Yesterday I broke my foot. Let me tell you how it happened: I was running in clogs or as my mother says, "Barby Shoes," and it was raining, oh and by the way I was running in the rocks, well I fell in the rocks and broke my foot.
I would like to tell this journal that every day of my life I will have a Psalm in this journal. -

I am at Church very uncomfortable but God is here with me and I am so, so very glad of that. Here is a prayer that I will pray to God:
Dear God, I am very HOT and my foot feels tired, so do my eyes
but none of this matters because you want me to be happy all the time
but I cannot all the time be happy and I need Your help. So help me please.
Amen
but none of this matters because you want me to be happy all the time
but I cannot all the time be happy and I need Your help. So help me please.
Amen
LATER ON:
I sure do look really ugly with my foot in a BIG shoe (it was a foot brace) and crutches. So I cannot be very pretty for people. I have to be pretty for God.
God I am pretty for you!
THEN I THOUGHT I WOULD WRITE SOMETHING TO MY FUTURE CHILDREN:

I am a pastor's daughter and right now I am at Church.
Children I am on the third pew and writing all this to you.
I am writing this before I had any one of you. I am only 10 1/2 .
My prayer is that you would be godly.
Love your, Mother

For some reason I am not writing in here at all much today. I count the days as they go by so that I can feel better about living because to me I have to be on crutches a long time . I tell people, "A good 30 days." As you know we are building a Great Room on to our house and I spend most of the day just sitting in a corner watching and waiting and reading but boy right now it is HOT for me. I guess I should not have worn my hair down. Well I have to get up and get some fresh air.

Yes, my foot is better. It was better by the end of July. I have not written in a month or loner. Mom took a picture of me and my good-old-pales ( crutches) and my handy BIG, FOOT, SHOE. I hope to get it here soon. Reading this brings back the good days...I mean the bad days of my broken foot.
LATER ON...
Children have I told you that your Grandmother on my side is expecting your Aunt or Uncle... Seth or Abby. That is all for now.

At Church:
I am sitting with my friend Sarah, at church. I must take care of my little sister, as you know. Oh, I must take Hannah back to some place, she is too loud. ( No offense Hannah, you were only two)

Thank you so much for posting this. I love it. I love reading your diary when you were little because it sort of gives and insight to your past life which I find very interesting. Thank you.
All my Love, Carolyn
Oh, I'm glad. Should I put some more diary entries? Elizabeth
I laugh every time I read my journals!!! What a silly girl I was and am.
Oh, yes please! I love reading it. It find it SOOO interesting. Well, I am sure that if I had kept a diary when I was that old than mine would be so silly. You are not silly now. I love you!!!
Carolyn
I didn't know you ever broke you foot!!! Wow! Your diary enteries are so fun to read but I thought you said you had trouble keeping a diary!!!!!! Love you, Nicole
Oh, and by the way, the only thing I don't really get is the ballonons, strollers, chocolate bars, flowers, pink blankets, baby things, etc. Can you explain? Thanks, Nicole
