Lyrics
What Faith Can Do
LYRICS:
Everybody falls sometimes
You gotta find the strength to rise
From the ashes and make a new beginning
Anyone can feel the ache
You think its more than you can take
But you’re stronger, stronger than you know
And don’t you give up now
The sun will soon be shining
You gotta face the clouds
To find the silver lining
(Chorus)
I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn’t ever end
Even when the sky is falling
I’ve seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do
It doesn’t matter what you’ve heard
Impossible is not a word
Its just a reason for someone not to try
Everybody’s scared to death
You may decide to take that step
Out on the water
But it’ll be all right
Life is so much more
Than what your eyes are seeing
You will find your way
If you keep believing
(Chorus)
Overcome the odds
When you don’t have a chance
(That’s what faith can do)
When the world says you can’t
It will tell you that you can
(Repeat Chorus)
Even if you fall sometimes
You will have the strength to rise

Curled!!!
Jesse curled it and then took the pictures. She did a really good job. I told her that I wanted her to curl my hair so she did and it didn't take very long, especially since she used our straightener. I think it looks really cute in the back. This is my favorite shirt too.

Before & After
After:
It is so short now! My mom did all of this. (With help from Jesse) And they also cut my bangs and "fixed them up." My dad thought this all was great! (as you can see) Jesse wanted to curl it so bad but I said, "No I want to enjoy it how it is for a while, but you can do it later." She kept asking to and finally I gave in to a crimp, but that didn't work out very well so we just left it how it was. I'll make a later post and show a picture of my curled hair.
