Ha! I sure fooled you guys! I'm going back to school just like all the other big kids on the block. And, I'm going to like it. You know why? Because I can choose. Thats why. I can choose how I feel, and I can choose how I experience life. I found this scripture yesterday and it summarizes this realization I have come to.
2Nephi 10:23 Therefore, cheer up your hearts, and remember that ye are free to act for yourselves—to choose the way of everlasting death or the way of eternal life.
The purpose of life is to learn to love and be loved as Christ loves us. It is for us to be happy. Trials may come, but they are for our good. I know that great things are in store for me this coming year, and that I will have to take chances to grow, and experience life. No more life in the safe lane for me! I'm choosing to accpet the adventure before me with opptimism and a big excited smile.

Great post! It's always hard to make a choice when both are good options but it sounds like you made the best decision for you. I'm sure your parents don't mind that you like them enough to even consider staying home :). Good luck with your next year!
Mary I love your blog, it is great to know about you. James or best friend misses you. I hope that your school year works out good, and your parents move to Idaho I think will be a blessing for a lot of people.
