eager eager... here and then...

here's the story, of a girl named mandy

who was thinking of a mission in some years

she had though yes and no, o're and o're

but still she had some fears

till the one day when the prophet did announce that...

girls could now go serve a mission at 19

she shed tears and had smiles then shed more tears

and then she got really o-ver-whelmed, now is stumped.

is really stumped...

is really stumped...

that's the way, she became so very stumped...

Moral of the story, I have always thought that I should go, and when the news came I was so overwhelmed and it was so exciting! I wrote Nick a letter of confidence and it felt amazing! And as the day settled in and the realities became closer I realized there is a lot to do before I am ready for a mission. Yes, I do think there will be a day when leaving for a mission will be right. But at this moment (yes this may change, and probably will change 100x) I don't think my 19th birthday will be the date. But I am very pleased to know that now, whenever the time is right, I won't have to wait until I turn 21.

Either way, the news is very exciting for all you folks out there who are ready to go now and have been waiting and preparing for your 21st! (or 19th for the men out there!) 

RETURN WITH HONOR

On another note, today we went to conference! (saturday, second session) it was such a fun experience to be there with the people I am closest too and feed off of each other.

Two favorite thoughts:

1. In your morning prayer each new day, ask Heavenly Father to lead you to his children who needs service, and stay focused on the spirits promptings

2. We can't just not do bad things, we must actively be doing good things.

Also, we went in the Disney store... They had a mini castle!! (am i a child or what) 

My life long dream to be a Disney princess was filled for a moment there! ;)

well... i hope you have a marvelous conference weekend! tune in where ever you find yourself to listen to the living prophets!

the little sis.
