A Young Maidens Day Book



Today…
June 1, 2009


Outside my window…
Is sunny and bright.

I am thinking…
How glad I am to be done with my school.

I am thankful for…
that I got to see my great grandmother saved before she passed away


I am wearing-
Denim and my old volleyball t-shirt

I am reading…
Dating with a purpose, the power of crying out the choice is yours, and the hounds of baskervilles.(again)

I am creating…
A baby sweater (just the sleeves left to go), a knitted cami, and soon a laptop cover.

One of my favorite things…
Wild flowers.

For education this week…
My SAT test.

A keeper at home skill I am using/learning...
Keeping school records more organized!

A spiritual lesson I'm learning...
That some times we just have to let go of worries and just relax.

A godly character trait I plan to work on…
Temperance.

Scripture I am memorizing…
Isaiah 40:9. Lift up your voice with strength, lift it up, be not afraid.

I'm praying for…
My SAT test. My moving to Ohio. My acceptance into my first choice college (already accepted to my second choice that is paired with my first choice so I can transfer to my first choice but rather just get into my first choice and skip the step of transferring)

For the rest of the week…
Studying, packing, and getting my laptop.

A picture I’d like to share...
My brothers, my best friend and I. We where sitting in the grass after my graduation and a mom of one of our friend's asked if we wanted a picture. The dress I'm wearing is the one I've been saying I've been working on for awhile. I finally finished it! I also made the white purse from some fabric I got from a friend for my 18th birthday. We are all squinting and tilting our heads funny because the sun was shining in our eyes.

Hey :) I just posted my 1st Young Maidens Day Book Entry and thought that I would go and look at the other ones :)
That is so cool that you made that dress! I have tried to sew but my projects never looked that nice!
Blessings!

That is such a pretty dress! I am planning on attempting to sew a dress soon, but since I have never done so before I am not certain how it will turn out. :)

I'm glad you guys like it. Keep in mind you only see the finished product and you don't see all the other ones I've ruined while trying to make that one=]. LOL. I made a "practice" dress from the same pattern that looked HORRIBLE. When y'all make your dresses be sure to post pictures, I'd love to see them!

Congrats on your graduation!

Sorry to hear about your grandmother, but that is good that she was right when she left this world!!! Will be praying for you! Stay strong! :)

I'm glad that I'm not the only Young Maiden doing this! Just wondering, how long have you been doing this? =D
