Family: Two or more people who share goals and values, have long-term commitments to one another

My family update:

Jesse: ~He is the love of my life; I adore him. No one else could ever take his place.~

Jesse is 23 years old. He is working at the Flint Greenhouses (aka Mountain States Plants) as a manager. He loves his job; The manual work and the ability to use his hands. The great thing is that his work is right outside our house. He can come in for his breaks and lunch, and I get to see him!!

After work, Jesse loves to just relax and watch TV or play some video games. Right now he's playing some shooting one; I should probably figure out what it's called. He just finished Castlevania. That is Jesse this year, so far!

Meagan: ~The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.~

I am 20 years old. I'm a new mother, if you can't tell by the quote above. I absolutely love it; although it's very tough. I have a hard time being a happy person when I wake up super early. My motivation is still trying to come back, it's lost somewhere in the abyss of time. The only problem with that is, I have to try to find it sometime, and that's hard to do.

I am starting school on the 18th of January; it's going to be quite the adventure. I'm excited to learn again; I love school. I'm going to take Art history1, Drawing 2, Painting 2, Photography Dark Room, and English 2.

My goals for this year are: (1) Keeping my house clean (pretty much coming up with a strategy to keep it clean). (2) Creating Juniper's Nursery! I am going to paint her walls and transform it into a fairy forest.

Juniper:~She is the sunshine in my life. Her smile just makes my knees go weak. When I look at her I see the wonders that God does.~

This is my little angel. I love her so much. Juniper is 3 1/2 months old; and she's getting so big. She is so strong. Joon lifts herself up onto her feet when she's holding onto my hands. She loves it when I stick my tongue out at her, and when I babble and make funny sounds. She loves the sound of her daddy's voice; she'll just stare at him when he walks in, like she's waiting for him to notice her and smile at her. I love it when she wakes up in the morning smiling, that just means that day is a super special one. This month, Joon gets to start eating baby cereal. I am so excited for this to happen, it will be so cute.
