"In our search to obtain relief from the stresses of life, may we earnestly seek ways to simplify our lives. May we comply with the inspired counsel and direction the Lord has given us in the great plan of happiness. May we be worthy to have the companionship of the Holy Ghost and follow the guidance of the Spirit as we navigate this mortal journey. May we prepare ourselves to accomplish the ultimate purpose of this mortal test- to return and live with our Heavenly Father."

1st grade award




Carly had an awards ceremony today in her classroom.  I love being able to be a part of all these little class parties and celebrations. It's only going to double next year!
Carly got the "Life Saver Award" She finishes first and is always willing to help others.  Her teacher also mentioned that Carly is the top reader in their class. She is reading at 150 words per minute (She later told me that the next child down is reading at 90!)  Her teacher has always mentioned how smart and bright Carly is. I for one and proud of this little girl and as silly as it sounds I was almost brought to tears when she came up to receive her award. I can't believe she'll be heading to 2nd grade! When did that happen?!
