Everyone is different!

Every day I wake up at about 6 am and some times I add an extra 15 minutes when I am feeling quite tired. I say my prayers usually I am half asleep which makes my prayers not as sincere as they should be! I eat quickly before I leave for work! I spend my days playing with twin babies! Matthew has had strep throat the last few days! He has had a fever! He fights you everytime you have to give him medicine. It takes one person to hold him and another person to give him the medicine! They are such sweeties! They like to sneak through every space they can so they can get into mischief like running around the house and getting brother's hot wheels or other toys they shouldn't have! It gives you a good workout chasing little ones! Three of the four children are sick and now the fourth has a fever. I am so grateful that despite the fact that I am not the healthiest person I have not gotten sick with strep. I have only gotten sick twice with a cold since working as a nanny! I love veggies and fruit which helps with the vitamin c I suppose!

I can't have dairy but... drink soy milk , rice milk as well as almond milk and use that as an alternative! It's just so interesting how everyone's bodies are so different. I know individuals that have alot of allergies and have to adjust their eatting by moment. Everyone is different the way they eat, the way they think, the way they act, the way they perceive things about others and themselves.
I am a worrier, analyzer ! I am smart and beautiful. I may not be perfect but I know I am a daughter of God and can do great things! My mind runs a mile a minute and it's hard to really know how to make sense of it all!

Life Decisions and more

Life is full of decisions. We choose to wake up! We choose to make our bed. We choose to go to work and choose what we are going to eat. Each day is filled with many small decisions which leads us to more decisions. Decisions aren't easy especially the bigger ones. We wish to be happy! I wish to be happy has everyone does. I recently have gotten an interview at Fiason School for Autism on Friday. I want to learn more about the profession I am going into (teaching/special education). I love the job I have currently which is being a nanny for four amazing children. It's hard to choose between two amazing experiences. I don't know where this interview with go but I feel that if I can get the job it will be an amazing experience. It's very hard to think about leaving my sweet children that I take care of and grown to love so much! I am not really leaving them. They will always be in my heart no matter where my journey in life takes me!

Applying what I have learned from my Mission

Last night my mind was filled with memories of my amazing mission in Colorado. I have struggles lately with feeling the spirit. I feel at least that I could feel the spirit more often and have more sincere prayer and have more time to reflect and ponder on the wonderful scriptures! I have decided that I am going to reset my goals that I made on my mission. I also want to read my journals of all my spiritual experiences on my mission. My mission changed my life for the better. I learned a great deal. I know that I have lost perspective of the things I learned on my mission. I learned of my great worth and that I am a child of God. As a teenager I struggled a great deal with self-esteem and more! I learned that I was beautiful and that I deserve great things. We are all children of God and deserve great things. We can find such great Joy by following our Heavenly Father and his commandments.

The Twins

The twins are such sweeties! I am a nanny for twins as well as their brothers that are six years old and four years old. They just turned one years old. I must admit it is a challenge at times. There are days of wanting to pull my hair out but, I feel that I have learned so many valuable lessons. Kate and Matthew (the twins) are both walking and moving everywhere. They have been curious of every little thing from day one. They want to know what everything feels like and tastes like. They are amazed by the simple things in life. They get a kick out of all their first achievements. They both grin and bounce up and down. They love to get my water bottle which you would think wasn't something very exciting and walk around with it like it is gold. Other treasured items are straws, plastic cups and the love them all is paper anything. It's been a honor to be able to watch them roll over for the first time and walk and many more first.
