"We're Back!..reunited and it feels so good.."

Hello blog world, for those who actually read my blog! I had forgotten I had this this thing..and so im going to try, from now on, to keep up with it. (They keyword here is try). Well, its late, and of all the times to be blogging, now is proabably not the best time. Im not sure where to start...how about, this weekend. So I went to Baylor for a campus visit, and I realized how much I miss living on campus, and being around other college folk. Its been my second visit to BU, and honestly, im not sure if I'll go there. its my 2nd choice, A&M being my first. But this is exciting to see what the Lord has planned for me, kinda scary too. I may even still be at TCC next fall. Def. not my first choice though. But I know there is a school out there for me, with my major and minor, and God knows where and when. I also realized that I am blessed with having Matt and Sarah leading my college group, and the small intimate community I have with them and the other guys in the group. I've been kind of discouraged with being in Keller, and having friends move left and right it seems, and having all the financial struggles. so Baylor was a little bit of a refesher. THis weekend was also our church's Global Impact Celebration. One thing that hit me hard was hearing the lady speak about the afterschool program, Beach Club for kids. She mentioned a little girl named Athena, who always carries around a teddy bear, BerryCheery, and I realized, "Hey! that kid goes to my daycare!" Im pretty sure there are no other Athena's who carry around "BerryCherry". THe lady talked about how she prays with Athena and how precious she is. Athena is one of the sweetest kids at my daycare, who brought her bible one day, always wants to make a friend, and asks all of us teachers everyday, quite formally "HOw are you doing today?". I know her parents are divorced, and her mom is a drug addict, and I feel bad for not being more open to talk to her. I know there are so many kids at my daycare who are hurting, parents divorced, so many with one cheating on the other, kids with several step-parents, and siblings, abuse of all kinds, parents who dont care, foster kids,and much of the time, I am impatient, unwilling to talk, and just want to "do my job". I should listen to these kids, and try to talk them, rather than yell and raise my voice, and tell them to go do something else when they want to talk to me.

So things im going to work on this week:
1.Patience at work, less yelling, more talking, a softer heart,and prayer for kids and co-workers.
2. Hope in the Lord to take care of my school, summer, and friendships
3. Being thankful and grateful for everything the Lord has blessed me with and less compalining and feeling sorry for ones self.
4. Dilligence with school work and trying to keep up with this blog :D
