A Thanksgiving Treat

     Well! A lot has changed since I made this blog last December! I thought I would just take some time today to tell you who I am so you can understand what kind of mindset these posts are coming from.
     I'll start with the basics: At the moment for pets I have 2 dogs (Bentley and Esther), 4 cats (Cleo Patra, Siyah Maymun, Autumn, and Romeo - Figaro), 1 bunny (Zaphod Beeblebrox), and 12 chickens. I live with just my parents, am home schooled, and in 10th grade. I have some siblings who are all older and don't live at home. I have been playing the violin for 5 and 1/2 years and just started the cello 2 days ago! I am very passionate about learning, saving babies from abortion, and preparing for my future!

Me and three of my friends: Sarah, Elsie, and Katie

     As for my faith: I am Christian! Doctrinally, I am a 5-Point Calvinist and Credo, Reformed Baptist. I believe in Family Integration and stand behind The Baptist Confession of Faith 1689. I believe God should be first in every one's lives and that we must continually be working on our faith. I believe that abortion is murder, homosexuality is an abomination, and that conventional dating is wrong. I DO NOT believe these things because I've been told to, brain washed into it, or forced to believe it. I came to these decisions all by myself. (Well, with God's leading of course! ;-)
     My top five favorite things in this world are learning, true friends, music, animals, and family. I enjoy swimming, skiing, and snowboarding. I like to watch and root for the Patriots. Baseball, soccer, hockey, etc. all bore me to death on tv, but are fun to play. I love living in New England so much that I might have to run away if I ever had to move again. ;-) I enjoy deep thoughts, unexplainable happiness, and happy tears. (Which I have only experienced once in my entire life!)
     Lastly, I would like to end with what I'm thankful for on today of all days! I praise the Lord that he's placed me in MY family, given me MY friends, and MY talents. I would never trade it with anyone else's. I am thankful for being home schooled and living life the way I do. I praise the Lord for being born on June 12th, 1998 by my mother and no one else. Thank you, God!
