Joy in our Journey

 Carolyn is such an amazing example to me of being a missionary! She definitely has a gift of loving and sharing the true gospel of Jesus Christ. When the students and Librarian in Carolyn's class were talking about their favorite thing they did in the summer, Carolyn told her class and teacher that her favorite thing she did in the summer was getting baptized. That led to a discussion of Carolyn telling them what it means to be baptized. The Librarian and students had questions for her that she answered beautifully - what faith and amazing example of truly living those baptismal covenants - remembering the Savior and sharing His light with others.  Another time, her teacher asked the class how they are challenged in life. Carolyn raised her hand and told them about Family Home Evening!! She explained it was something we had each week in our family. And in that in Family Home Evening we teach each other. After we teach each other, we challenge each other to be better in a certain way that week. I loved that! Today Carolyn demonstrated another way we can be a missionary to all those around us. She brought home this paper home. They were asked what their favorite movie is.

....and I love that Carolyn thought of this sentence in her spelling test...about being weak from running a marathon. I just ran my 2nd half marathon a few weeks ago and maybe seemed a little weak from it. It made smile!
