Hey, Guys.
I just wanted to tell you something I learned about humility.
I was picking out my clothes tonight for super Sunday tomorrow.
I was complaining to Aubrey that I had nothing nice to wear.
My nicest outfit was a Jean skirt and an t-shirt thing with an apple print.
Aubrey was going to wear a light yellow polka-dotted dress.
Every time she wears it she looks like an angel. She always has something pretty
to wear when ever something was going on. I never do.
I was sitting in my room with my head in my hands, listing to Aubrey’s iPod in the back ground.
Then I heard a Barlow girl song playing.

And the words were, "I’ll stop this pretending that I can somehow deserve what I already have."
So tomorrow you’ll see me in a Jean skirt and t-shirt with apples on it, and I’m going to
be happy anyway. Smile Very Happy
So I just wanted to say, that whenever you feel jealous or you want something,
remember to be happy with what you have, because you’re bless that God gave it to you.
Whitney

that is so true Whitney! thanks! I was wondering what to wear yesterday to, but I decided to wear what I had and be happy with it and not wish I had something else.
I have a feeling lots of people are like that...Cool thanks again!
