Dear Readers,

When I started teaching... I started reading. I read all the 6-8 grade literature and then more. I now LOVE reading and ALWAY have a book on my dresser. Reading lets my mind wonder into a new world without diapers and crying babies. But reading is more fun when you share. For this blog I will write about the GOOD books I read. I will write about books that are worthy of reading and ones I truly recommend. Enjoy your readings.

Standing for Something by Gordon B. Hinckely

This was our book club book for April.  I thought I had read it was then realized that I never had.  And I am so glad that Yvonne picked it for book club.  It is a wonderful.  First off.  It is written to the world.... not just Mormons.  President Hinckley talks about 10 virtues that will help our homes.  They are:  Love, Honesty, Morality, Civility, Learning, Mercy & Forgiveness, Thrift and Industry, Gratitude, Optimism, and Faith. Each of these was a great reminder of what I should be doing daily.  The book then goes on and talks about the importance of marriage and family.  Again, another great reminder of what I should be doing.  In the end, I was reminded of a lot of things, along with my love for our dear prophet Gordon B. Hinckley.
