life at camp...being a servant

so i'm home for a week. very happy. but i miss camp at the same time. i miss waking up at 6:00 and taking a 10 minute shower so all the other girls get one too. i miss working in a hot kitchen, with a bunch of ladies that stressed out and rushed. i miss chopping lettuce. weird, i know. considering i chopped 4 bags a day (thats 48 heads of lettuce people) you wouldn't think that i'd miss it. i miss all the little things. the people. the joking. the shaking the love around. the coffee time song at 10:00 sung by grandma bricky. i miss having my laundrey done. i miss living with 5 other amazing girls. i love having airconditioning, but its just not camp. i miss serving people behind the hot steam table. that was one of the hardest parts about camp. the only time we got to interact with the kids from camp was when we were serving them. and we just wanted to get it done with. the kids could never make up their minds. and its a stressfull time when you have to serve like 5 things, and make sure they don't touch it, and make them happy with their meal. but thats what being a servant for christ is right? sometimes you don't really like it. sometimes its hard. sometimes you just dont want to be there. but you show up and do your best anyways, because if thats where jesus called you to be, thats where i'm going to be.




in other news, i got a promise ring from cody!! yeah thats what i thought! its beautiful. i almost cried. it was so amazing. he loves me. he wants to be with me. he's going to be with only me. i was so excited. and so happy. :D









So keep following jesus guys. listen to what he has to say. its worth it. keep on keepin on. and yeah love you!
