January 2nd 2017

Happy Birthday Aunt Diana! Love you and hope that everything goes well for you!

Happy 5 years to the Mychal and Scott! I am so excited for you both to be parents! You will do great!
So this week my shoes finally gave out. The past 15months I have been wearing the same pair of shoes every day, I was hoping to make them last because I have a love hate relationship with shoe shopping but alas, my right shoe is broken. I can make it talk though. It is kind of like a shoe puppet. I am thinking of getting googly eyes and gluing them on and finding a way to use it in lessons... I think it would be really fun! I have been wrong before however so who know.

I think it will be a great way to start the New Year with some new shoes! Another good way however is to also review personal goals and set some new ones!

In my study of the scriptures today I saw something new. Throughout all of the Bible, Book of Mormon. The Children of Israel leaving Egypt is talked about. Moses parting the red sea is something that has a lot of mention in the scriptures as well. I started to think about that, those things are there for a reason, what is that teaching what does that miracle have to do with me today in 2017? Then I had the thought it was a foundation for them. It is something that they knew happened and that they could not deny.

So I thought "What is my Red Sea?" what do I fall back on when hard times come. What stories do I hear and am told when I become really stubborn? I am still trying to figure that out but I just wanted to share :) and I want you all to think about that as well! What is your Red sea? What brings you peace when hard times come?

Find it and hold on to it.
I love you all! I know that it can be a great year! Go and make it what you want it to be!
