Its amazing what starting out the day with a quick prayer, and short scripture passage can do. For the last few weeks I've been making a point to start the day with a prayer, and reading a chapter of the bible. Anyone who knows me well knows that this is probably hard for me, I'd way rather do my bible study at midnight, than at 6:00 am, but I've noticed that when I start the day out this way, it seems to go so much smoother.
What I've been doing is waking up 5 minutes earlier than I usually do, praying, spending a few minutes writing in my journal, and then read a chapter in my bible, sometimes while i'm brushing my teeth. It's really awesome how waking up 5 minutes earlier in the morning can make so much difference!
Now if I could crack the habit of staying up till 12:00+ and writing, because it's quiet and I'm "not tired" Yeah right Hannah.. :P

This week....
This past week or so has made me question my dream of adopting one or two special needs kids. In feel terrible about it, because I always thought it was a dream that the Lord put on my heart, but this week has been so rough that I'm questioning it. I think that Satan is trying to tempt me, and honestly, right now it's working. As much as I love the little girls, I'm not sure if I could do it.
Ive always believed that God gave me my little sisters to prepare me for adopting some special needs kids, or doing something along those lines. And to give me the heart to defend the special people that these kids are.
I've never felt like this, so unsure about my future and dreams. All I know, is that my parents are amazing. Amazing. To have been so successful in this situation. Amazing.

Bracing myself
Yeah, on Thursday I have to get braces. I am so looking forward to this. ...Not. Except for the fact that I will be able to speak normally after about 6-8 months, and that's a good thing. Other than that, blah.
Oh, and by the way, I know I haven't updated for a long time, aside from my random post a few weeks ago. Um, Texas was awesome! and warm :) The food was really good too. Fajitas are amazing. So we got back from Texas at 1:30 and decided to be at church at 5:00. by the time I got home and went to bed, I'd been up for 43 hours with three hours of sleep in there. ahh!
This week we've just been getting back to normal after such a crazy travel schedule over the past month. and Gearing up for the boys and daddys big trip.
