Keeping Busy

Praise the Lord I have a job. And you know what? I couldn't have asked for a better one! Not only do I get to work with kids all day, I also get to be the craft lady! So I am stoked for this summer. Until school gets out for all of the kiddies, I will be working at the day care. Then when school is out, the real fun begins and it turns into summer day camp! We get to go on 2 field trips a week and have awesome guest speakers/instructors to teach the kids cool stuff like karate and dancing. This is so exciting!
Also, I'm going to start reading the book, Captivating. I got the guided journal for Christmas but not the book so I've gotta go buy it and then get that started. I have heard from many credible sources that this book is amazing. I'm looking forward to it!
A lot of things are going well, I just need to remember to keep my thoughts focused on the Lord.

Everyone always says the summer after your freshman year is a tough one. I believe it! It's almost as if I'm in a place of limbo. I'm not a kid who needs direction and I'm not an adult who provides for myself. I miss school. It's crazy how at times all I wanted was to go home and now all I want is to go back. This is mostly because things were looking up so much toward the end of last semester.
I love teaching! All of my education classes have encouraged me to dive into it and fall in love with it. It truly is something I am passionate about.
Anyways, although this summer is full of plans to work, work, work (gotta make some money), I have decided to compile a list of non-work things I want to do.
Summer List:

• Fly a kite


• Beach as much as possible


• Treasure hunt


• Read at least 3 books


• Go to Yosemite


• Challenge myself


• Blog once a week


• Make a flag bunting (this also involves learning how to sew.)

Well that's the list so far anyways!
