Please read it is so sweet and true.    THE VIOLET Down in a green and shady bed, A modest Violet grew. It's stalk was bent it hung it's head. As if to hide from view. And yet  it was a lovely flower it's colors bright and fair it might have graced a lovely bower instead of hiding there. But there it was content to bloom in modest tints arrayed and there diffuse it's sweet perfume within the silent shade. That lead me to the this valley go.This pretty flower to. That I may also learn to grow in sweet humility.               - Jane Tyler http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/theramblingsofayoung/568267/ Thu, 31 Jul 2008 19:12:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/theramblingsofayoung/568267/ Why haven't I put  an entry in a long time? Well because I have been SUPER BUSY lately. Well on June 25-29 we went camping It was so fun. We went on a mammoth cave tour (Which was awesome).  W e also went swimming and I went horseback riding. We cooked all our food over the fire which was cool, and OF COURSE WE MADE SMORES YUUUUMMMM. Then on the 4th of July we went to see fireworks at our civic center. We also got a dog it is a full breed lab he is 8 weeks chocolate brown with blue eyes, and we named him Solomon. We also have been busy because we are moving to a little house in Macon county. We are going to live there until we get our cabin built on it. I am happy because the library is right next to the little house. It is a cute very very small town that we are moving to. We have been packing and cleaning alot. Until we write again.                    Brittnee http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/theramblingsofayoung/563098/ Sat, 19 Jul 2008 15:00:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/theramblingsofayoung/563098/ 1.)

Well I made up my mind. The answer is: Yes I will go. I want to go and be a Doctor or nurse. I am trying to figure out which one of these I want to be: ob/gyn,  labor/ delivery nurse ,or midwife. I am going to go Because I love to learn and help people. But when I marry I am going to settle down and have children. I think young people should get all their ambitions brushed off before they get married. Don't get me wrong I want to  court and get married and have children. I have always wanted to be a mom ( I do want 8-10 children).Well leave me a comment and tell me what you think.

So here they are: "Am I in the mood for a good story of course I am in the mood for a good story" by: Winston Churchill "You never graduate from the school of learning" by: Bryan Lewis (my dad)  "To the world you might be someone, but to someone you might be the world" by: unknown "If the people we love are stolen away from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them. Buildings burn, people die, but real love is forever." -Taylor Hanson "Someone out there holds the key to my heart and until I find him and it's unlocked, it will remain half empty" "If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you."- Winnie the Pooh "A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out." Walter Winchel 'If all my friends were to jump off a bridge, I wouldn't jump with them, I'd be at the bottom to catch them." "The turning point in the process of growing up is when you discover the core strength within you that survives all hurt."-Max Lerner "Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down." "It's hard to pretend that you love someone if you really don't. But it's harder to pretend that you don't love someone if you really do." If I die never having loved, then I die never having lived." "A woman knows the face of the man she loves as a sailor knows the open sea." "Love me now, love me never, but if you love me, love me forever" "We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly." "A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart, and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words." -Donna Robert..  "Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for awhile and leave footprints on our hearts. And we are never, ever the same." "Where there is love, there is God also."

(he he I did that :oops: ) When you scream at the top of your lungs whenever anne of green gables comes on PBS, even though you own the video. When you scream at the top of your lungs whenever anyone informs you that they have never heard of anne of green gables!!!! When someone asks you why you like anne of green gables so much, you give them a 45 minute lecture on how cool Anne and Gilbert are! (And I'm holding myself back.) When you find yourself talking about the books to someone who obviously doesn't care. (been there done that) When you make detailed plans on how to assassinate Morgan Harris and Jack , just in case you ever meet them.    When you scream "Say, I LOVE YOUUUU" when Gil leaves with the train after he's met Anne in Kingsport.(been there done that)  When you're jealous of every one of your friends who has freckles. When you take it as a compliment when people tell you that you talk too much!!!!   When you have to write a paper on anything...you somehow manage to slip Anne in somewhere.... When you watch the movies to either find the bloopers and then you yell at Anne when she's a jerk to Gilbert. ha ha! (check check check!!!!) I will write soon..I have been really busy latly..So bear with me!! http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/theramblingsofayoung/506680/ Fri, 28 Mar 2008 17:25:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/theramblingsofayoung/506680/
