March Madess

You know your blog isn't that important to you when it's been over a year since your last post! Ha! There's a lot to catch up on in not much time. I've been attending the University of Wyoming, studying Accounting and Music (though it is sad for me to say that the music bit may have ended at the end of last semester). I love the University and although I get frustrated every once in a while, I know this is where I need to be. I started working as a part-time Nanny at the beginning of the Spring semester and I am absolutely in love with my two boys (ages 2 and 4). If at any point in the near future I refer to my boys, they are who I am referencing. The Lord has been amazing to me the last year and especially the last couple of months! 

Since it is the month of March, I have been fully active in participating in March Madness! Without the basketball anyways :P I have been reading the Book of Mormon and will finish reading it from front to back within the month of March. What a wonderful experience it has been so far! I have forgotten some things that can be learned by reading it in such a short amount of time. And my life has gone so much smoother for putting study before play (and before school studies lol). 

The most recent thing that has stuck with me was after King Benjamin gave his address, the people gave burnt offerings to the Lord (no surprise there), but they also gave thanks for allowing their fathers to come to the promised land. That happened hundreds of years before King Benjamin! Do I thank Heavenly Father for those who found this land and for fighting for freedom, even though it happened hundreds of years ago? Sure we celebrate Independence Day once a year, but is that enough? I know I do not thank Heavenly Father enough for these wonderful blessings that I have been given. Now is my time to start doing better. :)
