Hi there :)
It's been a while, has it not? It's a lot harder to think of interesting things to blog about when school is on my mind so much.
But because it has been a while, I have a few things I can share.
First of all, today I got a call at 3:30 a.m. to tell me that a very dear friend and sister of mine was in labor to have her first baby girl! I spent the morning with my niece so my sister-in-law could be with her sister while she delivered that new life into this big world. It was pretty fun explaining to Aubrie that the baby was coming :))
Secondly, school has been quite the journey this past few weeks. Very stressful, which I still haven't mastered how to handle that well, but in the end, my wonderful family was there to pick up the pieces and encourage me to keep pressing on.
The class that most of my classmates (including myself) are failing, has finally begun to turn around after some prayer and an e-mail to my professor. So please keep me in your prayers as I work to bring my grade up! God is so good and ever willing to help me!
My family is in Texas for two weeks....which I do not like because I didn't get to go. My dear grandparents are out there and it burns in my heart so much that I can't be there with them all. But, good news has come back to me that they are all doing very well!
My garden is looking very nice, and I am so happy about that. All of my seedlings are getting pretty big, and I bought a few bigger plants to fill in the gaps of the seedlings.
I think my favorite thing in there, so far, is my sugar snap peas. My dad and I planted the seeds together and they are now about six inches tall and have those little curly projections reaching out to find the post to grow upward!
Sugar snap peas!

It's so exiting to watch things grow. There is a lot of growth going on around me. Plants, babies, people, myself spiritually. That's what I love most about this time of year. God makes everything grow so beautifully.
Well dear friends, thanks for reading. Sorry it has been so long since I last posted. I hope this finds you all doing so well.
God bless you and enjoy this beautiful day God has given us!
