This passage from 2 Corinthians 12:9 has been very encouraging to me this week. I just wish I remembered it all the time!
"My Grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in weakness."
The first five people to leave a comment on this blog will receive something made by me. However there are some limitations:
1. There is no guarantee that you will like what I make. I'll do my best, but don't come crying to me if you don't like it.
2. What I create will be just for you, unless you specify that you want something for a spouse or child in your post.
3. It will be done within a year (might take a while).
4. You have no clue what it is going to be and I'm not going to give you any hints. I'll post it on my blog when I'm done, before I send it to you.
5. I reserve the right to do something really crazy or fun.
Here's the catch: if you choose to do this, you must post this on your blog and be ready to make something for five people too. This will be fun! When you receive the fabulous item I make you, you must post a picture of it on your blog too.
(You will probably be getting something baked from me..maybe not though)

- Anyways, for Spring break we are going down to Clearwater beach and we're also going to get to see all the FC peeps down there. We're bring ABBIE BUCHANAN with us! So excited. It will be amazing.
- The FC chorus will be performing in Roswell on March 17th! I've heard they're really good. Should be fun. If you need directions or details.....ask my mom. ^ Because that's all I know about that.
- School is going well, I'm pretty anxious for it to be over though. In less than 3 months I'll be halfway done with highschool...that's crazy.
- So last week I came in from a friends house and had this conversation with my parents:
me: hey momma, hey daddy
them: We're going to start giving you an allowance every week. Like 25 bucks.
me: oh, ok. Thanks. why....
I've never had an allowance so I'm not sure why they randomly decided to do this...but I'm not complaining.
- Lelu goes everywhere with us now. To church, to school, to the grocery. She gets really nervous in her crate, and she really likes going on car rides, so my dad takes her.
Have a Good Spring break everybody!

Hello Everyone.
I would like to ask for prayers for my Aunt Sheila. She recently had an EKG and discovered that she had had a minor heart attack. The doctors think it was probably while she was asleep because she was unaware of it. They think she might have damage and some blockage in her arteries. She'll be going back in for more testing.
Also, My grandma's husband Paul had 2 strokes over Christmas break- One minor and one major. They didn't think he was going to make it through the night that he had a stroke but our prayers were answered and he is recovering. They live about 30 minutes form Chase so he visits them a lot.
More importantly, none of them are Christians. So pray that they might be brought to God somehow through these experiences.
Thanks!

Tonight we went to the Roswell Gospel Meeting. We heard Mr. Ralph Walker Preach and he was awesome. The title of his lesson was "the greatest story ever told." He was going through the whole bible, briefly, but we just heard from Moses to Saul. It was a really good review and it was really awesome to study God's plan through a small part of scripture.
Basketball has started. We've had a tournament and one regular season game so far. We won two and lost two in the tournament and then won our first game against John Smoltz' school. Let me know if any of you would like to come see me and I'll give you a schedule.
School is going good. It's been pretty tough lately, a lot of work. I made it into the National Honor Society recently. I don't really know what is....but my mom wanted me to try out for it, so I did. Next Saturday my dad and I are flying down to FC! We're going to an Orlando Magic Game with Chase and then just hanging out until Tuesday when we drive back with Chase and Kayleigh. Should be pretty fun!
It's where all the COOL people are!
(crickets chirping)
I am so weird.....
(you can still hear the crickets)
Makes me sad.
