I am seeing them all over the Internet and my Facebook feed. Somebody has something said to them, they get offended because of it, so they take to social media to express their feelings. It could be about anything. The ones I seem to be seeing the most have to do with the body, or "body shaming."…

My children have seen me working out, and have wanted to get in on the fun. I want them to start developing healthy, happy habits, but they weren't going to be able to "exercise" with my weights. I also don't want to worry about them building muscle at such a young age. So I set…

Rejoice, O my heart, and give place no more for the enemy of my soul. 2 Nephi 4: 26-27 I know that there is…

Out of the Mouth of Babes A friend recently shared on social media an "interview" she did with one of her children. There were questions she asked, and wrote down the answers exactly as they were given. Of course, it was one of those share posts, so I took the questions so that I could interview…

I used to hate bananas, especially overripe ones. I thought they were slimy and disgusting. I would avoid anything banana-flavored, even candy. I even had a dislike for the movie Herbie Goes Bananas. Yes, I hated bananas with a passion. Over the past year, though, my taste buds have changed. Don't ask me how!…
