I have a little white board on our fridge that I decided to use to put quotes on that I read or heard somewhere. Someday I will have a quote wall or something to display a bunch of them but I haven’t figured out how to do that yet so it doesn’t look sloppy and drive me crazy.
When you really want something you’ll find a way. When you don’t really want something you’ll find an excuse.
~Girl, Wash Your Face
Whatever standard you’ve set for yourself is where you’ll end up…unless you fight through your instinct and change your pattern.
~Girl, Wash Your Face
Words have power but actions shape our lives.
~Girl, Wash Your Face
When you know better you do better.

Life is to be enjoyed not just endured.

If thoughts make us what we are, and we are to be like Christ, then we must think Christ like thoughts.
~Ezra Taft Benson
Forget yourself and go to work.
Be grateful, humble, smart, prayerful, involved, true, positive, and still.
~Gordon B. Hinckley
Be proud of the work you do the person you are and the difference you make!
God gave the Sabbath day for man, not man for the Sabbath day.
It’s their day too.
The will of God will never lead you where the grace of God won’t help you.
Choose the harder right, instead of the easier wrong.
~Thomas S. Monson
Wherever thou art, act thee thy part.
~David O. McKay
If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.
One of the most sincere forms of respect is actually listening to what someone has to say.
I am your mother, you are my child. I am your quiet place, you are my wild. I am your calm face, you are my giggle. I am your wait, you are my wiggle. I am you dinner, you are my chocolate cake. I am your bedtime, you are my wide awake. I am your lullaby, you are my peek-a-boo. I am your good night kiss, you are my I love you.
In December we decided to change it to our scripture board and we wrote scriptures on it that we wanted to memorize as a family. For a little incentive to memorize them, we let the kids pick a small reward each time they memorized one. Matthew picked a QT icee, Allison picked staying up an extra hour after her regular bedtime one night. Emilee is still deciding. They have to have them memorized to the point that I could ask them at any time and they could rattle it off without thinking.
Alma 37:35 …yea remember my son and learn wisdom in thy youth. Yea, learn in thy youth to keep the commandments of God.
Alma 38:9 …there is no other way or means whereby man can be saved only in and through Christ. Behold He is the light of the world. Behold he is the word of truth and righteousness.
