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

Even in Hard Times

As we get older we learn life isn't always doughnuts and milkshakes. Life is hard, being a product member of society is hard. Sometimes I think that we are hard too hard on ourselves. We never let ourselves take a break and just rejoice in the wonderful life that we are living. Sometimes we all are busy, we all have families, school, evening activities that we use to try and replace the brokenness we feel in our hearts sometimes. Some of us have felt the brokenness for quite a while now but others are just now starting to feel it. (now I'm not saying all of our lives are broken but admit it you have felt sad in your life about something). So how do we truly fix this? How do we unmask ourselves and start to really feel better about our lives? I believe that we should start by looking in the mirror and realizing we are doing the best that we possibly can. If it helps get a dry erase marker and right on your mirror something positive. Here are some ideas you could...

2016: A Year of Learning and Thankfulness

2016. This year has definitely been a year of learning. Learning who I am and who I'm suppose to become. I've learned this year that I can do anything that I set my mind to do and that I just need possible. I'm not who I was a year ago and I've learned to be okay with that. I'm coming to terms with the fact that I'm a totally different person than I was even two years ago. I've learned that life goes on. And I've learned that things don't always go as planned. I've learned that things happen for a reason and that things happen in Heavenly Father's time, not ours. I've learned that our plans don't always go accordingly and to be grateful for every moment because we won't be able to get those moments back. This year I've also learned to be thankful. Thankful for my family, who support me, in every decision I make. Thankful for my warm home on winter nights and a cool home on those warm July days. I'm th...
