| Hey guys,
WOW it's been a long time...
Ok, well, I got my knees fixed. The second surgery was the day after Christmas '07. That's where I left off I guess.
Ok, new stuff:
I'm a student leader at church now. It's awesome. God really gave me the desires of my heart. I decided that no matter what I wind up doing, I want to be a youth minister along with it. Two weeks later my youth leader walked up to me and basically said, "We need a couple of student leaders.We chose you and Mike, if you want to do it."
AMAZING!! I was (and still am) so ridiculously thrilled. Last Saturday I got to lead the girls in the Youth Group in our lesson. I loved it. Twas awesome.
I also play piano on the worship team. Last summer, these people came to town for a big Christian thing going on. One of them asked about me and one of the things that I said was that I play piano. They told me to keep practicing because God was going to bless me through it. I thought it was just a nice thought, but a few months later the worship leader asked me if I would like to join the worship team. Ever since then I feel like I've really found my place in the church. I always felt kinda like I didn't fit, but now I'm on worship team and lovin' every minute of it.
I got a Giant African Millipede. That's right, a millipede. Her name is Lily. Lady Lily the Lilypad Hopping Froggy Friend, to be exact. I love her! It's so cool to see how God makes his creatures so intricate - all the work of His hands is truly a miracle.
So, today, I decided I'm sick of being a car nut, but still not understanding everything about them. So I've decided to begin studying them a bit. If you want to join me, I found a really awesome and helpful website:
http://auto.howstuffworks.com/engine.htm
Just go to the bottom list and keep clicking on the links to the following pages. It's the basics, but it covers them well.
So life is amazing! Of course there's always the depressing stuff, but I've decided to hand that off to God to take care of. I know He's gonna provide for us, and we're all gonna be ok, so I'm just going to live my life for Him.
OH!! I can't believe I didn't think of this!!
My mom is a certified Barton Tutor now; she tutor's dyslexic kids, and kids who have a hard time reading. She's gotta work now, so she's getting all her marketing together, etc. She's got FOUR students already! FOUR! She just started!! :D We really need 'em,and God is providing. On top of that, one of her students is doing really well. So well, in fact, that after ONE week of tutoring, his principle at a public school called her and said, "I dunno what you're doing, but we need it here." The guy wants to hire her to speak at the school's teacher conference, and possibly hire her to train others!! As if that's not enough, Ma's gonna be speaking at a Hyatt Regency Hotel to the Daughters of the American Revolution Society!! So now, my mom is not just tutoring, but speaking, as well. We fund out that, out of the four of us, I'm the only one that's not dyslexic. So, with three out of four of us being dyslexic, this is the perfect job for Ma. :)
Also, I got a job. I work at Mickey-D's, taking your order. I know, corny first job, right? But it's awesome! Everybody there is so nice!! And funny, too. :D We have tons of fun. :) They cut my hours already, but it's not too bad. It's ok.
I hope everybody is doing really well.
Ttyl!

| Hey y'all!
I haven't been on Xanga in forever! What's up w/you guys? Well, since I'm supposed to post about what goin on fer meee.... I will.
We [me, Ian, Mom, and Lo] have moved. I love the house - it actually feels like home. God really picked a good one for us, as far as I'm concerned. It's near school. It's near my friends, so they come over all the time. And at night, you can hear the ocean, how cool is that?!
We found out what's wrong w/my knees... I have torn ligaments in both. The left is worse, but my doctor sais that he's never seen a 15-year-old w/tears in these ligaments in BOTH knees. Appearently it usually only happens in 40- or 50-year-olds. ROFL! So...
I'm having surgery on my left knee on August 1st.
I'm having surgery on my right knee sometime around December.
Plus, lota and lots of other stuff that I won't bore you with. Well, I'm going to try to get AIM back... so that'll be cool...
Love ya! Ttyl!
Love and Hugs,
Evan

| Let God be praised in all His glory-the Lord is good. He has lifted such a weight from my shoulders.
There is no more threat of Richard getting partial or full custody.
I'm going to have a home again.
We'll be moving.
I will not have the weight of being nice in order to have our family of four supported.
I will not be spending more than ten hours at my school without coming home.
I don't feel so hurt anymore.
...it's amazing to me. God has patched a large part of my torn heart. I feel so free. My back doesn't hurt as much anymore. I have waited- this could be the exact two year anniversary of when my mom told Richard he could stay with us while being in sin. It was a Sunday in January. This is a Sunday in January. Two years later. God has protected us from so many things. This is the next step in life. A beautiful step. A step I thank God for.

| Hey everybody! Wow, it's been a long time. I miss everybody! Whenever I'm finally on AIM or Yahoo! IM nobody else is on. ...*cough*Josiah*cough*Madeline*cough*etc.*cough* ... Well, I still love you guys, but I'm so busy that I'll probably not post again for a long time. I'll try to look at your posts, though. I don't feel like writing down everything, sooooooo, I'll catch you guys online! If you get on, that is... hint... hint... Ttyl! Love ya! God Bless! Hugs,

| Hey everybody! Today was an awesome day, along with Sunday and Tuesday... I've been seeing some of my best buddies like, every other day, and it has been awesome. One of the FEW, incredibly few, not awesome parts of the day is that I found out that I can't go tomorrow and hang out with everybody... sad stuff... my mom has to take her cousin to a doctors appointment so she won't be able to drive me. :( Not the best... but I had an awesome day. We went and had cheesecake, lol, then went hiking. And that was my incredibly brief explanation of my day. Yup yup. I think I'll go now. Ttyl! | | |
