1st semester DONE!

I finished my 1st semester of school on April 9th. I got an A in both my Book of Mormon class and my Life Skills class! I was really happy to get an A in both classes. It just shows me that I can do more than I thought. Looking back I learned a lot of great things and I grew in some areas I didn't think I would grow in.

My 2nd semester started this last Tuesday. I am taking a Family Foundations class and a Basic Writing class.

The Family Foundation class covers The Family: The Proclamation to the World that our church's First Presidency (the Prophet/President of our church and his counselors) and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles presented to our church as well as to the entire world back in 1995. If you would like to read the proclamation, I have linked it for you, just click HERE. I am really excited for this class! I know that the proclamation was and is an inspired document. I also know that as I study the proclamation in greater depth, I will be able to strengthen my relationship with Jeff, our kids, and my Father in Heaven.

I am really nervous for the Basic Writing class. I do not enjoy writing, especially when the topic I have to write on is chosen by a teacher or someone else. Then there is the issue of wondering if what I am writing about is what the teacher is wanting. When faced with this situation I have a hard time gathering my thoughts and I second guess myself and what I have written. I really wish Jeff could take this class for me as he loves to write. I know that if he did take this class for me I wouldn't improve my writing abilities, but it sure would be nice if he could.

Here's to a new semester and learning more!
