I am now in my second week of college, I like it. I have more advanced classes and I can feel my career being slowly but surely shaped into what I want it to be.
I miss my family greatly. I would spend endless nights staying up until all hours with my little brother watching funny movies, and playing video games. We would tell stories that would have us both laughing until our stomachs hurt, and we could talk for hours, about the dumbest things.
My little sister and I would have weekend sleepovers, and "sister time". Our fun runs to lime berry, and walmart never got old. Our new found indulgence is the chocolate malted crunch from Carl's Jr, which Emily cannot pronounce and calls it "Choka moka chunk". My dad is my daddy, what else can I say. I love him more than any man in the world. If I was having a bad night then he would help me to fall asleep, even if he didn't say anything at all. He is the one person that could make me cry, just by hugging me, because it would be the last time I hugged him for a long time.
I miss my family more than anything, and I will be taking advantage of going home, and spend every minute with them.
I am extremely blessed to have the family that I do. I am out here in Rexburg for my freshman year, but I am not alone, I have my older brother and his wife to help me with anything I need. Everywhere I go in my life I have my family just a few steps behind me.
If I could tell everyone one thing to always remember, it would be to hold their family close and never let them go. I would never trade my family for anything, and I can see the tender mercies of Christ working their way through my life, just by hearing that ever-so sincere 'I love you' come from each member of my family.
"Families will be together forever". This is the greatest blessing I have ever been given.
