Love Your Parents

(excuse the bad lighting)
I was sitting in Geology class the other day
watching a film on the devastations of tornadoes
and I got an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for
my parents.
I know for a fact that I have kept my parents on their toes
more than they would like to be.
I was that teenager that knew "everything"
and didn't need the advice from my parents and
when my parents told me to be home from a date
at 11:00, I was sure to be there at 11:01 to just to
prove to them I was an "adult" by the way I totally
DONT recommend doing that because it just gets you in
more trouble.
It seems these days that children take their parents for granted,
which is sad to me. You might be saying "how do you know?"
Hello, one of my jobs/hobbies is working with children.

I will be forever grateful to have my parents.
They've taught me a lot and I hope that I am half of
the parents they were to my sister and myself.


Best,
Leslie

Spring Break 2016

This year I was FINALLY able to go on a spring break trip with my family, which was much needed. You see usually my school schedule and work schedule never coincide with when my family is taking their annual trip to the lovely KW but this year it did! I was so excited to be able to go this trip! This year (and every other year) we traveled to Key West, Florida and OMG it was amazing! Even though it was a long(er) trip it was well worth it! There is so much to do there, even if the place itself is only 3 miles wide. My favorite thing to do is the Conch Train ride, its a little train/trolley ride that takes you around KW and tells you historical facts about the place, (maybe I love it a little too much because I am a history guru). But in all seriousness it is nice to actually get away from the demands of life and enjoy time with family and it doesn't hurt that it was in such a beautiful place surrounded by the ocean. On our way to Key West and on our way back home, we stopped at...

Top [Ten] favorite quotes!

Today I am going to talk about my top 10 favorite quotes and why I love them. I think that inspirational quotes are my favorite type of quotes just because as I have gotten older I've learned to rely on them and they help me get through some of the dark times in my life. 1. "Those who move forward with a happy spirit will find that things work out"  -Gordon B. Hinckley I love this quote because I honestly believe in it. I grew up listening to this man talk in conferences and I absolutely love reading his talks. It's so amazing that when I read or listen to his talks how much I feel as though he is talking specifically to me. 2. "You have not failed until you quit trying" -Gordon B. Hinckley See, I told you I love this man. I absolutely love this quote because it is true, I believe that if you keep on trying at something you have won in some regards. 3.  "If you are a little better than you were yesterday, then that is enough" -David A....
