So recently I went home for the weekend and I realized how much has changed in my life. I spent my first summer on my own and had to start being accountable for many new things in my life. I didn't even consider going home for the summer because there was no way that I wanted to live with my parents again. I couldn't wait to get out of Park Rapids and I had no desire to ever go back.
I think that living on my own really made me grow up this summer. I miss my family more than ever and I feel like I have really started to appreciate all the things that they have done for me while I was growing up. I appreciate all of the little things that my hometown has to offer with the lakes and it is so gorgeous in the fall. I'm not sure if I want to live there right after I graduate college but I could definitely see myself settling down there in the future, preferably with an amazing husband and kids.
Being away really opened my eyes to how fast I'm growing up and how I'm going to be an adult in less than two years. Thinking about having my own classroom and living by myself is a scary thought but with my amazing friends and family I know that I can face anything that comes my way.
Lots of love to my amazing parents, sisters, and friends! I can't thank you enough for all you do for me.
