Kathleen Lenore
How beautiful you are.
Wreathed in pink,
I couldn't love you more.
You're already such a darling.
Kathleen Lenore
Your eyes are already open!
Active and happy,
Joy already fills your little frame.
I am so proud to call you my niece
Kathleen Lenore
I am amazed at the life
God has given to us,
and the future He has planned for you.
A precious future for a precious girl!

The Last Day
Thursday, January 31, 2013
It's here. My eighteenth birthday. Well, it will be tomorrow, anyway. And that's why I'm writing this. Today is my last day to be seventeen. 17. I can't tell you how much I've enjoyed being 17. In fact, if you think about it, I've enjoyed being every age in my teenage years. (Can't remember actually feeling happy to be nine or anything. haha) I know most people hate being 14 because they were so awkward, sometimes 15 gets lumped in for the same reason. But while I was ridiculously awkward during those years, I didn't really notice it--or at least I didn't care. I just really enjoyed 14. I thought 15 was GREAT! Being 16 was amazing. And 17? Let me show you what made being 17 wonderful.
What I did during this last year:
My 1st birthday party!
Senior year (the spring part of it)
My last semester of choir
The choir Disney trip! (This is sol much fun!)
Graduating
Hawaii
Surfing
My first mission trip to Boston!
Visit to PA to see Ryan, Noelle, and Julianne
Getting to see the Builtmore Estate
The start of "real college"
One of my most enjoyable semesters of college
--made possible by the best English class led by the best teacher
--and also by two friends who got me through ridiculously tough classes.
Surprising Justin in WI after he got sworn in
Wrote my first 50,000 word novel in 30 days!!!
Getting my sister back for a month!
Having my whole family here on Christmas day!
Getting my license
Do you understand a little better? Haha. Of course, I could have done most of those things regardless of my being 17, but there's just something...There's something in the number 17. There's a special connotation when you say "I'm 17." There's a lingering idea of still being "young." Not in a sense that now I'm done for, and I'll never have fun, and I'm suddenly old. Just the idea that you're no longer a kid. You might be young-er, but you're not young. You're not little. 18-year-olds vote; they join the army...hey, they can buy stuff off of infomercials. Haha! This last year has been the most growing I've ever done in my life. The most spiritual growing, the most emotional growing, and the most growing I've done as in learning new things and getting older. Trying to go back and think about the beginning of being 17...I don't even feel like the same person. Piles of things transpired over the summer that I feel like it was a year in and of itself. Yes, only three months being a year. Sounds weird, but that's how I feel. I will miss 17, the number, the label, and the idea. I will miss being able to say "I'm 17." I'm sad to being turning *another* page in my book. I know that's what life is about, but it doesn't make it any easier. So many pages have turned this year...I just want to read these pages a little longer.
Goodbye 17! It's been the best, spending time with you!

Gorgeous Day!
Wednesday, January 30, 2013
The weather is gorgeous today! Seriously, I just want to be outside. It's so windy, and I love the wind! I'm just going to have to take a walk or take some school work outside.
This lovely weather combined with copious (amazing word in my opinion) amounts of sleep has energized me in knew ways. I'm ready to knock off everything on my to-do list and put new things on to be checked off.
I feel rather like listening to Disney music and watching Mr. Rodgers right now. :D Like, I'm seriously so perky and ready to do anything. I do have Disney music on at the moment (currently playing is Best of Friends), and it's adding to my mood. By the way, I'm smiling as I write this.
Yes, it's a good day. And I'm not letting thoughts of my Bio class tonight distract me or get me down. There are too many good hours in this day to be worrying about later. Haha!
Well, I only wanted to jump in here and write all this 'cause there was no way to condense it properly into a facebook status. OH! And I will be doing either some editing, brainstorming, or writing today! :D
Check in with you later and I hope you enjoy this day as much as I am! :D
