$12 well spent

I just finished watching Temple Grandin.

If you have never seen it, I suggest going to Walmart and getting it. It will be a well spent $12 :)
Clair Danes does an exceptional job playing Temple Grandin, who is an autistic girl who ends up becoming a college professor.
It's a true story & the real Temple Grandin has written a few books and I fully plan on reading them asap! 

On another note, I have a turtle....

Timothy found him in the front yard a few weeks ago :)

Daily Reminders

"All flesh is like grass and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls, but the word of the Lord remains forever."  -1 Peter 1:24-25

"And he who was seated on the throne said, behold, I am making all things new. Also he said, write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true. And he said to me, it is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment. The one who conquers will have this heritage, and I will be his God and he will be my son." -Revelation 21:5-7


I try to write a card to at least one person in need from church per week, and while searching for scriptures meant to encourage someone who recently lost her dad, I came across these...and they stuck. I read them every morning and every night.

Josh asked me yesterday if I was afraid to die.
My answer? yeah. slightly.
I'm afraid of pain cause I'm a slight wimp.
But I know where I'm going when I die so that makes me look forward to it in a way.
I just would like to achieve a few things in life if God allows it :)
