fay. a special, sweet girl who - honestly - rarely makes sense. but that's why i love her.

she also says things like this: (when she saw me wearing a dress)

"miss mann, how you be lookin' like a babydoll today?!"

radinas & scrabble.

the magnificant konza prairie.

manhattan, autumn.

manhattan, tree adventures.

kids adelante

manhattan scenic overlook.

an education.

i really want to see this.

autumn

even though it's 30 some degrees out;
i am choosing to ignore the winter-feeling
which is a trick to get you excited about christmas.
because, people -
christmas is MONTHS away.
we just kissed summer goodbye.
don't give in to the winter!

even though autumn isn't my favorite season,
i feel like i am fighting to make it be here.
if it is going to be so finicky -
then i will just take summer back. gladly.

anyway.
i've been pretty elusive lately
with only pictures every once and a while
it's hard to stay up-to-date,
but i promise you i've been having fun.

i just wish i could see more people,
or just plain see people more.
i feel like i barely have time for anything these days.

however, thank the Lord i didn't have class this week,
so i've been feeling less overwhelmed.

i'm so ready to be done with school and be a teacher.

bigger or better?

birthday cupcakes!

sometimes i feel like i've never been nothing but tired
and i'll be working til the day i expire.

sometimes i lay down, no more can i do
but then i go on again, because You ask me to.
