Family

Okay, it's no secret. Family is very important to me. The other day, I was at the pool with my cousins. Andrew, (3 yrs. I think.) looked at me with a evil grin, and threw my dry towel in the kiddie pool. You have to admit, the kid's smart enough to make someone think twice about making HIM mad. I went after the towel, and then Drew. We were laughing so hard. Family can be a real blessing. :) On the other hand...we still have to work some things out. Like when my brother and I fight. It's typical. My parents are working somethings out right now, and it is serious. People can really get hurt. Physically, and mentally. All I can do is pray. If anyone reads this blog, please pray for Jenn and Kale's marriage. For our whole family, actually. Mom, dad, me, and my brother. Anyway...I really think family is dear to me. That's the point. Love is POWERFUL! use it wisely. -Iva

Okay, you might be wondering why I have this picture on the top of my blog. Here is the reason. These are my BEST friends. I have known them my whole life. And that's the truth. The one on the far left is Annika. She is sorta quiet, but that's fine, we still love her. the one next to Annika, is Berit. She and I do almost EVERYTHING together. In the back, is Sally. She gets really crazy sometimes. I am next, the one in front of sally. I guess you could say I am the leader, if you know what I mean. The short girl, is Katie. I can't say much about her, because I don't get to hang out with Katie as much anymore. At our church, Sally, Berit, and I are in the youth group. But Annika, Kaite and Marah, (who I will tell about in a second...) Are younger than us. Actually, they just moved up to youth group a few days ago. Marah, she is really boy-crazy sometimes. Which makes her so funny. Sigh....I love my friends. We call ourselves the Bff. Best Friends Forever. Peace! I have to go now, I'll write some more later.

Hello! This blogging will be about me, and my life. I am Iva Johnson.

I still go to school, but am very happy. I have a good family, and lots of supportive friends. Who could ask of anything more? Well...My parents are going through some "wars" and are on the "battle fields", of you know what I mean. This is really challenging, because my brother and I are the bystanders. Of course, as the kids, we can't just say: "See yah!" and take off. No, with my family, we will stick together. Any way...I hope this blog can be a big hit. :)
