¡Dia De Gracias 2019!- Week 23

Happy early Thanksgiving!!! I can't believe that it is already this time of the year. But a special shout out to my brother Braeden! I think you are going to be 22?? I honestly can't remember. But anyways, Happy Birthday Braeden! I sure love you! 

I love Thanksgiving, it really is my favorite holiday because it is really a time I get to think about all that I am truly grateful for. My family, Friends, and especially Jesus Christ. 

Jesus Christ is the only person that understands every single thing you are going through. And I am just so grateful for Him and all that he has done for me personally and continues to do for me every single day. The sacrifice from Him was seriously for every single one of my days here on the earth. And what a blessing I have to use His Atonement to help me feel better every day. 

You all are amazing and I feel so much better today! Thank you for your prayers and thoughts. I know that God lives and His Son Jesus Christ is my brother. I am grateful for my family here on the earth and that they help me prepare for my eternal salvation. 

I would invite all of you to send one text or give one phone call this week to someone you are grateful for. In the Liahona this month from the Church of Jesus Christ, there was a story of a daughter and her father who weren't on very good terms. But she ended up sending him a letter and just asked if they could work things out and just be on good terms. This father had had a very hard life and all he needed was a little bit of love from someone. I encourage all of you to be that little bit of love for someone this week by sending a text or shooting someone a phone call. I love you guys so much! 

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
