lord help us here.

So first off i'd like to congratulate my amazing wonderful neighbors, for their SOON to be amazing gorgeous baby girl from Ethiopia! :) I've caught little smeared faces because the law says no one can see pictures but the adopting family, but i've seen what those children look like, and oh my hamburger helper, THEY ARE BEYOND gorgeous!! But on top of that, they already have gorgeous family, two boys and a little girl. I've literally never seen a family this gorgeous, and I'm not just saying that because she's reading this, I'm being beyond serious. They go to court Thursday, (Wednesday night for us) so I"m praying I wake up to an AMAZING email saying little O is theirs!! gosh I can't wait until they bring her home. Over a two year long adoption, I can only imagine the physical and emotional toll it has taking on this family, I've seen a lot withing the past year that they've been my neighbors, but one thing I can say about this family is, THEY ARE DEFIANTLY GOD SEND! Even when it looked like when they took a step forward, that they got knocked four steps back, they continued to smile and keep hope because they taught me that Christ wouldn't have brought them this far into the adoption to take their little girl away, and I'm also extremely thankful that they've shared their religious point of view with me, made my faith grow, A LOT! and it's made my change my whole out look my future, thanks to them. Of course my mom has said the same things that they have, but I mean as teenagers, we don't really listen to our parents, I'm just so excited for this family, so in the middle of this WAVE of excitement,

MOM GOES TO DOCTOR
yes, my mom went to the doctor, though she hates it, and it was like a slap in the face, literally! within a 13-15 hour span, she was admitted to the hospital and put through surgery, leg surgery that is. She's doing good, she's asleep and is expected to be released from the hospital Thursday morning


Dear Lord,
I'm aware that I haven't always been the perfect Christian, but I've tried, and yes, I could have tried harder, but I was younger and stupid, I should have continued living my life for you like my mom raised me to do. I'm sorry that I've taken things for granted, and I'm sorry for the wrong things I never should have done, I'm sorry for not devoting my ENTIRE life to you twenty-four/seven. BUT Christ, thank you, for everything, for everything you do, for everything you give up. Thank you for the amazing people in my life, and thank you for finally slapping my upside the head and making me get my butt back on track. Jesus Christ, My lord and Savior I love you, and thank you so much for everything you've given me and everything you do, and i PRAY from the bottom of my heart that you can and will for me for the sins i've committed, in Christ name i pray, amen<3
