Today is my 17th birthday. Thank you everyone who has wished me a happy birthday!

Always,

I have to leave for work here in a few minutes but I wanted to get on here and post something real fast.

Okay bye!

~Denise~

Hahahaha that was way to fast! Okay so all I've been doing is working! But Brad the manager didn't even start me out (Ms. First Job) at min. wage! Can you believe that?! I mean come on! No I can't complain about it cause min. wage is like $5.15 an hour and I'm actually making $6.50 an hour! Yeah I guess they think I'm purty special. =)

Anywho I really do need to get going leave in like two minutes.

Love Ya'll!

Oh one more thing! I'm not sure who all knows Kenneth Thompson but his mom e-mailed us and asked us to pray for him. In her own words she said, really the get down on your knees and seek God for Kenneth. She didn't give any details yet. But she said she would when she had more time. This is the family that just lost a son Colby in a horrible car accident this year. I'll try to give more updates as they come as much as possible.

Always,

Last night I had a dream. I had a dream that I got the job I've been trying to get since forever at Hobby Lobby. I called it a teaser dream this morning and got kinda upset. Laughed it off and went about my day. Trying to figure out where else I could try and get a job around this time of year. I have to tell you I thought working for Hobby Lobby would be fun too! I've been trying to get a job there for weeks! So... when I had this dream I had every right to get upset! But today I asked the Lord to take care of me. And wouldn't you know! The Lord is so good to me. He just knows how to give you a great big hug AND the desires of your hearts! I received a call today from the manager at Hobby Lobby and he really needs me to come in tomorrow so I can go ahead and get trained by Jane the head cashier. I GOT HIRED! I start tomorrow morning at 9. Wow. I'm just so nervous I don't know where to begin! So I do ask you guys to pray for me. I really want to do a good job here at my first job. I need the Lords strength in this. For different reasons.

Yesterday was Matthews 13th birthday. I know it. He is getting so big! It's scary too!
Then Dads birthday is coming up the 14th, and then mine the 17th! Ya I'll be 17 on the 17th. Haha that will only come around once a year. =)

All the snow is about gone now. It was 45o this afternoon. my toes are frozen... socks or no socks! *sigh* theres just no gettin warm I guess. =(
Well the Lord is just blessing everywhere I turn! I hope he's doing the same for you all.
I couldn't thank him enough!

19 days left till Christmas, 12 left till my 17th birthday. *smiles*
