day 13...who has impacted my life most...

Of coarse my brother, friend and savior, Jesus Christ.  He saved me...He saved us all.  I love Him and My Father in Heaven.  All that I have been blessed with, this great life they've given me and even the trials they have so graciously helped me through, how could they not be the most influencial people in my life :]
I know my Savior loves me.  I know he loves everyone...more than we can even imagine :]  He made it possible for us to return to live with Him someday.  That's so comforting to me.


Joseph Smith.  What a man.  What he went through, how he was persecuted and what he eventually died for just to bring a peaceful and correct gospel back to the earth.  I can't imagine the strength of character and spirit he must of possessed.  I will never understand why people (of any religion) are mocked for their beliefs?  It's sad.  If it were not for this man, I would not be a Mormon Girl :]  I am proud to be a mormon.  I am happy to have the light of Christ in my life because of this man :]

The founding fathers of this great country I live in.  George Washington, and his efforts to forward this country, astound me.  I love my freedom and couldn't be more grateful for the sacrifices and fight the great founders of this country endured for all of us.  I am VERY influenced by our early american history.  I have to add our service men and women out there being brave, withstanding horrible situations and sacrificing it all!

Last...but certainly NOT least, my precious family.  I love my family.  I really feel like I would be nothing without them.  They support my crazy ideas, they don't care that I'm a little 'cheesey' sometimes,  we are each others best friends and we love to be together!  The example they are to me, individually and as a whole, is wonderful!  They each have strengths I can only imagine having.  Families are Forever...yay for me, cause I couldn't do this all without them! :]

  2. The founders of our country were all amazing. The way they knew things that would still govern our country today is just awesome!
