eww:(

I just ate a rootbeer float. I think I'm gonna go barf now. bye

I'm a different person

I've completely changed over this last week! Nothing in my life will ever be the same. I will see the world differently, I'll learn to do things that I thought were impossible for me to do. The love of God has taken its toll on me. Some people will call me nuts, and be angry with me, but that's the most of the fun of it. I'm learning not to care about my life and reputation more than the fact that other people need help more than me. The only thing that matters the most to me right now, is my relationship with my Lord, Jesus Christ. I will no longer hide from my fears of life, because those fears are nothing compared to the fears that Satan has of me and my best friend. Satan is happy that none my relationships in my life have been strong, but now I have a relationship that will not be broken. And there's nothing he can do about that.

Before this last week, I was not ashamed to proclaim that I was a Christian, but there was always something missing. I did not quite acknowledge that it was missing, because of my pride. I knew Jesus loved me, but I could feel that He wanted me more. I did not know that there was a way I could come closer to him. By taking this visiting trip to my mother's house I came closer to my sister Heather and what she was all about. When I saw her one day "drunk with the Holy Spirit," she asked,"Want some?" of course.

It was amazing! I was literally drunk! I had no alchohol and there was no age limit!:) I could barely walk 'cause the Holy Spirit weighed down on me and it was hard to control my movement:) I spoke in tongues too. It sounded like jibberish to me, but Jesus could understand me. After the intoxication wore off, I was exhausted! I slept well that night.

soooo... that was my spiritual birthday. August 15, 2006.

Satan's been attacking me constantly, but I'm not letting him get to me. He hates it when I worship. I love making him angry. God's word is really helping me defeat him. I feel FREE! WHEEEEEEEEEeeeeeee:)

A tribute to mom...

...because she asked me to mention her.

I love my mom, and I forgive her for all the things she's done. It was her birthday 2 days ago! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM!!

I'm so happy when I have time to hang out with her. God Bless you, Mommy:)

We went berry picking:)

Aimee and Acacia covered themselves in blackberries and pretended they had eaten little children:)

I harvested them for the icecream that evening. mmm

It was fun:)

I learned how to upload photos... finally. ~

Caden Xavier Elliot is the name of the new child in the family! He was 8lbs and 6oz:) I asked Bethany to post some pictures on her blog. Hopefully she can find time to do that:)
