Memories

So today I was reading my Mom's old blog, and it brought back old memories!  I feel so nostalgic! I was just remembering what it was like to be a very little kid ( I say very, cause, let's face it, I'm still kinda a kid!) It makes me kind of wish I was younger, but at the same time, I want to get older! I think it's wonderful that I can look back and remember what it was like when you and your siblings were younger, but at the same time, barely remember the bad parts!I think it interesting how you have a whole different perspective when you grow up! A while back I thought the only reason everything seems smaller was because I had grown so much, but then someone remarked that one of the reasons things seem smaller than they used to, was because I'd seen more of the world! And that just made sense!

Now I wanna talk about memories some more.
 I have this really sweet, practically perfect memory, I was around five or six, and I was outside with a lot of my siblings, first we were trying to catch fireflies. Then the game changed to hide and seek, and we played outside until after dark, then we got called inside for dinner, and we had a lovely stew awaiting us.

That might not sound perfect to you, but somehow, playing with my siblings, until dark, then coming in for a nice hot supper, seems perfect!



Please tell me one of your wonderful memories in the comments!

Have a great day, month, year and life!! Love your friend
Emma!


P.S, if you want some pictures from when I was younger, tell me in the comments!

It makes me happy

Image
            You know what makes me happy? We have these sunflower seeds that we got for the chickens we have. Sometimes I take a handful and throw them around the yard near the window beside the spot where I do almost all my school, that way birds will come and eat the seeds. So when I look out my window during school hours I sometimes see 1 to 8( or some, idk xD) birds there, and it's so lovely.they are so brightly colored, and sometimes they sing.       I wish I could whistle like a bird, one of my many brothers can whistle a lot like a mourning dove. Anyway, the birds just kind of fill me with happiness and peace.and if I look up from the ground I see the  neighbors yard. It looks so beautiful with all the new, freshly colored leaves and the flowers blooming there. it's all just too wonderful. Spring is an amazing thing.      Isn't it nice that God has made so many beautiful things for us to enjoy? Imagine a world without birds? or dogs? Or books!! Or families that lov

I Entered a Writing Contest!?!?!

I entered a writing contest today. and holy moly I am nervous!  Especially after reading my entry, because I saw thing i want to change but I've already sent it in! i will give you the story exactly like it was when i sent it in though  I really want to get 3rd place or an honorable mention , ( there is no way i can get 2nd or 1st ) I have never had my writing judged by real judges before so i am kinda dying. But I think my storey is good.       Anyway, here is the link to the monday minute challenge, you guys should enter! Okay, so they give you things you have to incorporate in your story, you can use one, or all of them, but you have to have at least one in your story. I only used one, a mirror. My submission is 225 words Revealing Reflection        In its reflection, I saw myself as I really was. I remembered as I looked at my myself now, how I used to feel when I looked into a mirror, I was always left dissatisfied, and hurt. “I wasn’t pretty enough, I had too many freckl

Summer Changes.

Summer seems to be drifting away. These past months have seemed strangely empty. I say strangely because I have been doing many things!          I went on the most amazing week long Catholic retreat. The talks were so inspirational and helped me with so many things. We had a day of silence, and though I confess that I was not always silent the times that were quiet really moved me. I was not looking forward to the silence as I find it hard to not talk xD. But I really think some of my best memories were from that silently wonderful day. (We had an hour of adoration in the chapel at 11 pm <3)           I also assisted with a kids program at church and that was really fun, attended a dance and experienced our first staycation. As well as that, in the beginning of summer, there was play practice. But once the first retreat ended not much happened. Only lots of book reading and Tutus Tuus. Of course, it has been a wonderful summer despite the lack of crazy activity. Being with m
