Just Love Each Other

Lauren and Declyn eating pancakes.
Today we had to babysit my mom's friend's daughter, Lauren.When she came over I chose to wake up at six in the morning to help my mom. Anyway, it was like Declyn woke up just for Lauren, because a couple minutes later, he woke up. So my mom said, "Hey Buddy, you woke just in time to see Lauren." And he said, "Yep." Lauren's mom left, so we watched "Curious George" and "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse." When they were done watching TV they started talking to each other and Declyn was like "I have tootles you know." And Lauren said, "Really? I want to see!"
So they went in the bedroom, so Declyn could show Lauren his tootles. Then I finally went in there and told them to get the tootles and take them in my room because Cayde was sleeping. Ahhhhh man!  Cayde awoke right as I got them out of the room!
 When it was was breakfast time Declyn had to sit by Lauren. A couple minutes after we sat down at the table  Declyn was talking instead of eating and Lauren had already taken a bite and Declyn didn't. Lauren didn't want to take a another bite until he did. So when he was half way through his pancake and  I said, "Are you going to eat your pancake?" So she looked at Declyn and looked at me and said "Yes." After breakfast they went to play together. Then we tried watching "Winnie the Pooh" because Lauren likes Pooh Bear, but that didn't work out too well! In the middle of the movie both of the younger ones jumped up and went to play.  And they played and they played and they played, until finally it was lunch time!
 At lunch time Lauren didn't want to sit next to Declyn! She wanted to sit next me. Isn't that astonishing?! I thought they wanted to be together.
Right after lunch we had rest time.And they fell  asleep really fast. "ZZZ"
 I thought it was pretty awesome to see them together agaim (They have not seen each other in a year.)

The Wonderful Eye

By Edyn J.
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...

Going to North Carolina

By Edyn J.
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 ...

"She Laughs Without Fear of the Future"

By Edyn J.
"God has placed the best things in life on the other side of fear." (Will Smith) Man. What a summer. This summer I got to go on my first mission trip. And I just want to share a little testimony about my experience. I am a very shy person. Very. Shy. I tend to be the one, kind of sitting off to the side, avoiding conversation and...socialness. (Hello, social anxiety.) I don't like being outside of my comfort zone. I love my comfort zone; it's comfortable. That being said...I certainly did not want to go on this trip. It was wayyyy out of my comfort zone. Now, my youth leader has been wanting me to go for the past two years and I knew she was super excited because this year I was finally eligible. "You are going." She would tell me everytime it was brought up. We started having our meetings on Wednesday nights. I was at every one, (Well, except for one but I didn't have a choice.) Three weeks until we leave we started having meetings on Sunday a...
