The Best Summer
I got into Westminster College MAT program. I am still very proud. I have gotten top grades and hope to still grow in my program. The program has been better then I can ever imagine. It is nice to get out and talk to people that are so intellectual in every aspect. I am so very blessed.
I got to work with my brother Josh. I did not realize how much we have in common, and how much we think, work, and act the same. I have realized that all of my siblings are truly my best friends.
I got to go to Austin. After an exhausting summer, I was able to see some really close friends! Chuck and Sandy. They were good for my soul. I got to relax and just have fun. They were good for my husband's soul as well. I have never seen him smile so much for months (He will admit that). We are so grateful for wonderful friends who care about us, and we care about them.
The Hardest Summer
After going to school, I realized how much more anxious I have become. Money has become more of an issue and my stress level has sky rocketed to new heights. I noticed that I have been more snippy and less patient (kinda like pregnant amanda ha-only no excuse because my hormones are not off set because I am not pregnant.). That is strange for me. I am grateful for a caring family who forgives almost instantly if I do something that is not becoming to my nature.
I also had to learn this summer. I have learned how much family can be their to help you in your times of need. The Campos Family has come so often to watch Olivia, when we had no money to pay anyone. Especially David and Carol. They were my lifesavers this summer. My mother (who also had a hard summer) has stood up and helped us with many things that I cannot tell you how grateful we are for. Josh and Merilee's Family has watched Olivia many times, and truly makes her feel quite at home when ever she is around.
The Saddest Summer
As you might have seen, my grandmother died last month. It was extremely hard on me and still effects me today. I love her very much and will really miss her. She was one of the best people I have ever known. Scratch that. She was the best person I really ever known. I was lucky to have her in my life, and am grateful that she is around looking after me-even after death.
So in conclusion, you can tell that this has been my hardest, saddest and yet my most happiest summers I have had. I will never forget this summer and the adventure we had. Yes, we did not chase mountain lions, climbed a huge hill to see a tree, or look for a lost scout in the middle of night. However, we have learned more then ever this summer, we have learned to become closer to one another. I love my family very much. I am grateful for this life. What a wonderful life
