- Sweet messages from a friend, who normally doesn't send them. Normally he picks on me. But in a brotherly way. He said "I'm sorry I've been picking on you and tearing you down, when I could be building you up." He told me I had a big heart. Made my "big heart" really happy, and my eyes a little wet.
- It's one of my favorite ladies' birthday, and she works sooo hard, so her and her family decided to take an impromptu trip to the beach, and she is loving every minute. She deserves it.
- Movies! Transformers 3, Winnie the Pooh!, Harry Potter, and manyyy more. This is a great summer for movies. I recently have watched Forrest Gump, The Notebook, Just Friends, Father of the Bride part 1 & 2. And that's just a few.
- Sticky notes. Believe it or not, these little things are awesome. And come wayyyy in handy. Reminders, sweet notes, and all kinds of inside jokes. :)
- The play lists on my iPod. Talk about some memories through songs. An "old" song comes on and I'm taken back. Good times.
- Pictures make me happy. If I'm not taking them, I'm talking about them; If I'm not talking about them, I'm thinking about them. I LOVE seeing something and thinking, "Hey, that would make a great picture. I could TOTALLY see some amazing pictures coming out of this or that." I'm ready, sooo ready for my first DSLR, so I can get to learning.
- College makes me happy. NOT all the paper work and stupid stuff that goes into it, but knowing that God is saying, "Come here. It's wonderful. Not too far from home, not too close. Not too big, not too small. It's just right. Come here, child. It's home." I knew it was home when I stepped onto campus the first time. I knew I was going to be ok. I love it when His plan comes together. My sweet Lord knew what He was doing. .
- New phones: Can't waittt to get mine. My current phone's been cracked for forever and a day. NEED the new one. :)
- My church. See, I'm tearing up just thinking about leaving my youth group, and family at CCOE. I'll be going to Cowboy Church of Erath County, but honestly, this has been home. For 4 years. I'm gonna MISS it, and everyone in it. I'll be back often, but not as often as I'd like. You see, I have to apply for year round housing. Once I leave, I'll be working, living, studying, pretty much breathing Stephenville.
- Stephenville: my new home. :)
- My momma. Oh gosh, I think THAT honestly, will be the hardest part of moving away. Leaving her. I'm gonna call her ALOT. And send her goofy pictures of me. And stupid emails while she's trying to work. I know I'm gonna cry, but its time to leave the coop, little birdy.
- My Lord. He never EVER ceases to amaze me. The work of His hands touch my soul in a way nothing else can. His plans amaze me. Always. He is so loving, so kind, so gentle, so perfect! He bestowed His grace and love on me! I see: an undeserving, selfish, rude, small-hearted little child. He sees: a forgiven, saved, lovely, blessed little child of His. I don't deserve it, but thank you, Lord. For Your son, for Your willingness to always forgive. 70 x 7 times and more. Thank you for loving me soo much as to design a plan and purpose for me, and allowing me to have the people and blessings that I have in my life. I am blessed Lord, and all the glory goes to you.
I'm gonna go write my sweet friend a sticky note.
I'm gonna go write one for each of my beautiful baby sisters.
And I'm gonna write one for my Lord, and leave it in Our special place. :)
