tumblrbot asked: WHAT IS YOUR EARLIEST HUMAN MEMORY?
It was dark…a little squishy and then suddenly a bright light and loud noises entered my life, people making comments about my beauty… cold hands touching me and someone cutting something on my belly button (late I found out it was my umbilical cord)…
okay, I’m kidding.
My earliest memory… as a human that is…would be in pre-school my teacher would let me skip nap time to go with her on her lunch breaks to the mall. She would buy me things and treat me to a milk shake. I was later her flower girl in her wedding.

First off, welcome to my blog. Not much yet but a lot to come, I promise. I have another blog on Tumblr (chloepedersen.tumblr.com) that you are more than welcome to explore. I won’t be keeping up with that one really anymore. I needed a new start and so this blog is it.
Tonight I was in a worship service at my school and I was convicted. I realized that my previous blog had become meaningless. I went on it to pass the time and re-blogged too many things that weren’t of significance. My greatest regret with that blog however is that I was not completely open about my life. I sheltered some things and kept them off limits. This is what I was mostly convicted on tonight. God was telling me that it is time I am open about my past and share all my experiences with people on here. He told me that He has given me a story to share and that it’s time. My first thought was “heck no!” After some thought and debate with God I decided this was the best choice. I am only meeting Him halfway as of right now and He is okay with that. Baby steps. With my previous blog there are people following me who I know very well, people who I adore, people who I am not ready to be completely open with. God is okay with that. He is willing to let me take these baby steps and that is this. This blog. I can be open about everything and have no worries. I won’t be judged by the people I love most and won’t disappoint them yet either.
So bare with me. It may take me a bit to open up fully but I promise I will. I have a lot to say but am not eloquent in speech so please forgive me. I get very passionate when I am writing and often start rambling, sorry…I will try really hard not to. I love to write, and usually write for selfish reasoning. Most of my blogs will be about things I am working through in my own life and writing is how I try to figure it all out. It may be hard to see where I am going in the beginning but I promise you that if you hang in there, it will all make sense eventually.
Prayer. Prayer is very important to me. I would not be where I am today if I didn’t have this type of access to God. I believe in the power of prayer. I am here if you guys have anything you need me to pray about, please don’t ever hesitate to send me requests. And if you do send me a request you can guarantee that I will be praying for you! If you want it to be private indicate so and I will not post it.
Also, I mentioned above that I was re-blogging a lot of meaningless stuff and that I wanted to change that. I do but that is not to say I won’t be posting fun or cute things. I will; it’s just that my blog won’t be centered around that and written posts will out weigh those things. There is always room for laughter and cuteness in my life. I whole-heartedly believe that life doesn’t always have to be so serious; that life should contain fun and laughter so I will be bringing some of that to this blog! :)
I love you guys! Have a blessed night! <3
