Gifts to Jesus

Tonight was Young Women's in Excelentants. The the theim was Gifts to Jesus, and each of the girls talked about the projects they have worked on and that was their gift to Jesus. Adrienne was the first to speek because she is done. (ok you can all feel really sorry for Adrienne because I am her mom) I being really tired tonight spoke without thinking. As she was giving her talk about the changes the personal progress has made, she pulled out this little book that Grandma Campbell gave her, and said it took me 2 years to read. K you have to see the book it is maybe 2x2 inches, and maybe a 1/2 inch think very small. So me with out thinking said "because it is so big" Well then I felt bad because she lost all concentration. She did a great job though. The reason it took her 2 years to read, was pride. She felt that Grandma was telling her there was something wrong with her, and she needed to change, but once she looked at the book as something that Grandma gave her because she thought it had some good ideas and it was given out of love she was able to read it, and learn from it. The program was really good and there where a lot of good ideas shared.

For those of you who have kids coming into young women's here are some ideas. Tori, worked on a piano piece and memorized it and preformed it, she did great. Brooke made a lot of dog biscuits and donated them to the humane society. Alina sewed an apron, and then showed her little sister how to make one. Brenda used her faith, and hard work to hunt down a deer this year that was a really neat experience. Each of these girls worked hard, and where really proud of what they had done, and the where all beautiful gifts to Jesus.
