Thinking back on life, I'll admit mine has been a slightly wild ride. All of it caused by me. Growing up I never was a very strong person, I never had a voice, and I was always a follower. I was perfectly content letting people walk all over me. I always did things to be cool. Like having the boyfriends that I had. I don't regret dating any of them. They all taught me something different, and they all will be some of the coolest and dorkiest guys ever. They will always be my friends, and I am always happy for them when they find an awesome girl; because they deserve it. But looking back it's amazing to see how much my life has changed. In middle school I was really well known, I was involved in the drama program, and as stated earlier, I had boyfriends. Now, I am known in church, but on the high school campus people only knew me if they had classes with me. I play on the softball team and I love it. Those girls mean the world to me, I love them so much! And seeing how all my mistakes have turned out, I wouldn't take any of them back. They changed me for the better. They strenghtened my relationship with Christ, and they made me place my trust back in him.
Even having my heart broken twice by the same person was a good thing. It made me be stronger, and it brought me closer to people that I never thought I would. It made me realize that I deserved better, and that I should stick to my list. Because God has a plan, and even if I'm supposed to be single it'll work out for God's glory. And I've reached the point where I'm fine with it. I'm okay with being alone. Not that I don't want to have a family, and haven't planned out a lot of my wedding. But whatever happens I'm cool with it. God is definitely stretching me with the end of high school approaching and decisions that I need to make. But its all up to God.
So this part is dedicated to Stacey- My best friend, and unbiological sister. I love you so much! You have no idea how sane you keep me. I have no clue what I'm going to do when you go away to college (because you're so getting in!). But I know that you'll always be a phone call away, and that you will be there to help me through this summer. Cause this summer is going to be a tough one. I love you and your family for taking care of me, I love being able to call your house "home". You all mean so much to me! And I'll always be here for you and your family. Know that when you're gone I'm still going to take up residence in your house because someone has to keep mom sane!
So this is my life, and there are many people that impact me. And I'm sure you'll get your own spot in a blog here soon. I love you all!!

About Me

- I'm Katie.. I'm a Christian and I love serving God. I've realized some things in life can't be changed. A hole in your heart can never be filled, and your true friends will still love you even when you screw up. You have to find the best in every situation to find what truly makes you happy, and life is never going to be perfect. But its those imperfections that make you learn, laugh, and love. Hold the ones you love close because you never know when they could be gone. Be kind to everyone, because the people who impact your life the most are usually people you never would expect. If a door closes look for an open window, and always be ready to stand up for what you believe in. Never let anyone take your voice away, because you never know just who might be listening for it. Always give people a smile, smiling brings joy to everyone, and it changes lives. Never act better than anyone else, because that's just rude. And always be willing to sacrifice material things, because in the long run they don't matter. I hate talking about the past, I hate thinking about my past in particular.
