Sorry!

Hi everyone. I am so sorry that I did not post parts of my books today. I was more busy than I expected...
I won't be able to post it tomorrow also, for I will also be busy.
I will try my hardest to post my blog this week. I hope you have a fab Sunday!
                                                              Bye! : D

Announcements & Questions

Hello awesome girls! I am just going to tell you that I will be posting V.H.T. (Victoria Hope Talean) and B.C.T. (Babysitter:Chelsea Trust) tomorrow, so please feel free to check that out.
I also still urge you to comment me or email me to send in requests for songs, ideas for posts, or just to say hi! I really want to hear from you!!
Here are a few questions to strike up a conversation.

• How is my blog? Does it make your computer time enjoyable?
• Do you like my music videos? Do they encourage you to go on with the day? Tell others about Jesus?
• Do you not understand anything about my blog such as Christianity or what I post about? 
• Are my books a good addiction to the site? Do they make you think about anything you have never thought of before? Do you want to ask me what something means?

 I would be happy to answer all of your questions! Just post a comment in the comment section below.

TobyMac - Me Without You

This video is in honor of my friend Chickadee, because she requested a TobyMac song, and of my brothers, because they are lego freaks!

Superchick - Hero

This song makes me cry. It makes me realize that this world is full of bullying, and I want to do something about that. I want to be a hero. I don't like to rap part, but I like the lyrics of the rap.

Squeaker!!!

Hi everybody! I bet you are all wondering what 'squeaker' is. Well, he is my brand new baby guinea pig!!
We went to the pet store yesterday and picked him out! I wish I could post a picture of him, but sadly, i can't. I don't know how to do that.
But anyway, Squeaker is really soft and it feels like you are touching air when you are petting him. And he is soooooooooo light! My estimated amount of his weight is probably around one pound!
We have another guinea pig named Oreo (mentioned in my profile) too, but he is older. Not really old, only like about 3 years old. We had to get another friend for Oreo because my other guinea pig named Ginger/Gingerbread died about a month ago from cancer. We got a younger one since they are supposed to have a father/son relationship, because if we got a older one they would probably fight with each other.
I LOVE SQUEAKER!!
                                                              Your blogger,
                                                           Guinea Pig Lover 

Chris August - Unashamed Of You

 This video inspired me to tell the gospel message about Jesus Christ being our one and only Savior!

Superchick - Stand in the Rain

            Heard this on the radio this Sunday. I love the music and the lyrics! It inspired me!

Babysitter: Chelsea Trust PART 2

Before Chelsea could look over the drawing, she heard the phone ring. It made her jump. All of the nine family members had a phone in their room. Of course only one phone per room, though. That way, when everybody heard the phone ring they could to see if it was for them or not. If it wasn't,  the wouldn't answer. If the phone wasn't answered on the third ring Mom or Dad would answer it.
Chelsea jumped out off the bed and quickly rushed to the phone. The caller I.D. said,"Lavite, Cole."
She quickly pressed the green button and said,"Hello?"
"Hi, can I talk to Chelsea?" asked the girl on the phone.
"You're talking to her. Hi, Hayden!" said Chelsea smiling.
"Oh, hi! You sound like your mom!" laughed Hayden.
"I don't know if that's a good thing!"joked Chelsea.
"Anyway, what's up?" asked Hayden Rose Lavite.
"Nothing new. Oh, besides finding out that my sister is a born-to-be drawer." stated Chelsea.
"Oh really? Which one?" asked Hayden.
"Alisha. I'm really surprised I never noticed it before."
"Alisha's the younger one right?"
Chelsea was used to this. Jada and Bridget were the only ones who knew every ones names and ages.
"Yeah..." said Chelsea.
"So what kind of stuff does she draw?"
"Amazing stuff! Like, I was just looking at a picture that was crazily detailed! It's a drawing of our whole family at the store. Mom and Dad are looking at furniture, Mason, James, Nathan, and Peyton were looking at D.V.D.s, and Skylar, Alisha, and I were looking at shoes. All in one picture! I mean-it looked like she took a picture and printed it off of the computer!" said Chelsea excitedly.
"That's really cool!"
"Isn't it? I wonder why I never noticed it before. Well, I guess that's what you get for not paying attention to my little sister..." said Chelsea sadly. It's amazing how much emotions you can go through in less than one minute.
"Don't blame yourself, Chel. You do have six other brothers and sisters." said Hayden.
"Hayden, I share a room with her. You think I would have seen something by now! It's been ten years!" argued Chelsea.
She heard Hayden sigh. Chelsea knew Hayden would never win this argument. After all, Hayden was a only child, so she knew nothing about brothers and sisters.
Finally, Hayden changed the subject.
"So... Did anyone call you about babysitting their little ones?" asked Hayden.
"As a matter of fact, someone has..."
"Who, when, why, and where?" asked Hayden eager to know.
"The Alquists, Thursday, at their house, and because they are going on a date." answered Chelsea how her older brother, James, does.
"Do you know how much they are paying you?" asked Hayden as she chuckled.
"No, I didn't ask."
"Well, good luck." said Hayden.
"Thanks."
There was an awkward silence.
"Well, my mom says I need to go, so bye." said Hayden.
"Bye, Hayden. Remember to email me..." said Chelsea.
"Oh, one more thing..." said Hayden quickly.
"Yeah?"
"Do you know Josephina or Josey Lansky?" asked Hayden.
"Doesn't ring a bell. Why?"
"Well, she's a new girl at church and I was wondering if you ever talked to her."
"No, I have never heard that name before. How old is she?"
"Thirteen or Fourteen." answered Hayden.
"Ohhhh noooo! I don't associate with teens! That's Skylar's job!"
"Oh, okay... I'm going to talk to her next Sunday and tell her that you're nuts in the head!" teased Hayden.
"Hey!" shouted Chelsea.
Hayden laughed a evil laugh. "I've got to go. I'll remember to email you..."
"Okay." said Chelsea.
"Bye." said the friends in unison.
"Jinx!" said Chelsea.
She hung up and tucked Alisha's drawings back to where she found them.
Luckily, she got them in just before Alisha walked in the door.
"Hi, Lish! What's for dinner?"
"Quiet down! Mom thinks I'm in the bathroom. I need a rest and she wouldn't give me one." said Alisha.
"Ol' Mom give you too much to do?" asked Chelsea smiling.
"Yes! She wouldn't let me go a second without doing something. And she wonders why no one ever wants to help her prepare food!" complained Alisha.
Chelsea just nodded her head. Good old Mom!

Babysitting, Books, and Awesomeness!

Hi awesome girls!! This is Guinea Pig Lover. I hope you have been reading my book Victoria Hope Talean! I'm sorry I only post a part every other week most of the time, but that is the only time I can do it. I hope you like my new book Babysitter: Chelsea Trust too! I don't really know what you all are into so I'll try to make the best of it... Any ideas on more blogs and what you are interested in? Just post a comment! I would love to here from you! Honestly!

Guess what! I got a babysitting job on Thursday this week! I am going to tell you all about it!
Here goes:
Okay, so if you have been on my blog already you have probably read my other babysitting post called,"Babysitting My Little Cuz". Well, if you haven't read it already do so now... Okay, so anyway, I babysat Maddex while his little brother Eli was having a physical therapy app. in the house sometime in June. Well, this time, I babysat Eli instead. And this time it was at my house. My whole family was home with me, but I was in charge of watching Eli. Well, let's just say that Eli loves his mommy- A LOT! When she left he cried for about ten minutes until I could find a way to distract him. Well, I found a way! Eli LOVES outside! He also LOVED me pushing him on this little tricycle too! In fact, when my back and neck hurt from bending over I stopped pushing him and took him off... He got back on!! Then he tried to push himself. How cute! So then I sucked up my back and neck pain and pushed him around some more... Then I had to call it quits. Good thing he was hungry! So we went inside and I gave him his lunch that my aunt packed for him- chicken noodle soup, green beans, and cheese cubes. He really liked the cheese... When his mom came back she gave me ten dollars just for watching him for two hours! That would only be four bucks for a different family! So that was my second babysitting experience and I hope to be having more...
                                                                     See ya,
                                                                 Guinea Pig Lover
P.S. Remember to post comments!

Victoria Hope Talean (Part 6)

    "Is she going to be alright, Mom?" asked Victoria in the waiting room at the hospital.
"Tracy is going to be fine." said Mom.
"How many stitches does she need?" asked Kayla.
"A lot, that's all I know. When the glass hit her it cut deep into her skin and that's why she collapsed. It was probably really painful. That and some glass hit her legs." replied Mom.
"Is Jackie going to be alright too?" asked Torie.
"Yes. She only needs 4 stitches in her arms. She is not at all as bad as Tracy is." said Mom.
Makayla started to cry.
"It's all right, Kayla. Your sister is going to be perfectly alright." assured Mom.
"I'm just wondering what would have happened if she hadn't picked the glass mug. Maybe if she hadn't, we would still be at the store shopping." cried Kayla.
Torie starred at Kayla. She had never seen her cry before. If something like this would have happened in the past Victoria would be the one crying and Makayla would be the one starring.
"I know, honey. But God doesn't want us to always stay in the land of maybe all the time." said Mom.
"I know." said Kayla as she sniffed.
"There's nothing you can do know but pray." said Mom.
"Okay. I will." said Kayla.
"Good. The LORD will help with whatever problem you have."
"Mom, I'm going to go to the restroom." said Victoria.
"Okay. We'll be here." said Mom.
With that said, Torie got up and walked away. When she was safely in the bathroom she wept bitterly..

                                _______________________________________

  The day after, the Talean family were all sitting at the table to eat lunch.
"Dear God,
Thank you for this food. Thank you that Tracy and Jackie weren't injured too bad and that they both only needed stitches. I want to ask you to help my sister Christina battle cancer and that she will be well or that Christina will die and live with you in heaven. Either way we will praise you for it. Lord, I also want to pray for all the missonaries in all the different countries and in our country who tell people about you. Please keep them safe. I pray all of this in Jesus' name,
                                      Amen." said Mom.
"Thank you, dear."said Dad.
Mom nodded.
The Taleans started to dig into their meal of chicken, green beans, and corn.
"Yummy! Thank you, Mom, for lunch." said Zachery.
"You're welcome." replied Mom.
The rest of the day was going by slowly. Mom said everybody could have alone time in the afternoon, so everybody went to their rooms.  Victoria read a book called,"Amy Carmichael" for 'alone time'. Amy Carmichael was a missionary in 1800s and 1900s. She was a missionary in India.
After that, the kids went outside and rode their bikes in the yard.
"Hey, Torie? I was wondering if you guys even went shopping yesterday or if Tracy just picked up that glass mug in the very beginning?" asked Justin when the two were alone.
"It was right in the beginning. Mom and Mrs. Rachel were just going over to the clothes section." replied Torie.
"Oh..." said Justin.
And that was the end of the conversation...

Babysitter: Chelsea Trust PART 1

"Dear Jada,
 I wish you were still here. I've missed your company. Bridget misses you too. I hope you can come to my house soon. Maybe you can ask your mom and dad if you guys can spend Easter with us up here. You could even stay at my house! My parents won't mind.
Guess what! My mom said I'm finally old enough to start babysitting myself. Cha-ching! Money will be coming like crazy! Maybe if I get enough money you and I could go shopping at the mall! I'd pay for both of us of 'course. It would be so fun! 
The Alquists said they need a babysitter, so I'm going to start on Thursday. Wish me luck!      Until then,
                            ~Chelsea Trust~

"There!" said Chelsea Lillian Trust as she admired her letter for her best friend.
Jada Duss, Chelsea's best friend, had moved away a month ago tho Denver, Colorado. Ever since then, the two girls have been calling every week at least once and have been writing letters. According to Chelsea, it was about a year ago since Jada moved. They both missed each other a lot!
"Chelsea, I really don't know why you talk to Jada so much!" said Chelsea's older sixteen year old sister, Skylar.
"Bridget and I really miss her. If your best friend Debra Kister moved away you would do the same thing." said the eleven year old Chelsea.
Skylar just rolled her eyes. Sometimes little sisters were a pain.
"What are you girls fighting about now?" asked Mom (also know as Amelia Eden Trust).
"Skylar's making fun of me." said Chelsea. 
"Honestly..." Mom let out a puff of air.
Just then, Mason, the 18 year old, walked into the kitchen.
"Hey, guys." said Mason as he gave a little half wave.
He'd been out running, that's for sure. His face was red and sweaty. And that smell! Stinky!
"Hello Mason." said Mom not noticing her son's body odor."Running again?"
"Yep! I'm going to have a snack, jump in the shower, and then go to the game with Conrad." replied Mason as he opened the fridge.
"The game?" questioned Mom looking up from the cook book she was reading.
"The football game against West Wood and Iron Mountain." explained Mason Levi Trust.
"Oh... What time will you be home?" asked Mom.
"Around six. We are having dinner out. Why?" asked Mason.
"Just wondering... Just make sure you call me if you'll be later than six, okay?"
Mason nodded. Then, just as quickly as he came in, he went out.
"Chelsea? Will you go call Alisha to the kitchen? She's going to help me make dinner." said Mom.
"Sure." said Chelsea as she got up from the table.
"Thank you, Chelsea. By the way, does anyone know where James is?"
James and Skylar were twins. Double trouble dad always said.
"I think Nathan and James are in James and Mason's bedroom." offered Skylar.
Mom just nodded. She never told any of her children why she needed to know, so they never asked to save time.
Chelsea went out to find Alisha. She thought first she better check her and Alisha's bedroom.
Sure enough, Alisha was at their desk that they shared.
"Alisha, Mom said you were going to help her make dinner tonight." said Chelsea as she approached. 
"Do you know what we're having?" asked the ten year old Alisha.
"Nope, not a clue..."
"Okay, tell Mom I'll be there in a sec." replied Alisha.
" 'Kay." said Chelsea as she walked away.
But, before she did, she saw what Alisha was drawing. Chelsea couldn't believe her eyes! Alisha was a born-to-be drawer! She was drawing her self-portrait and it looked like it was a real picture! And if Chelsea hadn't seen Alisha coloring in the lips, she would have thought it was a real picture! She had never seen such drawing. Chelsea just had to tell Mom. 
Once Chelsea got to the kitchen, she caught Mom's attention.
"Mom, Alisha said that she would be here in a second. You wanna know what she was doing?" asked Chelsea excitedly.
"What?" asked Mom uninterested.
"She was drawing her self-portrait!"
"Oh, really?" asked Mom.
"Yeah, and it looked like she printed a picture off of the computer!"
Mom's interest did not improve. She just answered with a "mmm-hmm".
Chelsea rolled her eyes.
Just then, Alisha ran in with a big smile on her face.
"Why 'you smilin' ?" asked Chelsea.
" 'Cause." replied Alisha.
Chelsea just rolled her eyes again. Sometimes her family was bad on answering properly.
"I'm ready, Mom." said Alisha bouncing around the kitchen.
"Okay, dear." answered Mom as she started giving Alisha directions.
Chelsea wandered off into her bedroom. She wanted to see more of Alisha's drawings.
She opened Alisha's big chest at the end of her bed. It had flowers, hearts, and the word Alisha on it.
Chelsea dug around, making sure not to mess anything up. Alisha was very picky on where everything went.
At the bottom of the chest was a bunch of drawings.
Bingo, thought Chelsea.
Chelsea grabbed the pile of papers and shut the chest. Then, she sat on her bed and flipped through the drawings, one by one.
Chelsea was surprised at how good her sister was. She was also surprised that she never noticed it before.
Chelsea stopped flipping. This drawing really caught her eye...
