Am I really that Old??


So, I know that 28 DOESN'T sound that old to most of you out there, but to me it is!!! As I think about my life and where I pictured myself @ 28, I thought that I would be a lot farther along than this... I really thought that I would be married and have about 3.4 kids by now. So, i guess that the Lord had something entirely different in mind for me. So, here I am working with the young women and loving it, and trying to be a better future wife of a returned missionary, but is that really in the plan?? i have to wonder some times... So, life is defiantly not where I planned to be, but as far as the Lord is concerned, I guess I am where He wants me to be, so I will just keep going on, and doing what's right. I guess that sometimes I get weary in doing what I feel I should, so I need to take the council that I heard today to heart, and to just keep going. I am so blessed to be here, at home, learning, in a free country, and just to be alive!! So, when that is all said and done, 28 is not too bad. :)

Grandpa Park



So this weekend is my Grandpa's 80th Birthday... We are having a party for him, and I am excited to see my family. My brilliant aunts and mother decided to put together a scrap book of stories and pictures from us to him. So this is a medow lark. It's song goes, "carrie ann is a pretty little girl." My grandpa used to sing it to me when we would be picking strawberries. (my favorite!) I have come to find out that I was not the only one that he would do this to, but that he would change your name to fit the song of the bird's, no matter what your name is. Wow! I love my grandpa! He is a very patent man, and an example of love to me. So, thanks grandpa!! for all that you do!! I love you!
