January 16th and 17th, 2014

Yesterday was such a long day, and had so much going on that I completely didn't have time to write a blog. After going through both of these days, it has made me realize that I need to be thankful for rest. Over this past year, I have battled mono, and it still has lasting effects on me.

After last semester, I realized that sometimes I just need to lay down and relax, take a nap or two, and just chill.

Today, as I got my official letter into the Teacher Education Program here at Anderson University, I realized that all the time, hard work, late nights, and break downs paid off. I was one more step closer to achieving my dream of becoming a teacher for those who sometimes can't speak for themselves.

Years ago, I always asked why God placed me with an Autistic brother. Why me and my family of all of the millions of people in the world...it made me realize that this was exactly where I needed to be.

Overall, after the hard work, the tears and the stress I can finally relax in knowing that I have made that one step closer to my goal.

2 Chronicles 15:7 

"But you, take courage! Do not let your hands be weak, for your work shall be rewarded.”

Keep striving, don't lose hope.
