Out of Edyn

So... Lots of exciting things are happening in my life at the moment. I'm really going to try and continue to blog, even if it is about nothing in particular. I'll try and go in order here: I am in month two of an 18-month orthodontic treatment. You may have heard of it? It's called braces. UUUUGGGHHH. It's not that bad. I knew that there was gong to be a list of things I couldn't have but I didn't realize how long. That part stinks. Then there's also the pain. Which isn't bad at all. Usually it's after they've tightened/readjusted something. About a month or two ago, we went to our local (if a 2 hour drive is considered local 😂) Cackle Hatchery and bot dozens of chickens. No, that is not an exaggeration. And two ducks. Our little A Gra Mo Chroi farm is growing! I have started a YouTube channel. It is called Return to Edyn. So far, I have all but one video posted but I have a looong queue. And one in editing. :) Go check it out here . Ther...

In four months, I will be turning 13. I loooooooooooooove Agent Carter and Hayley Atwell (Agent Carter actress.) I love anything to do with Marvel. In fact for Christmas this year is like posters, comic books, Marvel clothing, movies, etc. I would love (!!!!!) to get a Twitter account so I can follow my role model. Jesus is my role model, without a doubt, the one that I'm using about though is Hayley Atwell. I have been a Christian for five years. I go to Valley Harvest Ministries in Sunday's and on Wednesday I go to one of the best churches I've ever been to. The first teacher I had there was named, Mrs. Heather. She's one of the best teachers ever. This summer I've moved up and now I'm in youth group with great teachers, Mr. Scott and Mrs. Lori (you can read her blog here ) Griffith. They are great! I am still homeschooled. I have been for.. 3 school years. I DO NOT always enjoy it but there are many upsides. I want to be an author and a costume designer...

Ella fell asleep on me and we had a moment Ella and I having fun The first time Mom got to hold  Ella My mom became pregnant with Ella last year. When Ella was growing in mom stomach, there was a bunch of crazy things going on. Mom's blood pressure was high so she went to the doctor's office and she was supposed to be on bed rest. So our uncle: Marc had to come be Mr.Mom. Well, her blood pressure was still high so they put her in the hospital. It was a tough time for all of us. But sometimes after school we would get to visit her.Well one time the doctors said that she that she was going to have the baby... that DIDN'T happen. So at school we have this special lunch for some good kids called terrific kids. Well Cayde got chosen and Mr.Mom come to sit with Cayde, when he was done with him he came over to were I was sitting and told me that mom, mom was actually going to have the baby. I was so excited I wanted to scream. Now s...

Me at Cape Fear Museum  Fireworks on the beach (Ella's first firework show!) Getting ready to leave, mom got a good photo of the ocean wave  On July 1st- 5th my family and I went on vacation to Wilmington, North Carolina to go to the beach. We left Sunday, July 1, 2012. It was an 18-20 HOUR drive it was suuuuuper long. And the funny part was my dad wouldn't let my mom drive until the ride home :p. So my dad was the only one that drove to Wilmington. And we stopped at a lot of gas station's, we had a lot of snacks and for dinner that night we went to Arby's. That was delicious. We also slept a whole lot! That part was fun cause we basically got to sleep whenever we were tired.   When we got to our destination it was only 9 a.m., but felt later There are 8 beaches in North Carolina, Our first stop was Wrightsville Beach. Intermediately I started grabbing every shell on the beach. I was so excited and plus it was my first time to be on ...

See this optic nerve is thick as a rope but my right one looks like  a string! I was born with my right eye blind. So I can only see out of my left eye. And now I can see a little bit out of my right eye. So I am going to tell you guys the story about My Wonderful Eye.   Mom told me that when I was 2 years old  we went to the doctor and they said I have what's called a lazy eye. So they told my dad to  patch my good eye!  It was like turning the lights out, so I feel asleep alot. So then my dad  didn't do it more than a couple times.   Then  when I was 4, my mom took me to the eye doctor again and they took pictures of my  optic nerve and discovered the one on the right was almost nothing. That's when they  knew that I have Optic Nerve Hypoplasia, where the nerve that connects the eye to the brain doesn't develop. I don't know what happened next so my mom is going to fill in some gaps: When I took Edyn to th...

Hi, my name is Edyn. I was born March 5, 2003. I am going into fourth grade. I have three little brothers and one sister. I am the oldest so they keep me pretty busy most of the time. I love to draw, read,  and I love to be with the adults.    This week we started our new routine, so I get up at 7  in the morning, I have to clean my room, get dressed, brush my teeth and hair by 7:30. Then we come sit at the table while we wait for breakfast.  If we are early we read our Bibles. After breakfast we do our chores until 9. I don't like to get up early, but after 9 we have the rest of the day off. At least for the summer anyway, because this fall we are going to be home schooled.   In the next year we are building a house up in Missouri. We are also going to be building a farm with horses, cows, and chickens. So we are going to have to get up extra early. Ugh! But I am looking forward to having a farm, because   I alw...
