The Day Has Arrived!

September 27 2006
Well folks, I am no longer a teenager, but an old woman of twenty years! I can't believe it! I don't feel that grown up yet...

I remember when Nathan Moore turned twenty and he went on about how old he was and Amy Bonin and I made fun of him for it. And now here I am, going on about how old I am... ha ha...

I feel like, however, I am definitely growing, maturing, and learning at this time.

I've had some amazing Facebook wall messages today, such as Zach Ingle's "How do you feel knowing you've lived through two whole DECADES?!" and Ben Wicks' "it's all downhill from here". Oh, and John Dunahoo's "presents stink from now on". And Graham called me "Short One of Doom". I have such encouraging friends, don't I?!

Anyhow, I lastly wanted to share this picture with y'all... it's from my 16th birthday party, which was my last birthday in Texas before moving here:

Happy Birthday Amy and no you aren't getting old. I rang up a birthday cake last week for a guy who's dad just turned 102! So you may have only lived out on fifth of your life so far you never know. And even better so what why does age matter? It's all about what you do now, not how much longer you have to do it!

HIs name is Steven McLeod. You probably do know him. I've known him for like 5 or 6 years now. I met him through Sagemont.
