Some of my kids


_______________

A3


Me,
Delett
- Sweet, hates getting in
trouble, when confident it's easy to tell she's quick and intelligent.
Dephany
- Watches out for and
cares for her friends, always kind, sometimes distracted.
Gabriela- Fun, happy, positive, participates,
very smart and quick, creative, confident but so kind
to everyone and loves so much. I want to be like her when I grow up!
Bianca- so bubbly, very funny,
hard-working (she goes straight to "her" restaurant after school and
works until 11 pm every day including Sat. and Sun., too much work for a 7th grader in my opinion, no wonder why she's tired and can't concentrate sometimes!)
Andrea
- Just moved (3 months ago)
from Peru, extremely talkative, overwhelmed by English but learning a lot, sassy and funny.
Jun
- one of my favorites,
makes me laugh every day, he's like a boyband member from South Korea- always dancing/talking/singing/complaining...hilarious.

enjoy


What a blessing when we can and choose to enjoy this life.

But when we can't...

"...that I suffer the will of the Lord in the flesh, it mattereth not,
if it so be that I am saved in the kingdom of God."

Ether 15:34, The Book of Mormon

While we're in this "flesh" on this earth we'll all suffer something; physical/mental/emotional weakness and trials. But if we can remember our goal to be "saved in the kingdom of God" then maybe this life won't bear us down so much sometimes.

But, how wonderful when we can and choose to enjoy this life!
