Taking care of other people will teach you that it's not about you quicker than anything. Sometimes I get bummed cause I feel like people just don't understand how important I am. Gosh, I mean, don't they get it...
Apparently they already know what I have yet to learn...and that it is not about ME.
Living at home over the last couple weeks has taught me some very important lessons. I have never felt unappreciated. Just sometimes I feel like the "events" in my life get pushed to the back burner. When I realize how selfish I am I get so mad! Dealing with cancer is bigger than anthing going on in my life right now. I know that... but it's still so easy to get hung up on myself.
I'm realizing what a huge lesson this is to learn. It's so foundational to serving in minstry within the church. Praise God that He is rooting out a lot of the hindrances I have to serving Him.

Hey Sharkbait,
we're missing you here. I read your blog and wanted to say that I think it's incredibly noble and unselfish of you to drop everything in your life to help someone you love. I know it's not really a sacrafice to help your mom, but in a way you are sacraficing...it's sort of putting your life on hold for the time being, but I truely believe that God will bless you for your unselfishness. Anywho, just thinking of ya cause we went yet another week at Refuge without the Sharkinator at the reigns. Oh yeah, tell Blakeypoo that I miss him too. You know how sensitive he is. Tell your mom many prayers are coming from Baton Rouge.
Happy Birthday Katherine! June 14th. I hope you enjoy your special day.
I love you,
Auntie Sharon
katherine, i would have to agree with brandon in saying how unselfish and sacrificing you really are. i know this is tough, but i love that you are allowing God to use this to change things in your own heart. youre awesome. still praying for your family!
I miss seeing you, but I've been praying for your mom and entire family! I can see God's hand over all of you. I hope you had a wonderful Birthday and can't wait for you to get back to BR!
Love,
Kristin
