Working

I got another job! Everyone is always teasing me about having so many jobs. She loves to work. She loves to work. I just want to do something i like doing and I tend to not stop until I find that. Well I started my new job as a mother's helper and I ended up working five hours on top of my regular 8 hour day as a receptionist. I was tired but it felt so good to work hard. I imagine this is what my mission will be like...different of course. I love the feeling of getting into my bed and feeling like I deserve to be there because I worked so hard! I was talking to Bryan about my mission and he said that at the end of every day I should be able to say that I gave everything I had and I want to start living my life like that.

Welcome Luke!

I am so grateful for my new nephew. Luke Steven Bastow. He is beautiful. Emily and Bryan were able to adopt him this weekend. I got to hold him and spend a lot of time with him this Sunday. He has such beautiful brown eyes. He is mean to be part of our family and I am just so excited to have him. He is such a miracle.

Mission Papers

Well I turned my papers in for a missionary.... No, I have submitted my papers for a mission. Everything that I can do has been done. I am just waiting for a bishop's interview and a stake president's interview. Oh I hate waiting...but it is good for me I am sure. Serving a mission has always been in the back of my head...I just didn't know if It would really happen. I didn't want to go on a mission unless I knew it was the right thing, but oh do I know now! I am so excited to get out and serve the people. It is going to be so hard but I am so excited.

New Blog

Well, I decided to finally get on my blog and actually blog but I realized that I forgot my password and have had trouble getting it back together...so here I am with a new one.
