Hi Friends and Family! Omygosh! It's been literally forever! But that's okay. I'm back! And I'm excited to announce my plans for the future. I am excited to be back. This website is truly kindof a memory from my younger years. I started this blog/website when i was 8. I'm now 11. Wow 3 almost 4 years ago... I'm older now. I'm kindof more adultlike now. ;) Looking back on my old posts is kindof embarrassing, but really fun too! :) I want to continue my art business. Maybe even continue posting on the blog. I started this blog because I wanted to express myself. And honesty I more then ever want to do that now. Over the last year i have been struggling trying to decide what my future will be. I had a lot of thoughts about being a social star. You know, those kids who have tons of followers and are "cool". Well I guess that sounded good to me but now that I think about it. I don't want to spend all my time on social media trying to impress people who won't come to my funereal. I want to be MYSELF! I want the whole world to know who I am. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ. And I'm proud of it! I am an artist who is working hard to create a popular Etsy shop with amazing art! Honestly I have been going through a lot. I have been feeling worthless and ashamed. I have traced it back to social media. Instagram has had a bad influence on me. Remember those social media star future I was talking about? Well that is an unrealistic expiation for my future. I don't want to be a rich snobby social star who has no real friends. Even if the world doesn't accept me. Jesus does and my friends and family do. AND that's what REALLY matters. I am not going to try to impress people anymore. I'm going to work on improving myself, and working on my talents. This February I will turn 12. I will be a young women and when the temples reopen I will have the opportunity to go inside and bless others. I am excited and will be working on purifying myself for that moment. I will continue working on My art shop and also start Rythmic Gymnastics. I will work toward things and I will BE STRONG! I am excited to start working my way back to Jesus who I am ashamed to say I rejected this last year. Well I'm coming back. And I'm PROUD of it! Thank you for listening to me. I am really excited to start working on what matters to me and not what matters to others! I am excited to work on being an artist and an entrepreneur and a rythmic gymnast and a faithful Christian! This is me and I'm happy about it! Get ready to watch me soar!
