and I have been lacking to say the least.

Remember that semester that I didn't blog at all? (well, maybe once?) I just was drowned by nursing school! I am currently in what seems to be one of the best semesters of my college career. It's what nursing students call "J2." That simply stands for "junior year semester 2." As nurses, we just like to apprieviate things. :) This semester I am doing Pediatrics (kids) and maternity nursing! I will also been in labor and delivery for a week, also! I am super excited. ANYWAY, I didn't write this blog to tell you boring details of my school life. I wanted to share with you a special addition to my life :

BARLI.

He's a 2.5 lb yorkie poo!

and I just love showing him off!


Barli was my huge suprise (and three weeks early) birthday/valentines day gift from Jake! I live on campus, so Barli lives with Jake until I move off campus in May. He's seriously the funnest/cutest/most perfect puppy ever!

I would like to add just the day before Jake got me a baseball signed by David Muphy from the Texas Rangers! He was on campus doing "meet and greets" however, I had class (yay nursing!). So I pretty much was just spoiled as could be last week. Now it's Monday morning, and my case of the Mondays is horrible! I have a test a week from tomorrow, and no motivation!

I was blessed to be able to go to Duncan for the dnow weekend! I loved seeing old friends and making new ones! That Oklahoma town will always have a special place in my heart! We learned tons about abiding in Christ, and what that looks like. Andy Harrison (who was also my bossman at falls creek) spoke and something he said that stuck with me was "abiding in Christ means valuing His reputation more than your own!" Chew on that. Apply that.

One last thing, there is a girl who was apart of the youth at my church for a while. Her name is Haley. Last week Haley and 30 (ish) other students where involved in a bus accident in a community near Belton. Most students left the hospital the day of the accident with minor injuires. However, Haley has two crushed vertebrae and has not been able to move from the waist down since the accident. Her chance of every having movement/being able to walk is 1%. Join me in praying for her healing.

Happy Monday!
XOXO.
miss you Mamoo.
