Shine your light, show the world.

I despise moving. Today is moving day and I'm exhausted. It's only 9:42am. Gross. My life lately has been great. I am a lucky girl. I have had the chance to live with my aunt and uncle for 11 days. Bless their souls for letting me stay during "homeless week" in Provo. It has been the best 11 days. I love being around family and it's so nice to be in a home that's not an apartment or I'm paying rent. Things are just a calm normal. We eat dinner every day, we pray together every night, and we have Family Home Evening every Monday. It's been such a blessing. I have been a little bit domestic and made my own pillows even!

I also cut my hair. It was time for a chance and I LOVE it! It's crazy to have short hair again. 

I love technology. My family is so far away it's hard to get interaction that's not over the phone. Monday Cal was in Gainesville, My parents were at home, and I was in Utah. We did Google "Hangout"and were able to see each other. I am so grateful for technology!

My next post will be from my new apartment! Exciting and scary all at the same time. I love new change and hopefully this will be a good one.

A Letter to Asher Rae.

Baby Asher, Your momma is currently in labor and in a few hours you'll make your grand debut into this world. From the moment I knew you were coming I was in shock and how much my heart could grow. I work with sweet children all day and I love them so much. The love I already have for you is so different. You'll be the first grandchild of my parents, and you'll be my first ever niece. You're coming into a world that is incredibly hard and difficult. With your amazing parents in your life you'll be taught how to be strong and to be valiant in all circumstances. Your dad, my brother, is an excellent human being. He is dedicated, he is a dreamer, he is a hard worker, and he will be the most amazing father. Your mom is so beautiful. She is loving, she is patient, and she loves your dad so much. Your grandma, my mom, is SO excited for you. She will love you and spoil you, but she will also help you when things get hard. Your Grandma Forsyth is a tough woman. The toughes...

COVID

The world of COVID-19 has been a world I never imagined possible. While this time has taken away so many things I am grateful for the things it has given me. I've found my new normal and for someone who loves structure that has been a huge relief. I don't feel the need to do as much. I don't feel as rushed. I dropped my ipad on the tile today and cracked the screen pretty badly and I didn't even cry. Things have become things and my trips to Target don't seem as crucial anymore. I've been sewing. I thank my grandmas and my aunts for their love of sewing that is now ingrained on my heart. I watch a lot of TV. I do a lot of cooking. Who knew?

Three Days, Two Years

In three days, you can cram for a exam. In three days, you can drive halfway across the United States. In three days, you can get a decent summer tan. In three days, you can have a fight with a friend, and makeup. In three days, you have almost gotten through half of a week. In three days, you can teach your dog a new trick. In three days, you can change a life. In three days, someone can change yours. In two years, you can receive a college diploma. In two years, you can train for, and run a marathon. In two years, you can reach a goal. In two years, you can serve a full time mission. In two years, I'll have graduated from High School. In two years, I'll be finishing up my AA at the community college. In two years, I'll start applying for a University. In two years, I might have a better idea on what I want to do in life. In two years, I'll be making my own money. In two years, my weight will have changed. In two years, life will be different. This week has been crazy...
