proud mama?

I am "mother" to four Mia Maids (14- and 15-year-old girls in church). This past Wednesday I took them all to Zupa's for dinner bacause I was so proud of them. Last September we set a goal, as a class, to read the Book of Mormon in 100 days. All four girls accomplished this goal as well as the other leader and me. So, we celebrated!

For 3 of those girls, it was the very first time they had read it! (It was my daughter, McKayla's, fourth time.) I think I could just burst at the seams with pride. It's not just an accomplishment, it's the knowing what that means in their lives. One hundred days of inviting The Spirit into their lives! One hundred days of drawing nearer to The Savior!

It's my very favorite book.
