My friend said to me after Max was born, "Atleast one of us has a hispanic baby!" She is by parentage hispanic, but her husband is "fish-belly white." Her babies are fare skinned, light eyes... Mine has a mustache at two!
YOUNG WOMENS NEW BEGINNINGS

Each of the colors is represented in my outfit. Not seen are the purple scrunchy and the gold ribbon in my hair. This spectacle had a purpose in my talk. Faith (white tights): strong like the muscles of the legs to carry us forward in this great work and teaches humility to drop to our knees in prayer. Divine Nature (blue sweater): Know that each of us is son or daughter of God. Wrap this around you like a warm sweater and take comfort in you divine heritage. Individual Worth (red belt): Look at this belt. Your individual worth has nothing to do with what size you are, what you look like or what your body type may be. It has everything to do with you being of great worth to our Heavenly Father. Knowledge (green dress): Cover your life with knowledge and learning. You can never get too much. Choice & Accountablity (orange shirt): make choices consistent with what you know in your heart to be true, what you've been taught by goodly parents and the Holy Ghost. The accounting will be with peace and confidence. Good Works (yellow shoes): May each step you take carry you toward service for your fellowmen and God. Integrity (purple scruncy): Be like this scruncy- it does what it says its going to do. Virtue (gold ribbon around head): Wrap your thoughts and desires in virtue without ceasing.





New Beginnings for our Young Womens program was beautiful. All of our young women and their parents came. The Spirit was strong and we felt nourished by the testimonies shared.
