My Life

Daddy, teach me how to make a sand castle!

The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds, and that's what you've given me. That’s what I hope to give you forever. -The Notebook

Nature is one of the many things that God made and nature is my favorite. Story

of……….well ME!!

FAMILY

Earliest Childhood MemoriesMy earliest childhood memory

was when me and Evan used to go trick-or-treating! We used to

be best friends. Like my momand his mom used to be

and still are.

Best FriendBest friends are the people in life who make you smile a

littler bigger, laugh a little louder, and live a little happier.That’s exactly what Rachel Shotwell has given to me.

Rachel and I have been best friends ever since kindergarten. She gives the best advice and my favorite

Quote from her is: Best friends last forever…..boys don’t. IKeep telling her “That’s not true”. But she keeps proving me

Wrong. She’s like my sister that my mom never had. Yes we do get into fights! Everyone does! We always getOver it though. We cant stay mad at each other for long.

I love her!!! Rachel, My wish for you is that this lifeBecomes all that you want it to, your dreams stay big

Your worries stay small and you never need to carry more that you can hold

And while your out there getting where your getting to, I hope you know somebody loves you!!

U GIRL!!

My HeroMy hero is Jesus. My hero is Jesus

because he died on the cross for all of our sins.

I can do all things through him who Strengthens me….Philippians 4:13

CHRISTIANS RULE!(Roxboro Baptist Church)

I love Jesus and God forever and for always.

MY PET

I have a bulldog that is half English half Boxer. He’s a sweet baby boy and he’s about to turn 3. His name is Wally. We found Wally in Zebulon (about 3 hours from Roxboro). He has an electric fence outside of our house and he LOVES it. We also have some of the fence inside the house and he has a collar that if he goes to far he’ll get shocked. (Doesn’t happen often). He loves to jump up on the couch and watch TV. with the family. Steve always gets him hyper because he always wants to play with him. Sometimes Steve hides Wally’s big bone under the couch cushions and Wally sticks his nose up in the cushions and pushes them up with his head and runs away with his big bone!! Victory! I love my Wally!!

3 Goals In LifeMy 3 goals in life are to graduate from college

And high school, get a job that I like doingAnd get paid a good amount of money for,

Another goal would be to raise a family of 5.Three kids and my husband and I. The reason

I want to graduate from college and high schoolIs so I can have a job and make money. Also

You should always love what you do. Your Job should always be something you enjoy.

I want all of my kids to be smart and athletic.I would like for each child to have a talent and that they

are good at their talent

Where Am I Going To Be In5 Years? 20 Years? 50 Years?

In 5 years I will be 18. When I’m 18 I hope to be graduating from high school and making my way to college. I hope to either go to UNC College or Meredith College.

In 20 years I will be 33. When I’m 33 I hope to have a good paying job that I LOVE! I also hope to have about 1 or two children with a loving husband.

In 50 years I will be 63. At 63 I hope to be retired and still with my husband. I hope to be a grandmother from my children.

3 Rules to Live By

If I had 3 rules to live by they Would be:

Doing Christian ThingsSchool Comes 1st

Never Give Up

I chose doing Christian thingsbecause I am a Christian and I

Just dedicated my life BACK to Christ and I’m not going to pretend like I’m not a Christian. ITS WRONG!!

In everything I do, school comes first for me. It always hasAnd if these were the only three rules I could live by then

school would get me through college and get a job and be successful. I also think that never giving up is an awesome rule because if you give up then what was

the point of trying in the first place??

Those would be the most important 3 rules I would have to live by.

Dedication PageI dedicate this project to my papa. I dedicate

it to him because he has cancer right now and has to go to chemo during this week

because he has cancer on his tongue. He’smy inspiration. He’s like my 2nd daddy.

I also dedicate this project to Katie.Usually your “supposed” to call your

grandma “grandma” and I don’t. I callmine by her first name: Katie. Katie takes

care of papa ALL the time. They go for rides just randomly down the road sometimes.

papa treats her so sweet and tells herhow much he loves her everyday.

Hope is the thing...

Hope is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul, And sings the tune without the words, And never stops at all,

And sweetest in the gale is heard; And sore must be the storm That could abash the little bird That kept so many warm.

I've heard it in the chillest land, And on the strangest sea; Yet, never, in extremity, It asked a crumb of me.

- Emily Dickinson

That’s the story of my life……
