Cowgirl is great at art, science, and math. Her reading and language arts skills have been slower in coming; but she has made huge leaps and bounds, especially over the past 6 months. She has put a lot of effort into reading and this last Sunday we were able to visually see the improvements in a fun way. Cowgirl was asked to give a talk in primary. I guess I should also add that although she's very social, she doesn't like to be in front of a large group of people, yet. Here's the talk she gave. By herself. She only stumbled on one work, courage. I was so proud of her as she read it loud, clear, and slow. It was a wonderful Mommy moment that helped me feel like, "Yeah, she's getting it! The hard work is paying off!" We love you Cowgirl!!!!!
Remembering Jesus helps me
choose the right.
In Joshua 24:15 we read:
"Choose you this day whom ye will serve; ... but as for me and my house,
we will serve the Lord".
Every day I make choices. I choose
what to wear, what to say, what to read and watch, and how to act. The ability
to make choices is a gift from Heavenly Father. It is called agency. Using our
agency is an important part of Heavenly Father's plan for me.
Heavenly Father will help me choose
the right. I am a child of God, and He wants me to return to live with Him
again. I can pray to Heavenly Father anytime, anywhere, and He will bless me
with courage to choose the right.
Jesus Christ will help me choose the
right. He is "the way, the truth, and the life" and the perfect
example for me to follow. I will choose the right when I ask myself, "What
would Jesus want me to do?"
Remembering Jesus helps me choose
the right.
