Learning to tie laces...


I am grateful for being able to learn and grow!
This week Aubrie learned how to tie shoes laces! Such a big deal with most kids is to learn how do to this. She was so proud of herself. I am blessed with such bright, smart kiddos. They surprise me and impress me with their abilities!
I also have gratitude for being able to keep going to school myself. Mitch has been such a great provider and supporter, for me to be able to achieve some of my goals when it comes to education. I always appreciated President Hinckley because he supported women getting an education and being smart when it comes to being prepared for the future. I feel very strongly that he foresaw what our economy and world was heading. It is important for us to take hold of our future and the future of our children. We as women are capable of carrying the weight on our shoulders to help in times of need and I am glad I have been given an outlet to be somebody other than a mom or wife. I am a person and I have dreams and aspirations just like everyone. Just because you become a wife/mother doesnt mean we have to give those dreams up. So I am glad I am able to go to college and grow and learn more about myself and what I am capable of.
