The notes of a Champion.

yeah. I try.

I love people.

So... BETH HAD HER BABY! Now, i realize that everyone says that all babies are "the cutest ever" but i must say, i HAVE seen some funny lookin' babies. Beth's little angel is not one of those. This baby really IS the most adorable baby girl I have ever seen. She's 6 lbs 4 oz and 20 inches long. That's almost 2 pounds lighter than I was. Sheesh. What was I? A hog? A heffa'? Anyway. Maybe when I get in touch with Jenny I can get some pics up here for you. Because, let me tell you. Avery (maybe Averie... i don't know) Jolene is a darling child.

This brings me to another subject.
Lindsay has decided that I have reached the epitome of nerd-ness.
I asked her about pokemon. Yes. I played pokemon. I have 1 brother. He's my only sibling. We lived in H-ville for 2 years and I had like... 2 friends that I didn't see very often. What else was I supposed to do? Exactly. Enter stage Left: Pokemon trading cards.

I also got up at 5am to watch pokemon on tv. Please don't hit me.
I think i may make a list of people I love. Don't feel bad if you're not on here. I'm like.. tired. I had an exam at 8am this morning. Lindsay and I think we rocked it. I only need a 71 to make an A in there. I think i did it. I only need a 43 in Psychology to make an A in that one. I am not motivated to study.

well. here we are.

Momma. She's like... the sane one. I need her.
Daddy. He's the crazy one. No explanation needed.
Adam. He knows me way too well. The most common phrase out of his mout is "I KNEW you were gonna say that.
Emily. She's like my sister. I've known her since we were 2... we're so different and yet compliment each other so well.
Christina. She's 10 days younger than me... and while we may be 900 miles away from each other, she's still there for me. I can complain to her and ask her advice and she's always able to lift my spirits.
Melanie. She awoke in me an imagination that keeps me going when i'm uber-bored. And I don't think i've EVER been mad at her.
Lauren. She keeps me entertained. Always. Whether we're in the car and she's scaring me to death with her driving or she's dancing... there's never a dull moment.
Suphia. She has a pool. Okay, i love her for more than the pool... she also has goats. okay... anyway. This girl can make me laugh at anything. Except maybe liver. Because liver is nasty.
Zach. He's stuck around for how long? He's put up with me, my dad, and my brother. Something has to be said for that... and while he's clueless(hello, he's a guy) he has some sense in his head. I'll let you know when I find it, though.
Beth. She's fairly sane, down to earth and loves dogs. I mean, can you think of any one else you can have this conversation with: "Beth, I saw a stray cat and I thought of you!" I don't think so.
Jenny. She's saved my life. Even if she seems clueless, she has a good head on her shoulders and a love for Jesus in her heart. I've watched her grow, make mistakes and triumph over them... She is a wonderful blessing
Kelsey. "Hi, I'm Kelsey.. And I'm blonde" I love this girl. Why? Who else can I make those horrid family movies with!?
Jessica. *insert deperate and horrible attempt at a southern accent here* My cousins... they have to be the coolest people on earth.
Laura. She guided me through thick and thin. From the age of 11, she's taught me, watched me, and helped me grow.
Tarra. My twin. That's all I cant hink to say about this wonderful girl.
Priscilla. People always think she's so quiet. But I know better. Oh yes, I know better.
Mac. This boy... wow. He totally put up with my whining for years. No wonder I never see him anymore... lolz. He's so busy doing wonderful things, i can't begrudge him for that!

that whole "To everyone else, I LOVE YOU" thing is true, but not enough. You ARE in my hearts.
to my new friends:

Lindsay
