You will never be on the student Council only popular kids make it anyways- Well then how come I am on it then huh'.
You will never be able to maintain a straight 4.0 GPA for more than a year- Oh yeah! Well I kept my 4.0 for 9 quarters in a row. Now its gone but at least I lasted 2 whole years and one quarter. And Hey a 3.976 isn't that bad at all!
I will never be able to play the trumpet after quitting the Piano- Well that theory didn't last very long! I bought my own at a garage sale and learned how to play! Now I am in the Highest band at my Junior High school and I have only been playing for a year and a half! ( 9th grade is still in the Junior High building)
You see there are tons of things that people say that I cant do. But by telling me that I cant do them only pushes me harder to do them. I feel this need to prove people wrong and that I CAN to anything I set my mind on. For example.
I have always wanted to donate my hair to Locks-Of-Love ever sense I was a very little girl. But continuous tears after trying to brush out my hair always led me to have to get a hair cut. But now that I am older I told myself I WILL grow my hair out long enough. So I went to the Website I learned that I need to have a minimum of 10 inches of hair in one ponytail to donate. I straightened out my hair and I only need about 3 more inches! I have grown my hair of for almost 6 months. I told my mom that I was going to do this she looked doubtful and told me that it would take a long time and even if I did have enough my hair it would be really short ( to my chin) after cutting it. I told her this " Mom these kids have NO hair what so ever. The least I can do is give them mine! Besides my hair will grow back, theirs wont." Sure ill miss it but hair is hair no matter how you put it. And besides its something I have always wanted to do. I am just one of those people who like to do service stuff. I think its a disease a good one at that.
One of my other life long goals is something really big. When I was about 8 years old I told everybody that I was Going to adopt a baby. The yjust looked at me like a crazy person and just figured that it was a phase I was going through. But I never grew out of this one. When I was 10 I told everybody that I wanted to adopt a baby from every country of the world. Than I learned that was over 80 countries! But I have never let go of my adopting dream. My parents tape every episode and story they find on adoption, every magazine clipping about adoption I have read and I continue this desire to adopt. Sense the 3rd grade I have always known of one place at the least that I was going to adopt from. I have decided on an Asian country China in particular. I don't know why I have always wanted to adopt but I have. Maybe god has planted this desire in my heart. Until Last year I added nother country Africa ( well I guess that is counted as a continent). I want to adopt a little girl form China and Africa. People in my class call me crazy and ask me " Well what happens if your husband says No. And adoption is really expensive ya know". My response to them is. Well I hope and know that I will hopefully find a husband that will support me and have the same aspiration that I do. And yes I know that adoption is very expensive and hopefully if this is in Gods plan he will help us financially. Ill work it out." And maybe I will never get married. Only God knows for sure. But people also call me crazy when I tell them what I want to name them. I like interesting and names not many people have. I have decided that I would like to name my little Girls Kenderayah ( Asian girl) and Adella ( African girl). But I know that over time that may change. But what I do know is that my love and passion for what I do and what I want to do will never change. And I hope to prove people wrong on this one. I have a want and desire to help people in anyways that I can! I will keep you posted on this. And I hope you all have a great rest of the week and remember Anything is possible with Jesus. It just might take a little longer than we would like.
Peace bloggers, go in peace.

You sound like such a neat person, Bee!!! Thank you so much for your prayer for our baby girl. If you don't mind, I'm going to print it out and put it in Selah's scrapbook so that she will know that there were people from all over praying for her!
God put in my heart to adopt when I was a little girl. I think He does stuff like that early!!! I believe that you WILL adopt someday! And the locks of love thing sounds awesome! You'll have to show before and after pics!!!
You are a very special girl! I'm thankful to have found your blog!
