A few posts ago I told ya'll that I had a try-out to make Wind symphony at my high school for next year. If you don't know what Wind Symphony is I'll tell you. Wind Symphony is the highest band that you could possibly be in at my High School that I will be going to next year. And you have to tryout to make it. And the likely hood of sophomores making it aren't very big. So I have been waiting for forever to find out if I made it. So today I found out...I MADE IT!!!! I am sooooo excited. My friend Alyson also made it too! So we will be in the same class. And I am thrilled to get to be in it. So I am very happy and proud of myself. I am proud of myself because I have only been playing the trumpet for a year and a half and most people who are in their have been playing for like 4 years or even more, so that makes me feel really good. Wahoo!!
Ok so my summer plans are basically in the concrete as of Sunday. Sense I am taking Drivers Ed. I cant go on my Youth Groups mission trip to Juarez, Mexico ( and my mom doesn't want me too). And I am going to go to bible camp with my Youth Group along with 2 other youth groups from Idaho. VBS is always a big hit. I love helping with the little kids, the 3 yr. olds. They are sooo cute. My fake little brother ( I don't have one so I adopted 2 little brothers from my church to be my brothers) is in that group and its soo sute to see the little kids sing about Jesus. They are adorable. After Camp my family is going on an Alaskan Cruise ( Thanks to my Grandma! She paid for my family to go) for about 8 days. Then when I get back its about week until my first day of High School. So their isn't really any room for a real job. A job like at a Snow Cone Shak, or a job at Maceys and a grocery bagger, or Hot Dog On A Stick. So last year I was a nanny for about a week and a half to two sweet little girls at my Church. And it pays pretty well, although I have to say I got a really good inside look on how being a mom felt like, and boy it was hard. So Mr.G thought I did a great job with his little girls and wanted to get me again. So I will be a nanny again for about 2 weeks and a little more. You see I do quite a lot of babysitting so people like to tell me a couple months in advance if they need me for a awhile. He also wants be one night a week during the summer so he and his wife and go on a date. And one afternoon every school week so they can go golfing. I love babysitting, and I love little kids. And its a really good job for me to do because its cool to see how much little kids will love you and look up to you and cant wait to give you a hug every Sunday and ask " Whens are you gonna gets to come play with us?" And when you are at their house they want to color with you and want you to read to you. You pull out all the games in the closet play Candy Land for hours( or until Erin runs away with the blue piece, or when she needs a diaper change) and you let them watch movies with ice pops and blow bubbles on the portch. But sometimes babysitting can be really hard. I will be a nanny Mon- Fri from 7:30 in the morning until 5:30 or 6 in the afternoon. And let me tell you, and you probably already know this, but chasing after a 2 year old and a 4 year old can be really tough. Especially when you don't have a lot of that mommy instinct. But for now I will be the best nanny to those little girls and show them all the love and mommy-ness that I have. And I will enjoy being able to whatch the little kids that I babysit now in about 10 years when they are showing other little kids how great life can be.
I think little kids are Gods way of showing us how much he loves us. And I can tell you right now, summer will be fun but interesting once again as a nanny. I guess I will have to keep you posted huh.
