I have started my senior year at WSU-V! Wow how time flies! I will hopefully be graduating in May if all goes according to plan! I know that God is watching over me every step of the way and is guiding me! I love WSU and the Human Development degree program is amazing! I am applying to the Masters In Teaching program at WSU and hopefully I will be able to start that in the spring.

I have also been doing my nanny job for over a year now! The baby I nanny for, Evie, has grown SO much since I started working there. She is now 15 months old, and walking and talking up a storm! It is amazing to see and hear what is she is learning each and every day!

I had a great summer of working and hanging out with friends. I also went to GRIT, which is Summit View's middle school summer camp. We took about 122 middle schoolers to a lake for 5 AMAZING days! We got to spend a lot of time with God and each other. Now we have started our fall, and I am SO excited to see what God has in store for our students and leaders! I love working with the leaders and the students, and they have been like family to me for almost a year now!

I will try and post blogs more often! Stay tuned!

Life

I have not posted a blog in awhile, so I thought I would update you guys! I have been busy with school (WSU-V) and working two jobs. I am a nanny to a 9 month old who is growing bigger everyday! It seems just like yesterday that I started working for them. I love watching her grow! I am also involved with the middle school ministry at my church. God has truly blessed me with the opportunity to lead a small group of girls :D They are awesome and I know God is working through us to grow these students to maturity in Christ! We went on our winter retreat in February, and it was AMAZING! 17 students came to Christ that weekend! I have also been going through an awesome bible study, about the Parables. I have never gotten too deep into them, and they have so much to teach us! I am blessed to be a part of a small group of women who are going through this study and who are praying persistently for one another.

I am so excited that I get to go visit my Dad's family in May! They live in South Carolina and I have not been back there since I was seven. A few of my relatives have come out here when my sister and I graduated, but I really miss all of them. I am also going to Atlanta to watch my cousin graduate and spend time with my half sister and my nieces and nephews. I have only met one of them so it will be great to finally meet all of them!

God continues to give great blessings everyday, and I am praying for everyone!

A New Year

Hey everyone,

Just thought I would give you an update..It is a new year after all! I am now in my second semester at WSU and so far so good! God has truly blessed me with the gift of an education! My sister is in school as well and I hope she is enjoying it as much as I do.

I have been going to Summit View for over a year, and I have been truly blessed by what that church has done for me! They are amazing group of people who have a real sense of community and serving God! I have recently become involved in the FOCUS middle school ministry, and I absolutely LOVE the students! We have an upcoming retreat called SnowWhat and I am encouraging the students to invite a friend who does not know Christ and to have a great time skiing, snowboarding, or tubing! This is going to be quite the adventure for me, considering I have never been on the mountain before! I hope I can go tubing! Not sure about skiing and snowboarding! I ask for everyone to pray for the retreat and the students! As well as Summit View as a whole! Several people I know are on a mission trip to Nicaragua right now, and I pray for the mission and their safe return!

I am a nanny, and I have been working for the family since the baby was about 8 weeks old or so. She is now 7 months old, and she is the most awesome baby! She is now crawling and getting her first teeth! It is amazing how fast they grow! I can't wait to be married and have kids of my own someday! God has truly blessed women with the ability to have children!

I pray that the new year has found many blessings for everyone!
