Introduction

I am a mother of seven children.  We have four girls and three boys.
I just became a grandma last September!  Our beautiful granddaughter is now seven months old.
So, my oldest graduated from BYU-I two years ago as an RN.  My second son returned from his mission to the California, Fresno Mission last June.  I have twins who are still serving missions in Texas, Fort Worth and Arizona, Tucson Mission.  I have three daughters still at home.  One is a Junior in high school, one is in 7th grade, and one is in 2nd grade.
We love to travel, boat, ski, and 4-wheel together as a family.  Actually, we love to do anything together as a family.  I LOVE my family!
It has always been my dream to be a teacher.  I am hoping to graduate to make this dream become reality.
I am excited to get to know others in my community as I pursue my goal.

The parable of the Good Samaritan

When the Savior taught the parable of the Good Samaritan, he was teaching us who are neighbor was and how we should treat each other.  President M. Russel Ballard in his talk, "Doctrine of Inclusion", says, "His deliberate use of Jews and Samaritans clearly teaches that we are all neighbors and that we should love, esteem, respect, and serve one another despite our deepest differences—including religious, political, and cultural differences."
We may not always understand why people act the way they do.  We cannot understand the struggles of others, but we know of the one who does understand.  Our Heavenly Father understands perfectly the struggles of each of his children.
