today was an overall good day. started off w/ coffee! which always makes it good. but got my grades and wow that was bad. ive never done so bad in my life. like didnt even do this bad in middle school or elementary. why does it seem like the more help i get from people and teachers, the worse i do. i hate that. it can only go uphill from here! the rest of the day went pretty well. thomas is adorable! we walked around the school tonight (holding hands and being inseperable) before he had academic team practice. he kissed me! aww. it surprised me very much and i so melted. lol pathetic i know. he has a walk w/ god!!!! omg. im so happy! and a great relationship w/ his parents (he tells them everything) and his 21 year old sister. woo-hoo. anyway i got home tonight and was really struggling w/ talking to my dad. last night he mad a comment about not liking thomas b/c the whole tutor thing and another guy in my life and ya-da-da. you get the point. i was really upset over it b/c he hasnt even met thomas let alone given him a chance so it hurt me. so after calling christine and talking to her and reviewing my speech to her, i went to go talk to my dad. well we got into the conversation and i told him how i really felt and opened up to him which is a big deal for me since im really not all that close to him. i told him how i was scared to mention thomas around him for fear of his rejection. i told him id be surprised if he ever supported anything i do. just a lot of things came out that have been there for a lil while. i cried as i opened up to him. but i think he understands and i hope something good comes out of this. church was good tonight. i love my church. i love the people there. i miss them so very much. i never get to see beautiful ashley anymore. can u believe the olympics are still going on. i didnt know that they lasted that long. pray for sara. she needs it. time to bounce.....TTFN
the wingwam of esther slaughter
Tears, anger, laughter, uncertainty, and best of all LOVE. Thoughts inside the head relievling themselves through the power of words. Boundaries are unheard of. It's the wingwam of life.

esther! i added you to my blog roll. i read all your posts so now i feel a little more "up-to-date"...but i realized there's so much about you that i dont know! and i WANT to know! so, i will be stalking your blog as well as checking in on you, ok missy?! last night while we were praying for sara, this verse came to me, and i want you to share it with her: Isaiah 41:8-10. write it out and put it on your bathroom mirror or on the dashboard of you car--so you can see it everyday. also: in an earlier blog, maybe the 1st one, you were talking about how you know God has some great plans for you but it's going to be hard to change? how ironic---no, it's God's plan--that your name is ESTHER!?! :) i know you know the story. re-read esther 4, and memorize verse 14! you're on the right path girl. just keep truckin! God never said living a Christian life would be easy, but think about what rewards are being stored for you! and thing with your dad: he loves you soo much esther-i know you know that, even though sometimes it may not seem like it. but take advantage of the time you have with him (and your mom) because you never know when that time will be up. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!! mwah!
Esther,
I am proud of you and how you are really beginning to open up. Keep it up. Nothing worth gaining is ever easy. I know you can do it!!!
