"The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul. No matter our talents, education, backgrounds or abilities, we each have an inherent wish to create something that did not exist before. Everyone can create. You don’t need money, position, or influence in order to create something of substance or beauty. You might say, I am not the creative type. If that is how you feel, think again. Creation is your opportunity in this life….. Start small. Creativity does not require a brush, a pen, or the keys of a piano. Don’t let the voice of critics paralyze you. You will make the World a better place. Improve, beautify, extend, smile, cultivate, develop, create."
~President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Gratitude post day 8

Today I feel grateful for my calling. I love the Primary. I love these children. I have a desire to help them know how much they are loved by our Heavenly Father and Savior Jesus Christ. I want them to be able to recognize what the Spirit feels like. I want them to know that no matter what they see or hear from others, They Are Loved. Also, I love Sundays.

My parents and Grandma Perry came over for birthday tonight. Parker is in Arizona for the weekend so we FaceTimed him. Both of the girls were so excited about the new Frozen books and Lexie loves clothes and shoes. She pulled them out and said "Ee pants! Ee shirt!" With a grin and her eyebrows raised. She blew out the candles tonight like a boss. She didn't want to wait until the song was over! I'm so grateful that my parents have always supported me in all that I do.











I didn't get any pictures of Grandma Perry. :( She played with Lexie and her new doll a little. I love that woman. I'm grateful for the selfless service she has taught me.
