Momma and Daddy,

I don't even know where to begin but this letter is one written to encompass all of the fear that fills my heart and mind as the first half of my senior year of high school starts to come to a close. I couldn't imagine making it this far and making it this well without the support of you two right beside me the whole way. You've made me the girl I am today and I couldn't be any luckier to have you two as the ones to thank.

Daddy,

Daddy, you are my rock always. When I fear the worst you are always there to give me a word of encouragement, whether you believe it might be true or not, you know it will help your baby get through whatever rough patch it is. You made me a princess from the day I was born and have always made sure that I knew you thought I was beautiful. Daddy, you are the strength that I need when I can't seem to find it in myself. I know that you will always be there to hug me when I feel broken, which seems to be a common feeling for me. Daddy I'm having a hard time facing growing up because i never want to not be your baby girl and be at home for you to comfort me when i'm upset. I love you more and you are my favorite daddy in the whole wide world of daddies.

Momma,

Momma you have shaped me into the woman i am becoming everyday. I take after you in so many ways and I wouldn't trade that for the world. Without you, I wouldn't be sane (or at least partially sane) today. You are my rock and you help me try to understand my struggles daily. I could not have made it through my teenage years without you by my side. I wouldn't trade you and your love for anything. I know you will always be one call away but i'm surely not ready for you to not be right across the house when I can't sleep or have a terrible dream! I love you bunches and I'm so happy to call you my mom!

Y'all,

This is just a small thank you for all the many years of hard work you've put in to parenting me. I know I haven't been easy to raise, especially these past few years, but I am so glad y'all were the ones to do it! You are the ones to lead me to the Lord and show me to put him first while also showing me how to live my life for him. I am so grateful for you two and your huge hearts! I couldn't be any more proud of the parents that I have been blessed with! I love you both more than you could ever know.


Love always,

Your baby girl

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
