I am now 36. I lived in the States since Dec 1997. I joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saint on my 19th birthday June 29, 1997.
Time flies and now I am a mother with three little kids, 6, 8 and 10. The last 15 years went by and I did not even have time to reflect on it. I am grateful for the Gospel which helps me to focus on what matter most in this life.
We just told another family picture at the temple last week after stake conference. It is always amazing go see how much they grow.
This couple years Brennan has a hard time at school. He was bullied verbally at recess and was not able to find good friends. Therr were days he would cry when I picked him up. He had his bad habit of picking nose and other things, but he really has a tender heart that is always willing to help those in need. We work with the school councilor and his room teacher Mr. Wells. I am happy to see Brennan is happier. He starts to have his little "saxophone" gang and his best friend Stella. He even got picked to be the leader of the "Pack"=class and attended a special breakfast.
When I praised him for his good work. "I just try to do what you teach me Mom!". This gives me alot of comfort. I know I am not the best mom on earth, but I am trying. I do not see what influence I have on him until moment like this.
Recently he also sent an email to the principal to see if he can be called early after Mr. Wells failed to fight for him go be call earlier than his own class. I am so proud to say the fifth grade team agree to call his name early.
