Holding the Future Hostage

For almost as long as I can remember, I have had a far-off dream of writing a book.  Unfortunately, dreams of this kind take commitment, dedication, and lots and lots of hard work.  I never truly put my effort into this particular dream of mine, and thus nothing ever came of it.  I have a friend, however, who had the same dream, gave it her all, and after three long years of work finally accomplished her goal--and published her very own book.  I am so very excited for Tialla in accomplishing such a great task, even before she finished high school.

I enjoyed Holding the Future Hostage immensely.  The story is about a teenage girl who holds the balance of the universe in her hands...literally.  It is a captivating read, and I found it very difficult to put down.  With adventure and suspense filling every one of its pages, there is not a dull moment in the novel.  I would highly recommend Tialla's book to any sci-fi adventure lover.

We're moving for real!..... I think

God has been so faithful to us. In the last month or so, He provided a house for us to rent in the town that Dad is working in. Although I cannot go into all the details of the house, it was truly a God thing! And just this week, my Dad's job went "permanent", and God brought renters to us without our even having to advertise! He has provided for us in his perfect time!

We are planning to move about the second week of April! I'm excited in a way and sad in another. Moving means I'll be closer to my best friend and cousin Mariah. But it also means that I will be farther away from my good friends Gabby, Hannah, Trent, Rylee, Mike, and Joe. This I am sad about, but I know that I will be still be able to see them frequently (the town we're moving to is only about an hour and ten minute drive away from the town we live in now).

Anyway, just wanted to let you all know! I'm praising God!

In Christ,


P.S. If you would, please pray for my family. We are going through some hard times right now (not exactly related to our move).
