My Katherine is turning 12 next week...Young Women's Program...Here We Come... Full Throttle!For those who have known me for many years, you know that I have been a Young Women Leader for the daughters of everyone else while I was raising my three sons (yes, I know it sounds like a TV Show...trust me..we were far more entertaining at every turn!!!)
I LOVE the Young Women Program and especially the incredible 12-18 year old girls I get to know and hold dear in my heart and thoughts.
Back in the day, I am not sure I ever imagined I would have a daughter of my own, yet now I have TWO daughters and look forward to every minute they have waiting for them as they embrace The Young Women Program of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
I bought this Talk on CD by Laurel Christensen last week and was too excited to wait until Katherine's Birthday to open it. As soon as I heard her first few thoughts, I was so happy I did not wait to listen to it. This was THE PERFECT message for my almost Young Women Age daughter. Actually this is THE PERFECT message for any Young Woman, Her Parents, and Her Leaders.
We are on DAY 6 of Katherine listening to this CD everywhere we go. She is quoting Laurel right and left.
As a Mother, I NEED voices like Laurel's to help my daughters make their way in this world. There are few places a Young Woman can have the reinforcement that she is, indeed, A Daughter of A Heavenly Father Who Loves Her. My deep gratitude to Laurel for her pure spirit, energy, and focus on The Gospel of Jesus Christ. LAUREL is AMAZING and God Knows It!
Now...here is a side story regarding Katherine. This morning she said, "I think Laurel should be introduced to John Bytheway" (trust me..they know each other). "They both love Heavenly Father and want to keep his commandments. They make ME want to keep the commandments" (Thank you, Thank You with my Loudest Mother Voice!)
If you have been reading my blog for awhile (bless you) you may remember these John Bytheway experiences that are unique to me and my family.
There are not enough positive voices like Laurel's and John's in this world.
