Motherhood:-An-Eternal-Partnership

I didn't know what I was thinking when I thought I could work full time and be a mother. Some people do it and it works well for them, but not the case for me. Everyone has different situations and you got to do what's best for your family. Last year about this time I started teaching full time to middle school students, and it was tough. As I was trying to build a relationship with my students I felt I was losing my precious relationship with my girls. I can tell Eve was very frustrated with the situation which explains her biting me when I came home. Anyhow to make along story short I DiScOvErEd that my role in this family is VITAL! I believe all parents roles are VITAL in their children's life and that should never be doubted. However I do feel that mothers play a very unique and special role in their children's life. At times it may seem mundane but just know you are going about a wonderful work, God's work.

P.s. This video I view quite frequently especially if Eve is throwing a tantrum. Somehow I get a renewed perspective. Motherhood:-An-Eternal-Partnership

P.s.s. This Saturday is the General Relief Society meeting (uplifting spiritual talks). It starts at 6pm and you can count on being spiritually filled. Visit this website for additional information about the broadcast http://lds.org/broadcast/grsm/0,6220,285,00.html Start preparing your mind & heart now to receive those answers you've been searching for whether it be in parenting, marriage or just life in general.

This is Eve at Hukilau throwing one of her tantrums and this is usually my face when it happens. I think I was trying to cool her off by splashing cold water on her. Yah I know cruel;)

Juanita's Conversion Story

I feel that Heavenly Father has blessed me with the desire to play softball. The fact that the Lord was guiding me to play softball became more evident to me when I was offered a scholarship to play ball at BYU-Hawaii. The thought of attending BYU-Hawaii just seemed right and good at the time so I attended college there. My first year in college I was so excited to learn, play, and party. I discovered real soon that the students who attended the university had fun without drinking. I also discovered that the people were faithful and they had a strong sense of purpose and Identity. This compelled me to go on a spiritual search. I decided to take the lessons from the missionaries from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As I took the lessons I was taught things that I heard before and things that were new to me. Such as the Book of Mormon and the prophet Joseph Smith. These were things that were a challenge for me to believe. So I took these challenges up to the Lord and I asked him if the Book of Mormon is the word of God and if Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God. I'm so delighted to share with you that I do know that the Book of Mormon is true and that the Prophet Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God. I know that it's true because of the power of the Holy Spirit, because of these truths and much more I decided to be baptized and serve the Lord. Getting baptized was the best decision I ever made. It's because of this choice that I enjoy the blessing of life today. The church is true and I find myself indebt to the Lord forever.
