Life is a climb!

     Yesterday I was out with my friends and was going to play.  I decided I wanted to climb the Breadfruit tree, because Logan and Obeline have already done so.  Oberline showed me how and so I made the attempt without mom, dad, or Logan.  Once I was up I felt like I had accomplished something grand.  Then the terrible thought slipped into my mind about how to get down.  I didn't tell anyone that I couldn't get down.  Thankfully Oberline said she wanted to get mom to see what I did!  When they came out she was surprised and frightened.  Then Logan came out and came up.  I couldn't get down and I was a little bit paralyzed.  Many people came around and kept saying I was stuck.  I got down on my belly to slide off but sadly no one was under me so there I hung for about a minute.  It was getting really hard to breathe until a guy put me on his shoulders and got me down.  I said thank you and went straight inside.  I still couldn't breathe very well and I thought no one was in the house so I started crying.  My dad was In his room and and brought me in.  He thought Logan did something and shut the door on him. I told him I was fine just still stunned.  We talked it over and I went back outside a little bit later to play.  Then this morning I went back out and climbed the tree again.  I succeeded, so woo hoo!  

Thank Jesus that I can climb and not be afraid 

The Little Things Of This World

     Today I was trying to help my dad in any possible way.  He has a tendon thingy with his shoulder and can't do very much.  Please pray for him.  

     Anyways Logan, Oberline, and my mom were gone for the next 2 hours.  I was helping my dad out by lowering cords of the roof for the Internet.  It has been a terrible signal, I told my daddy that there was a little ledge under house that I could maybe crawl onto. He imediatly said NO because that would mean climbing off the roof!  So we got a ladder and everything was going good with the project until my dad said he can't get it up high enough.  I volunteered (being the only other person there and also quite curious) to go up on the ledge, climb the ladder with one hand, hold the Natcom thing with some other cords, and put it on the ledge. I made it secure and climbed down waiting for my dad to get a signal. Waiting with all the hope and pride by helping my dad.  He came out and the signal was terrible :(  Then Wilber appeared and was giving him advise so I went back to reading Alice In Wonderland.  All was getting well with the Internet. 

     Then tonight I lay on a bed looking at creative ideas on Pinterest  and the Internet goes |

                                                                                                                                           V

So bye bye Pinterest.  All though I think I stored all of that knowledge in my brain.  But thanks be to Jesus that we even have Internet and that I can blog.  Think about when we get to Heaven the new "Internet" God has.  That's going to be awesome!

     

The Life of a Missionary Kid!

     Sorry everyone... I haven't been writing for a couple months.  I have been sidetracked with family when I was in America.  Anyways back on what I wanted to talk about.  Today I woke up to the bright daylight of Wednesday at 6:25.  I got to read my books I got from the new library, which I love to do in mornings.  We had Bible Study and today it was my turn to read (with some awesome coffee!).  It was just a pleasant morning. I also got to see Misty my horse who is Pregnant! She was so gentle this morning when I groomed her.  I did all my school that was required of me, then I went out with my friends.  We went to the back and started working our tails off.  We were raking leaves with a plastic broken rake, a metal rake, and 2 branches of coconut.  And so my friends Onaldine, Lovely, Oberline, and I went to clean the leafiest yard that ever lived to be:)  the leafs here are bigger than two of my hands!  We raked and raked with my horse in the pile we made...naughty little cutie!  After we were done in a section of yard we burned the pile.  We had a jug of water and everyone had there fill except Misty.  I took my cup, filled it with water, and put it to her lips.  The first cup of water I gave her she was wondering how to drink it.  The next time she grasped the cup and didn't spill a drop.  The water was colder than she normally has so she shivered all over!  My friends thought this was just outrageous and 

laughed.  Then the sun was high and therefore too hot to work in so we went inside and gave them bread.  

   

  Then after we ate my dad and I went to Arise Haiti, also known as Jame's house.  We talked and talked for about 3 hours.  Most people would think I was bored out of my mind, but I love to listen to serious matters.  When we went home on the moto is started sprinkling and the wind was cold so I tried to stay straight behind my dad for shelter.  We reached our house and my friends were waiting to go out and work some more.  Then again we raked and raked and swept and swept.  Lovely wanted it to be black black dirt for my dad.  It was getting dark when these 2 naughty teens came forth and tried to talk English with me.  I could not understand them at all, they were mixing their sounds up.  The girls and I were in a fast mode to complete the work before the moon rose so the boys were a big distraction.  So we started burning our leaves, we could not see if the job was done for it was very dark out.  We were alone until my mom came out saying this was WAY to late.  We had three big fires going, but Wilber started 2 unexpected ones.  My mother was worried because a palm tree was in the fire.  So we got my dad and it was fine ( which I told her).  In the end everyone was happy (except for two blisters of mine), it felt like we have accomplished a great task.  Once our family was in and showered I still smelled like smoke:(. That is the end to this little story I hoped you enjoyed it!  I did not write it just for you but God, for he is always watching you and guiding you like a shepherd, and loving you like a father.  We should all be thankful for a God like him!

Snow!

   Today Logan was singing Christmas songs while I was playing piano.  We were just having fun with music.  We were singing Silent Night, O Come All Ye Faithful, Away In A Manger, and a couple others.  Then my mom needed Logan's brilliant experience with technology, so I went out in the rain that was sprinkling.  I usually wait for my friend (who is home schooled as well) Eva to come over around 2:00.  I started to look at the falling sprinkling rain and I saw SNOW !!  It was just a little little snow,  most people couldn't even see it but it was there!  I can't wait for the new startling thing that God does!

Another birthday from God

It has been almost a month that I have not blogged!  Crazy right?  Anyways I will cut to the chase.  My family is living at my mom's brother's house.  And he has 2 boys, Ethan and Preston.  Preston is almost 6 and Ethan is almost 8!   Preston just learned how to ride his bike with 2 wheels!  So we celebrated at 10 below, the yogurt place.  Recently I turned 11 on July 1, and I got to ride horses with my cousins!  They have never even seen, touched, or ridden a horse!  So that was really exiting, but the best part was they loved it! 

 I was introduced to my new favorite game, Horse Tag!  Funnst game ever!  All thanks to my other cousin, I got lots!  Then my friends came over and did a bike ride with me a long ways.  We also had one big sleepover! 

    God has blessed me with the age of 11, and maybe many more years to come.

Galloping

A little bit ago I went with my brother to go ride my horse to the river.  I can ride her by myself now! 

 We were on our way when it started sprinkling.  Me and Logan both thought CLOTHES!  We need all of our clothes dry before we pack them.  Then I tried to turn Misty around and she galloped 

, galloped, and galloped.  I could barely hold on with no saddle and just a rope attached to her bridle.  I was slipping closer and closer to her neck, I stayed on for about 16 seconds.  Then I fell off under her, she kicked me in the back, and maybe have stepped on me a little.  I was balling, it hurt so badly.  As Logan was running towards me the horse just was happily galloping around and getting so close to me.  As I was going to go under the barbwire fence Misty came at me at just stopped with her tail in the air.  I don't know if she was happy or sorry.  Although I might be a little scared of her I still love her, and I am thankful to have her.

      

   I am still hurting now, but at least God saved me from getting trampled on by a horse.  I praise him for saving me.

Where are you working?

In a couple of days my family is going back to America.  Such a long trip, and SO BORING!!  My heart breaks when I leave Haiti, but I am very exited too!  I wish the whole earth would make a machine and either make a big bridge from America to Haiti, or push Haiti to America.  

  I can't wait to snuggle up with my Gmas'  and play games with my grandpas....like Wahoo!  Also bike riding, and really doing whatever God wants.  I have two different lives that I love So much, so how can I go back and forth?  If God wants us to live in Ametica or Haiti so be it.  " Where are you working?  How can I help?"  Remember that to say to God.
