Lots and Lots of Exciting News

I am so sorry about not writing! I have been very busy over the last few weeks (and months!).

But, there is a lot to tell about.

1. We bought a new house

2. I redecorated my room

3. I am taking a Fine Arts co-op

4. We found a new church

Let me start with one. We were tired of looking at houses and mom and dad were just going to put an offer on this one house, when our wonderful realtor showed us one that just went on the market that day. So, we went to this house and saw how wonderful it was and decided that this was the house we wanted and if we didn't get it, we would have the other house as a backup. Well, many people saw it that day too. So there was already some offers on it. But, my smart daddy said that we should just put in full price, otherwise we were not going to get it. So, they put in the offer and now we are living in our wonderful house! Let me tell you about it. It is a two story with a basement. On the 2nd floor are 3 bedrooms and a bonus. One of the bedrooms is the master. Than on the first floor there is a big kitchen, a dining room, and the living room and laundry room. In the basement there is lots of space and it even has it's own bathroom. Then there is another garage, besides the one that is attached to the house, and a pool. And it on a 1 acre lot. It is perfect, just we wanted another acre. But, what would we do with another acre? Mow. And mow. And more mowing.

Two, I redecorated my room. Me and my friends back where is used to live played a shopping spree before I left. We were all redoing our rooms. So we had the most funnest time in the world going through stores and walking around. I think we spent more money on our clothes than we did on our rooms, but it was still fun.

But, I did redecorate my room. I painted it light green and I am going to put light blue polka dots on the wall. And we had a garage sale with our friends from church and we traded stuff with them and I ended up getting some new decorations for my room. I also had some neon flowers that I had bought at Hobby Lobby that were on sale for 50% off and put them up and then put two butterflies around the flowers to make it look like the butterflies were flying around the flowers. And I am going to put the word "Dream" under them in brown.

Kaylee redid her room too and it is pink. She wanted a room theme and chose Paris for it. So she has an Ifle Tower and lots of poodle pictures.

I am also taking a Fine Arts co-op that is extremely fun. Here is my schedule:

9am - 10am: Voilin

10am - 11am: Break Time

11am- 12pm: Folk Dancing Class

12pm - 12:30pm: Lunch

12:30 - 1:30: Art Class

1:30 - 2pm: Break

2pm - 3:30pm: Choir

And next year I am going to add (if I can) Ballroom Dancing, Tumbling, Photography and Ballet into my schedule. I also take a once a month co-op that teaches liturchure. It is a great class that will hopefully help me on my career as a Writer.

We found a new church. We now go to St. James the Apostle Catholic Church. I am going to be in a class called Edge. It is for middle schoolers. I can't wait to go. And what is so funny is that my new friend from co-op goes to the same church! And she does Edge! How cool is that!

Well, I hope this makes up for me not writing. I am going to start writing again.

The LORD Is My Sheperd

Last Sunday our Deacon delivered a wonderful Homily. And I love all our deacons, because they make the sermons funny and meaningful, not just boring old Homily. He talked about how we are the sheep and the LORD is our Shepherd. And he talked about how the Shepherds in those days would lead all the sheep into a fold for the night, to be safe. Our Gospel talked about how Jesus is the fold. He protects us against robbers that might steel our souls and from wandering away from Him. He also told us about sheep. He said sheep were stupid. That they all follow one another. He said that he read a story that 600 sheep were grazing and one fell over a cliff. So the others followed. 200 died but the rest were okay because they fell on top of the 200. It is true, we are kind of stupid, in a way. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't mean to insult anybody, but, we follow everything. We follow the trends, hair styles, makeup. We want to do what our friends are doing. We follow the wrong people. I read a book and it said that you have to control yourself or you will end up hurting yourself. Like, just because your friends are smoking, you shouldn't. If you think it is cool, then think again. It is not. I went to a Science field trip and the lung of a smoker is green and gross. Yuck.

Another example is our clothing. Yes, our clothing. We have to think about what is modest. Not the V-line dresses and the short shorts. We want to be the best, to look good.

So, next time you go shopping, think about what is pleasing to God, not the world. Think, " It is not about me, it is about Him!"

Psalm 23: 1-4

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures;He leads me beside the still waters.
He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

C-Sunshine's Creations Post

I have had this store for over a year, now. And I realize that I am not trying to make the cards, I just want the money. So, I am now going to put all my effort into it and be a good girl about my business. But, I think I will make this a summer job. I will take orders one at a time, though, in the school year. If any body has any good tips on how to run a business, please, let me know.

Something or Someone Week 1: K-Doodle

Every week I am going to blog about something or someone. This will be on Wednesday. Every Wednesday check my blog to see who I am blogging about or what I am blogging about. This will be called Something or Someone. I know it is Thursday but, I am going to blog about K-Doodle:

Name: K-Doodle

Age: Just turned 8

K-Doodle is a smart little girl whom I love. I am very thankful for having a little sister. If I didn't have her I wouldn't know what to do. She loves to write, draw and read. She is sometimes a pain, but I put up with. :-) She loves to be with family and friends. She knows a lot. She is my best friend. She likes nature. Likes to go outside, to play pretend and make her sister play with her (that's me!). She is jealous of me for my blog. I have a lot of fun with her. She scares easily. Likes to make new creations. Has a funny laugh. Is very fun to be around. Asks A LOT a questions. Likes to have "stuff". Collects postcards. Is the baby of the family. And I love her to pieces.

My Background Says Something About Me...

My new background is telling you something. All these posts are the things I write. This is like a very big piece of online paper.

I love to read and write. I read stories and get ideas from them and then write my own. I don't like to just make up any story. I have to have something in there is me. Like Lightning, my old post. I made that up because I love horses. Or I make up a story that I wish to happen. I wish the world will come together in Christ and there will be peace in the world. This will probably not ever happen, but it is a dream. Never give up on your dreams!

Underestimated

This post is for all kids who think they aren't noticed.

I have been thinking a lot about this. We all are alike and we all are different and that's what makes us the same. When I say something to my Mom, I usually get turned down or ignored. My ideas are never thought of, unless they are about something that is important. If we all we're grownups I would probably be heard. But I'm not, YET. I want to be heard. I want to have my ideas considered. But I know one thing, God hears me. Everyone can talk to God and he will hear. He might not answer quickly, but he hears.

I just hope somebody will get this post and think about. Kids are people, we're tiny adults. We have minds and we want them to be able to talk to somebody about our ideas. There is another thing. We can use some help. I know you're busy, but take fifteen minutes to help your kids. (Like with there room...) And we like to have alone time with our parents. You know, out shopping or just sitting down and talking.

Oh, and kids should help there parents. I am having a hard time with this. But we should. But, parents need help, too. Right?


Well, I hope this makes you feel like you need to help your kids. It should.

"A person is a person, no matter how small!"
From Horton Hears a Who, by Dr. Seuss

"Honor thy father and thy mother."
From Exodus 20:17

P.S. Mom, you are probably going to tell me that this is wrong and that you do listen to me, but I don't think you do (much...)

Listen to Your Heart

I was thinking about something. A lot of people dream about something and never work toward the goal. Some dreams don't have to be worked toward. But some dreams do. All over the world people dream. Don't let a dream go to waste if you have one. Work and wish toward it and someday it will come true. I want to become a horse back rider, and I have to work toward that. If every person in the world didn't dream and work toward it nothing would be done. Doctors wouldn't become Doctors and the world would get sick. Builders wouldn't become builders and there wouldn't be houses. Look at your house. If builders didn't dream about building it they wouldn't have.

" For where your treasure is, there will be your heart also." Luke 12:34
My favorite verse.

Lightning

My mom told me to publish one of my writings. As I told you before, I will be publishing some of my poems and writings. This one I call Lightning:

I went into the stable, bored,, and saw a wonderful, but scary, sight. A pretty black stallion, tied up in his stall, was pawing the ground and neighing loudly. he was trying to open the door of his stall. He looked at me and I looked at him. He wanted to run. I opened the door to the stall. He ran out. I named him Lightning.

Why I Have Not

The reason why I have not been writing was because I had the flu. I was running a fever and now I am at the last few days of just coughing and having a runny nose.

I was thinking that I would publish some of my poems and stories that I have done. This one is called Birds.

Hear their pretty sound,
As they go flying about
Above the treetops.
