Kumbaya!

Right now I am talking to Sue Blackburn. YAY! She is very fun! Today I am babysitting for my parents, and Trav and As. The reason this is titled "Kumbaya", is because of my brother Nathan, who was just singing that song. Random, I know, but who isn't at least a little random? Hmmm... what to talk about... well, 11 days until we leave HOLY COW! It is so surprising... it feels like we have only been here for 2 weeks... and now we are leaving!! What on earth... the first person I get to see in America is Ry!! YAY!! His whole family has been fasting from Wendy's for us!! HAHAHA!! They are all so wonderful!! As you could imagine, we are all going out to dinner at Wendy's!! HALLELUIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really miss Amy Furguson... she is such a darling! I'm also really missing Casey Gossman!!!!! She rocks!! To all my girls, I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am in the process of co-authoring a book. It is very exciting! We (Ry and I) are planning on making it a trilogy! I absolutely adore reading and writing fantasy!! If anyone would like to critic or just read my book, email me! I would be gald to send it! As of now, Desiree Guzman (sorry if I spelled it wrong, D), who is an experienced writer is reading and criticizing the book. She is very skilled and I really enjoy her suggestions!! Well, I am off to answer emails and keep revising the story!!
Much love from your sis in Christ!

Long Time, No Blog!

Hello everyone... I apologize most sincerely for not writing my blog for over a month! The reason I have decided to write again, is because of Bert Slater. To me, he is grandpa (not really, but I view him as an adopted grandfather!), to his country, he is a hero, and to life, he is an adventurer. All of these qualities are amazing, and I wish that I might be able to own up to so much when I am old, but the most magnificent characteristic about him is, to God, he is a spirit that is so wonderful it cannot be explained in words. Bert is never frowning; he is always in a welcoming and friendly mood. He is wise, caring, understanding, and encouraging. Many people know him and love him. I know that I love him with all of my heart, but it is nothing in comparison to the amount of love God has for him. Just think about it, how can a person love so many people so much, without the love of Jesus Christ pouring out of them? I have just read an email that Bert sent me. I almost cried. He told me of how he had printed out all of my blogs and so enjoyed reading them. The email contained many quotes and words that have been in my previous blogs. Bert Slater said that I had encouraged and influenced him, but now I should think it the other way around! Grandpa Bert, this piece of my blog is dedicated to you. Thank you for being such a splendiferous person that so many of us have come to adore and cherish.

I pray that some of you still check up on my blogs once in a while. If you read this, please pass the knowledge of my return on to others. This blog may hold comments for me, but I would prefer them to be for Bert. Encourage him, love on him, write to him in the most animated language that you can muster. Sometimes, as everybody knows, people need their friends to verbalize or even write down how much they love them, show Bert that love. God knows Bert cannot be a fountain of love all the time!! I love you Grandpa Bert, thank you once again.

Much love from your sis in Christ!
