When I grow up...

...I want to be:

1) As boss
as Professor McGonagall.


2) As 
classy a fashionista
as Princess Kate.



3) As confident in my individual
talents and abilities
as Adele.



4) As ladylike as
my grandmas.



5) As good hearted as
and sweet
 either of my grandpas.




6) As diligent and
perseverant
as my dad.



7) As earnestly dedicated 
of a wife and mother
as my mom.



8) As
steadfast
a testifier
as Sister Dalton.



9) And as optimistic
and wise as
Sister Hinckley.


Time to set some more goals :)



Quotes of the day:

" 'Thank you' is a wonderful phrase.  Use it.  It will add stature to your soul. "
--Marjorie Pay Hinckley

"Elder Neal A. Maxwell once said,'We are here in mortality, and the only way to go is through; there isn't any around!' I would add, the only way to get through life is to laugh your way through it.  You either have to laugh  or cry.  I prefer to laugh.  Crying gives me a headache."
--Marjorie Pay Hinckley


"As we got closer to marriage, I felt completely confident that Gordon loved me.  But I also knew somehow that I would never come first with him.  I knew I was going to be second in his life and that the Lord was going to be first.  And that was okay.  It seemed to me that if you understood the gospel and the purpose of our being here, you would want a husband who put the Lord first."
--Marjorie Pay Hinckley
