and my joy is unexplainable.

Sometimes I forget that all I have to do, is keep it simple. Simplicity is something I've always loved, why did I loose track of it so quickly?

Love.
Miss you Mamoo.

and everytime I look at you, it's like the first time.

miss you mamoo.

and it's happy.

and I'm exhausted.

Halfway through my third semester at UMHB.
Life is slightly different as a sophomore.
Classes take a little more time, which was expected.
We all live out in a little village, which is SO fun.
UMHB becomes more home-like everyday.
I've been blessed with the best roommates ever.
I've been learning a lot about life lately.
Long walks have become my favorite thing.
Life is completely real, and it's slightly scary.
God is completely satisfying, which is comforting.
It's Autumn, feels like the holidays are coming!
I'm probably the happiest little girl on this planet.
(even when I'm an emotional teenage wreck.)

Love.
Miss you Mamoo, more than anyone knows.

and life is happy.

HAPPY stuff is happening EVERYWHERE! Last weekend I went to visit one of my favorite people, KAYLA BROWN! HOLLA! We celebrated Jalyn's first birthday - she is so precious. Check out some photos on the good ole, ever trustworthy facebook! We played with new toys on Saturday, and just hung around and talked, ate dinner, got a snowcone. AH! So happy! I love them, period.

This week has been pretty laid back. I've been just doing the usual, lots of happy moments. One night in particular was super happy. We (Jake and I) were throwing the frisbee, walking around, etc. We decided we wanted to find cru cabs (bikes on campus that anyone can use at anytime). The search began... we found one very quickly then spent the next HOUR trying to find another one. It didn't work out. We walked alll over campus, literally. Didn't find one. But it was an adventure. Always an adventure when he's around right?

Going to Tolar this weekend. Jeremy and Jeffie's wedding sunday! HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY! TOLD YOU! IT's HAPPY! I'm living the dream, folks.

Love.
Miss you Mamoo.

and it's life.

let me catch you up.
1. microbiology is from the devil himself, but God is still good.
2. I may or may not have gotten my nose pierced. :-)
3. I am so anxious to see Kayla, Jalyn and Janelle - all in the next two weeks!
4. UMHB is still amazing -- these people are incredible.
5. Jake still lives in Belton; it never gets old and neither does he :-)
6. Every Monday I look forward to watching Regis and Kelly with my roommate.
7. I am addicted to mac & cheese --- whoops.
8. One of the fish Jake and I got died, it was sad.
9. The weather is all of the sudden fall-ish and I ADORE IT.
10. I miss my family :(















love.
miss you mamoo.

and which way am I moving?

I love Paul and his letter to the Galatians. It is challenging and applicable. 

"For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ." Galatians 1:10

This verse stings, huh? We are either moving in one direction or the other. We are striving to please man or we are striving to serve Christ. There is no middle ground. ONE OR THE OTHER. In everything I do, I should be seeking the approval of God. I should be striving to honor Him in everything. Every action. Every homework assignment. Every conversation. EVERYTHING.  NOT the approval of man. In this society we live in, we are taught since Jr. High to be well liked and get the approval of our peers. We all know how that goes. We make decisions based on what others will think, and that doesn't stop after Jr. High ends.  It's not about anyone but God. Do you believe this? Do you agree with Paul? prove it.






Love.
Miss you Mamoo.
