Working?
~Kayla

Oh 2 hours of sleep.

So I did this thing so that I could send messages from my phone to update my blog...it didn't work :(!! this is what the message said (including punctation and capitilization):

So i set it up so i could update my blog from my phone. I hope it works. I should not be up...it is almost 4 in the morning here. I cannot sleep because i have never loved anyone so much in my entire life, and i've never felt so loved. My kids at kids club make me feel amazing. I know God has me here because i will love them. it is at the time of the summer where there is less than 1 month left and i am losing my mind. i've been crying for about 1 hour at this point. I love them so much it kills me to not be with them. i do not know where they are or if they are safe or loved. i wish i could just be with them every min to love them as hard as i can. i feel so loved because i know God loves me more than i love these kids. that love does not make sense to me. not only that, but his love never changes or is any less. oh how hard it is for me to believe he loves me, how could his love for me never change?

I love you God thanks for this chance. please help me love like you. please be w/ the kids when i can't. help me believe your love for me <3>

Greetings from Whataburger

Hey y'all!!!!!

This is a lovely post for you from good old Whataburger. The sad thing is that many of you may not even know what a Whataburger is. Just in case you don't and it is too hard for you to use your brain and guess I will tell you what it is. It is a fast food place that has burgers. They have wireless internet here, so that is why we are here. Leah and I each got a milk shake, though I got a small one since they make me feel sick.

Anyway!!!!

Things are going really great!!! And!!!!!!!!!! I am planning on starting to post short video blogs so y'all do not have to read anymore and so that I can just quickly post a little video. I am trying it on this one just to see if it works well. These past two weeks have been amazing!!! I love my job and I cannot believe that this really is my job!!!! It is really really sweet!!! The youth groups and adult leaders have been amazing!!! I wish I could describe to you with these words how great it has been. Maybe I will try a little bit when there is really video.

This weekend we are staying at the Kim's house (she is the secretary of the church that we are staying at). It is awesome because we have real beds to sleep in. We slept like 12 hours last night, which may sound pathetic, but really that is great becasue that is over two nights sleep for us during the week. I got to talk to my grandparents today which was nice. They are coming down here (dad's parents) as well as my brother next weekend, and I am SOOOOOOO excited!!!! It is hard to believe that it is already the fourth of july, especially because it is just over a month until the summer is over. But I am not going to talk about this because it is sad. Really sad...except that I get to come home and see y'all which is fun.

It is already clear, but this is a really scattered blog. For that reason, here are some random pieces of information. I got to talk to my roommates today. I LOVE CARTHAGE!!!! This video is ridiculous. I do not have internet at the church I am staying at for the time being for some reason. They are working on getting it fixed. I am going to Shreveport tonight to see Rockets on the Red which is fireworks on the Red River :) I am very excited!!! I have tons of pictures that y'all can eventually see... but I have to get them from Tim and Leah first because I do not really do the whole picture thing. :):):):) I am super pumped for the potential video blog game. I lost the game. I miss my groups from the past 3 weeks, especially the last 2 weeks. I am considering doing YouthWorks again because it has been amazing!!! My computer is going to die. I LOVE JESUS!!!! I really want to make it to the Spanish Church around here and go the the Spanish Mass at the Catholic Church. I miss you all!!!

Do not be mean about my silly video. :) The audio has a bit of a lag. and, I was not watching myself, so this is Kayla in her natural Whataburger environment.



Mucho Amor <3
