My Dog Auggie


I have this energetic dog named Auggie and he always knows when you are happy or sad or even angry. If you're happy he’ll play with you, if you're sad he’ll lick you and be calm, if you're angry he’ll just make you happy. Having a dog is nice they're super nice and fun. My aunt had this nice and calm dog named Mabel and a few days ago she was put down because she was sick and it just makes me very grateful that I still have Auggie and I know that Mabel is all better and comfortable now.

Sunny Sunflowers

Josh and I teach a group of 7-8 year old boys.    At our last activity, we learned about helpful and unhelpful thoughts.    We called helpful thoughts sunny sunflowers and unhelpful thoughts worry weeds.    When unhelpful thoughts like, “I can’t do it” or “I’m stupid” or “Nobody likes me” enter your mind, pull them and plant sunny sunflowers!    A few of my favorite sunny sunflower thoughts are: “I can do anything I put my mind to”, “I am enough”, “All of my problems have solutions”, “ I am perfect just the way I am”.     We planted sunflowers and strawberries in little pots and had pudding dirt cups with Oreos and worms for dessert.    It was a lot of fun and such a good lesson to learn!    Remember you are loved!    You can get through anything, and when things do get hard, ask for help!  😊   “The only tyrant I accept in this world is the ‘still small voice’within.”-Gandhi -S...

"Music washes away the dust from everyday life" - Berthold Auerbach

Music has always been a major part of my life. In the car, we listen to awesome 80's songs and on Sundays we listen to hymns. There are songs that we all like and songs that just make us cringe. Music runs in the family. My mom was in a choir when she was younger and my younger brothers are doing guitar and piano. My dad, however, is just an appreciator of music (mostly 80s rock 😀).  I currently play three instruments, the piano, cello, and the organ. I've been playing piano since I was eight and this built the foundation of my love for music. I've been playing the cello since sixth grade.  Just recently I've been practicing hymns on the organ. I've been able to do so much with my musical abilities. For example, I won a superior rating for cello solo and Ensemble at school and a district. I've been in a select Orchestra for district. I've played the piano and cello in church and so on. I love using my musical abilities to bless people's lives and brin...
