Today I felt like I was 8 or 10 again, we had dentist appointments in the morning and my brother and I both shared our sentiments toward the activity. After three great cleanings, we headed to the nearby park for a picnic. Sitting at one of the tables letting the July air sweep by us. Mom and I reminised about when James and I were the ages of the toddlers playing in the sand ahead of us. We all smiled at the memories and laughed in horror at some of the stories remembered.
With still 4 hrs till I had to be at my drivers ed class we made our way to the Spokane Valley Library and I loved spending an hour going over books I had read and was shocked at how big and how many of them I read when I was little! In a short period of time it was evident I needed a card for here again, 10 minutes later I was scavenging the shelves for adventures. As I did my exploration, I listened as mom's read to kids, kids played, and watched a elementary students moved up in to bigger chapter books and talked to librarians about their favorite reads. Selecting two reads one of (which is a Louisa May Alcott one of my favorite authors) I went and checked out at the self check out, I remember when our branh first got the self check out, to me it was the coolest invention even though I didn't entirely know how to use it, despite what I thought.
From the library we went to baskin robbins 31 flavors for ice cream. I smiled to myself watching my brother's face covered in rocky road ice cream. My little brother is now as tall as I am, but at that moment I knew some things never change and in a world like ours that is constantly changing, it's nice to know that my little brother's face will always be covered in ice cream, and getting new coloring books will always turn me into a 5 year old no matter why I am getting them!
Kamola looks great in the snow Guys! I haven't done a blog post in so long. Partly due to the craziness of college life, as fall quarter was insanely busy and partly due to my laptop acting out last quarter. Anyway, now I am back and on a working computer. Happy New Year everyone! Hope the holidays were spent with loved ones and were a restful time for all. I really enjoyed being home for a few weeks. My family and I had a lovely Christmas spending time together and focusing on what really matters. For me it was a time to reflect on how blessed I am and what God is doing in my life. Fall quarter was extremely busy. I took sixteen credits and was apart of a production of The Nutcracker. Through that experience I learned not only technical dance skills, but also that bullies can still exist, even in adults. Working with difficult people is sometimes just apart of life. Overall the good that accompanied that show out weighed the bad and I am thankful for the experience. ...
