Happy Birthday, Charlie!

      Hi guys and girls!  Today is my little brother, Charlie's, BIRTHDAY!!  He is now 8 years old.  I love my little brother and am glad that he is my brother.  He is cute, funny, has the cutest voice, loves doing tickle fights with me (when he's getting tickled and not me, I don't like getting tickled:) ), makes the funniest words (like words that you've never heard of in this world), and in the end he's just plain neat-o!
       We decided to start school early this year and we started on the August 12.  I am officially in 8th grade!  Last year was a jump for me, with all the extra school and such.  And I knew that this year was going to be tuff to, but it was still a jump.  I'm starting to wonder, "How many times am I going to be jumped on?!?".  Zoe and Wil are now both in 6th grade, Charlie in 4th, and Lily in Kindergarden!  She really likes school, though she has plenty of troubles.  On the second day of school, something hit me.  Zoe, Wil, and I are all in middle school!  So I did some math and found out that we will be in middle school together for one year, until I go into high school, and then be with me in high school for two years!  You all are probably thinking, "Well, Sammy, what are you going to do when you get to college?".  Well, the truth is that I'm not sure if I will go to college.  I'm thinking of getting married, having kids, and just being a mom!  But, I have been thinking very  seriously about getting a college education so that way I can become a missionary.  I feel like God is calling me to become one, but I don't know where.  I'm all so thinking about becoming a photographer. :)
         This past month we have been remodeling our kitchen and it is pretty much done.  We need to paint some doors, do a little touch up painting, and some other things.  While we were doing this weren't able to have any families over for supper, lunch, or any thing else.  Well since we are basically done we have had one family over and on Saturday we will have three families over!
           Sorry that I haven't posted in a long time.  It has been a little on the crazy side.  Hope to post to you soon!

An Update

      Hi!  Sorry that I haven't been "blogging" as much as I should.  Lately Zoe, Wil, Charlie, and I have been playing soccer.  Which for us homeschoolers, it is good for us since we don't have a gym class (except for 15 push-ups, 20-30 sit-ups, which I hate, and 50 jumping-jacks).
      This Thursday is Charlie's 8th birthday!  Which means no school!  He is so excited!
       Please pray for my little sister, Poppy.  She has a small fever and she has been a little squirt.  Pray that my parents will have patience in taking care of her.  She can be difficult when she's not feeling well.
