The Homework Life of a Teenager

This is mostly what I've been up to lately. My mom's been doing a fabulous job posting hasn't she? I think so. But if you'll excuse, I must get back to that wonderful homework...not.

Happy Friday!

I Wish...

Sometimes...

I wish teachers wouldn't give out so much homework

I wish my mom didn't get hurt while she tries to be the best momma she can be

I wish I had the stylish clothes and shoes ever

I wish my siblings weren't so mean or disrespectful

I wish I could please the Lord in a better way and more often

I wish my attitude was always good

I wish that making hard decisions wasn't so...well...hard

I wish the truth in some situations wasn't so hard to say

I wish that the house was always clean

I wish my makeup, hair, and face was always spotless and perfect

I wish that I didn't get so jealous over ridiculous things

I wish my dad had a better boss and a higher paycheck

I wish that money didn't get in the way of so much stuff

I wish that hearts could never be broken

I wish that there were so orphans in this world

I wish friends wouldn't lie and make things so complicated

I wish driving was a piece of cake and could be done with no possible accidents

I wish politicians could make decisions that help everyone

I wish athletes didn't have to get hurt and ruin their dreams

I wish that no one got sick and would stay healthy

I wish that I could take amazing pictures

I wish... I wish... I wish...

BUT

I know... That our God performs miracles and that some of the things above could eventually be fixed.

Nothing is impossible with God!

We're Back | Road Trip

We took another road trip this weekend! It was a short 2 day one, but it was so fun! We went to see our friends the Zells. They live in South Dakota, which is only 4-5 hours away. We were all very glad it wasn't another 12 + hour trip.

Unfortunately because it was such a short trip, and we wanted to get as much time in together as possible I didn't take a single picture. Not one. Can you believe that? My mom brought her camera but we just never got it out.

If you remember they came to visit us in November and we had a lot of fun with them then too!

So that's why I've been slacking a little on this blog. Friday we didn't have school, but Erin and I had a group to go to that night and we also had to pack. We left Saturday morning, came home yesterday, and we're glad we don't have school today.

A couple of us still need to finish homework, the other ones are playing games or coloring, and we're definitely taking in this great weather for as long as possible! :)

Have a great Monday everyone and happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day!
