I have a testimony in Jesus Christ and in Heavenly Father. I know that they love me so much they established a plan that allows me to return to live with them. I have a testimony of the Book of Mormon and of Joseph Smith, I know Heavenly Father restored the gospel through him. The Book of Mormon is another testament of Jesus Christ and his love for me. I have a testimony of Thomas S. Monson. I know he is a living prophet and through him we receive guidance from our Father in Heaven. I know going on my mission is the right thing to do, I want to become a tool in the hands of the Lord. I know that Fort Lauderdale is the place I am supposed to go and the Lord will help me on my path. I know families can be together forever, that I will be able to see my grandmother and other relatives that have passed on when I too leave this world and return to Him.

In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Cute Conversation About Elder Park's Little Sister....

Me: Leah’s PTC went great! I pray that she stays this way all through school!!

The teachers love her! She is helpful and so smart. She is getting a 4.0 as of right now. Last quarter she got a 3.95, but one of her teachers found some work that she had forgotten to enter. She got it corrected and it updated her GPA to 4.0. Leah is really happy about that. One teacher wants her to try out for Debate next year and the other wants her to do Choir. She does have a pretty voice, it would be nice for her to learn how to use it better.

Elder Park: ... NOT DEBATE... we will never be able to tell her she is wrong that's like giving her lessons on arguing!!!! Choir sounds like a great idea!

Me: HAHAHA!!
She already won’t let anyone tell her she is wrong!

Elder Park: so don't let her get better at doing so!

Me: Now come on, let’s look at it this way… She needs to be able to stand up for herself when it comes to boys. ;)
Garret won’t let us even talk about those kinds of things, he is not ok with the “boy” conversation.

Elder Park: what do you mean "boys" she only has "girls" from now on.

Me: Well, you are two years older and shockingly, so is your little sister! And, your younger brother!
 
Elder Park: Garret can grow up all he wants but Leah is always 11 to me...
I thought about that a lot I am always surprised by how much she has grown, Garret meh, I knew he would, but I thought I would come home to my ittie bittie little sister! I never planned on her growing!

Me: It is kinda weird, isn’t it? She is becoming a beautiful young lady! She is smart and kind and wants to help others. She still does argue with us and Garret. She is responsible and makes sure that she does what is asked of her. With her calling in church, Beehive Pres, she has meetings almost every Sunday after church. She never misses her meetings and is always prepared.

Elder Park: wow she is growing up! is she eating vegetables yet?

Me: Hahaha!! No!


Proof that she still isn't as grown up as she wants to be!
