Hey, hey, look-ee here!

So... I know you all have been anxiously awaiting more of the story... haha... at least Sarah has, and that makes me feel special. And... well...

That's too bad.

Hahahahahahahaha! I crack myself up sometimes. But seriously. I don't feel I should write anymore at the moment... it wouldn't be "top quality;" I'm running on 3-ish hours of sleep, three energy drinks, some Dr Pepper, some Mt Dew, popsicles, and... that might be it. I don't even remember what all anymore, and that just might be bad. I will write something, though.

It's that time of the summer... the time everyone always looks forward to... oh yes. I'm talking about Vacation Bible School!!!!! Ours starts tomorrow. I'm really excited, actually. I'm in a couple skits and may be helping out with more. The past two years, I've been one of the games people. They switched things up a little this year, though. The teens (all like five of us) were going to have a class of our own this year. It would've been the first time since I was like six to actually be in VBS, which could have been pretty cool. Maybe. But no matter how cool our intern, Jason, could have made it be... I would totally rather be outside playing crazy games with even crazier little kids. I don't know for sure what I'm doing now, because yesterday, Jason said we probably wouldn't do the class for us. Hopefully, I'll get to actually do something with the kids, though.

I love kids. I don't know, I just do. And personally, I can't see how some people just don't. Last Tuesday and Thursday, I babysat an almost two-year-old for all day. I'm doing it again this coming Tuesday, too. And I've absolutely loved it. I've gotten to catch up on my Nick Jr. shows (that Lazytown one is kinda weird, but I want pink hair like Stephanie's!). I have watched more Dora the Explorer in the past week than I ever had before in my life (that show was coming out about the time my brother stopped watching those shows...). I sang and danced with Joe on Blue's Clues. I rocked a completely-worn-out-from-playing-so-much little girl to sleep, trying not to fall asleep myself. I even changed diapers. But honestly, I have enjoyed every minute of it.

On Thursday night, I went to a devo with some kids (not little ones like I've been talking about, haha, ones my age) from another Church of Christ in town. I wasn't really expecting to have too much fun... Jason and I were the only two that went from my church, and I don't have many really good friends at Central. But it was so good. I had a ton of fun. The point of this, though, was that we talked about kids, since VBS is coming up and all. And one thing that Rob was talking about was how most of us probably didn't particularly like kids or whatever because they could be annoying or just don't know as much as us or lots of other stuff. I almost laughed out loud. I mean, seriously. One of my best friends is five. I have more in common with a five-year-old than I do with half my friends at school. Maybe that just means I'm really immature. Or maybe not, I'm really not sure. Actually, I'm pretty sure that I'm pretty dang immature in some aspects, but whatever. Kids don't really annoy me that much. Unless it's my brother. And the only reason I don't like him is because he annoys me on purpose. We've talked about this before, actually. I told him one day that if he wasn't obnoxious and wouldn't do things he knows I hate on purpose just to bug me, we would get along great. And his response was, "Yeah, I know." And I was like, "Then why do you do it?!" He didn't know. Silly boy.

Kids are just great. I want to be a mom so bad. I really don't see myself doing anything else, except maybe writing (since Mr. Schneider really thinks I should). Sure, I'll go to college and get a degree, but maybe mostly to find a husband. Then, I'll write children's books for my job. Sara Beth already said she'd be my publisher, so I'm all set! I'll write from home so I can be a stay-at-home mom (I'm using those little dash things a lot tonight... oh well), and I'll test my stories out on my own kids... it'll be great. Basically, I love kids. I just do. And I can't wait to have my own.
