Beauty

Ah, I am having a wonderful evening. Still getting used to the time change and still very tired, but I love this time of year. We have had some beautiful sun-downs that my big sister Song captured in her blog Shanghai Songbird, you should check that out. I love spring time when the trees are blooming, the grass growing, and a few flowers here and there. It's not spring yet, but all of this is starting already. I think sometimes we see straight through the beauty of the world God created. We don't realize how wonderful and amazing it is that we have so much as seasons. But I'm also sad that it's about to be mosquito season again. They really bother me is more ways than I can say. I had better go, can't stay up on a church night. I'll post soon!!!

God

Hello guys! How are you? I was just going to say how wonderful God is. He works in mysterious and wonderful ways. I realize now that I'm older how blessed I am. I have a wonderful home, an amazing family, and way too many clothes:) But the most wonderful of all the things I have is a forgiving, saving, and never-ending God. Some people might think it's a bad thing to go on the mission field, but I think that since God gave us so much, why not give Him our lives, why not live for Him? I am also experiencing this restlessness to be a missionary that won't go away until I get to India, so it will be a while till it's gone. I hope everyone realizes how blessed they are. If you just look around, you can see God has given you so much and we should all spend some time to tell God thank you now and then. Take a moment every now and then and see God has blessed you this very day. I hope this post has made you see God in more ways than you did before and have a great day!!

Family

I know it's been a while since my last post, so here is a new post! I didn't really go to India, that was just a project I did for school. I should also tell you that I am a homeschooled student of SPIGOT, our schools name. I am the 5th oldest in our family of 8 (parents not included) and have 3 siblings younger than me! We have a huge family, but not the biggest one I know of. I have 3 brothers and 4 sisters, 3 of whom have Down Syndrome. We are a pretty amazing family, 8 kids, 2 parents, and 3 with Down Syndrome! 5 of my siblings are adopted, making our family a pretty crazy one. I will try to remember to post soon, and I hope you enjoyed this post!!
