L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N

Hi all!

I am going to attempt to summarize the last month of my life in a few short paragraphs.  I have honestly no idea how I am going to do this, but here we go.

  • I went to Boston for the fourth of July and it was incredibly fun and I loved it and we spent ten days in New England and nearly died from the heat, but I also went to Maine just so my dad could say he had been to Maine, and it was frankly a fantastic trip.  My dad got us VIP tickets to see the Boston Pops, so we were mere feet away from one of the best orchestras in the country.  It was absolutely fantastic, as were the fireworks afterwards. 
  • I helped out with VBS at my church and it was exhausting and I was at church until 11 every night and then got up the next morning to do it again but 15 kids reached the Lord and I wouldn't trade that for anything.  
  • I gave up on Nanowrimo because I just didn't have time.  I can't write at night, I literally cannot, or I have a mess of jumbled sentences that don't make sense.  And I've been out of town and again, helping with VBS, and I love my novel and my characters, but this month was not a good month to devote to them. 
  • I found out that two of my best friends in the entire world are coming to visit me for an entire week, one from Louisana and one from Vermont next month!  I've been freaking out about it, it's going to be an amazing time. 
  • I went down to Florida to see my dad graduate from Valdosta State University!  As of now, he officially a PhD level graduate, I'm so proud of him!  He was the very first one to receive his degree that day, and he was honored on stage, it was amazing.  I look forward to seeing what else the Lord has in store for him.  
So that's been my month.  It's been a good one.  I've gone a lot of places and done a lot of things.  And now I'm back to school.  Time goes fast.

Oh, and I'm sixteen now.  That might be sort of important.
