Having a Serious Talk with Dad

Gage had a basketball game tonight and he did really great! On our way home we passed my Dad and Tim in the truck next to us and my little brother said quietly in a soft voice "I think I need to have a serious talk with my Daddy". Me and my grandma turned to look at each other in an amazed gaze, and asked "What do you mean Gager?" He replied back with "I just saw my Daddy smoking in the car next to us, he promised me on New Years he would stop. And that was about three months ago." It broke my heart to my little brother say those things to me. I once have asked my dad to please stop but kicking an old habit isn't as easy as it seems. Am I mad at my Dad for smoking? Well... No but, I also never want to see anything happen to him. It is very hard for me to hear such things come out of my little 10 year old brothers mouth. Still so innocent and not quite getting things yet. I would call this... Asking for forquitness.
What I hope you get from this...
1. Do not be afraid of telling your Parent how you feel about the things they do.
2. Never think that your opinion doesn't matter to a Parent.
3. You mean everything and more to your Parent never doubt them.
4. Learn from your Parents mistakes... and make sure you know how you felt about the things they did and remember that while you grow up to make sure you never do such a thing to make your children feel uncomfortable.
5. Always voice your opinions cause some why or a another they will make a great difference.

Making and Breaking

"Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born."
- Anais Nin

I have found that I'm getting closer with a some what long lost friend that is near and dear to my heart and almost like a brother to me... Grady of course! Him and I have gotten so close! I love Grady to death! He's my soft spot between a rock and a hard place, and he always reasures me that everything is going to be okay even if we both know that it really isn't. He's not only like one of my best friends he's also a great math tutor! I most likely could not have past last term without him, he really helped me with my math and grades. We laugh all the time together at stupid jokes from last school year! And we both get on eachothers nerves all the time and fight sometimes cause like I said before we are just like brother and sister! My mom thinks Grady is one of the cutest nicest kids she has ever met and she thinks that he seems like a really fun person to hang out with and she is definately right about that one! There is a couple of things that I hope you get from this...

1. Always keep that one guy friend around that makes you feel better about your self
2. Just because one of your best friends is a boy doesn't mean you like him
3. Never take a friendship for granted
4. Make the best of everything with your best friend even if it's nothing to special

The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly...

Let's start out by saying "I wish friends were like money so then I could hold them up to the light and see which ones are real and which ones are fake". Yes this quote does in fact have something to do with the weekend I had... I would tell you the whole story but that might take to much time that I ain't got right now. This weekend I realized who my true friends are, and who loves me for who I am not what I pretend to be. I realized that the friend that needed me the most was the one that I had been ignoring the past couple of weeks, and the friend that could care less about my presents was the one that I have been paying all my attention to. I really kick my self for letting it take so long for me to realize that my true friend was the one who tryed for weeks to get closer to me and get my attention. Well I hope she knows now that I am always here for her 100% through thick and thin! This weekend we really had a trial of friendship and we stood by eachother the whole way and kept telling eachother how this will only make us stronger. I was talking to my momma about her and her best friend Cass and I realized that Ryley is my Cass! She is the type of friend that even if we get in trouble together I can sit by her and tell her "Man that fun!" And it's the truth and nothing but the truth! One thing I hope you get from this Post is...
1.Never trust anyone but your self with your secrets
2.Never underestimate the power of the teenage girl and what she is capible of doing 3.Look both ways before crossing (make sure you know what your telling and who you are telling it to cause the wrong thing in the hands of the wrong person could really come back to bite you in the a**)
3.Don't always assume your right
4.Take time to notice your bestfriend and make sure she always knows your there no matter what
5.Don't ever tell your self things are falling apart cause I promise they WILL get better!
I hope you enjoyed and take my advice to the fullest!
