Man! It's been a while! This quarter has just flew by and it has taken all of my energy. I have much to update you with. Be looking forward to an update blog and a full blog just dedicated to my San Francisco Mission Trip.
Today, I will be introducing, hopefully, a new weekly blog post titled, "Rose, Thorn, Bud." In my small group we call these "Happies and Crappies." In these post I will talk about a Rose, something that happened during my week that was great, a thorn, something that was not so great, and a bud, something that I am looking forward to. I hope to post these once a weekend because I feel that it will provide good closure to the previous week and a great start to the next.
So... without further adieu, here is my first "Rose, Thorn, Bud."
Rose
This summer I will be working for my church again, full time. My brother called me this week and asked what my work schedule was going to look like? I told him that I will be working everyday except for Saturdays and Mondays. He asked me if I would like to nanny for my nephew, Keegan, on Mondays. I am beyond excited for my Mondays with that little nugg now! I am warning you now that there will be a surplus of photos of him scattered about this blog that summer.
Every Tuesday I drive about 40 miles to an elementary school that I mentor at. My time there is drawing near and this last week with them I had to report an incidence that I was informed of because I felt that the child might not be completely safe at their home. It was difficult because I didn't know if all that I heard was true but I had to take the precaution in case there was something going on and this child was in danger. I am nervous to return next week because I will be heart broken if I was right. I have been praying for this child's safety and I hope you do to.
Bud
This year is drawing to an end and I am excited to go home for a few months, but I will really miss the people I have met up here this year. I am looking forward to this weekend because my cousin Caroline may be coming up to visit me. If she does we will probably go downtown and visit some of our favorite places. Oh! and another bud is that I only have 4 more hours of my Shakespeare class! Woo Hoo!!
Well, that's it. My first Rose, Thorn, Bud.
