A Day in the Country
My grandpa has dementia, and my mom's siblings take turns each day to take care of him. My mom's day is Thursday. Every Thursday I ride with my mom, an hour away, to visit my grandpa and enjoy the peaceful nature. Growing up, we've always called where my mom's family lives as "the country." We'd say, "We're going to the country today," and automatically know it's my aunts house. I love coming here; it connects me to the beauty of nature and God's creation. It's very mind clearing.

Homemade Hummus
My dad recently told me that there 's been a recall on Sabra Hummus because the bacteria, Listeria, was found. I LOVE hummus, and I usually eat some everyday. Our fridge rarely doesn't contain hummus. I thank God that we have not recently purchased more! Initially, my reaction was fear and to never buy hummus again, or at least the brand. As irrational and fearful as this may be, I decided to make my own hummus.
"Fear not, for I am with you." - Isaiah 41:10

Painting on Easter
Happy resurrection day! Jesus has risen! Decided to finish my cow painting today. My school has a art show every semester, and we have the opportunity to sell our own artwork at the upcoming art show! I am trying to earn and save money for college costs. I plan on getting a job as well as opening an Etsy shop this summer!
